Thanks for reaching out for further information on how acupuncture can support your fertility journey. Here’s your unique link to download a treatment plan protocol, better explaining what we are doing and why in your IVF/IUI/ICSI cycle. Be it donor eggs / sperm / same sex fertility support, this protocol is relevant for each person undertaking fertility treatment.
Ideally, we start treatment based on the lifecycle of the egg – so 120 days pre-your IVF start date as this is how long it takes to mature. However, each patient is unique, which is why we encourage you to reach out for a free initial consultation so we can chat further about your specific picture of health and make our best recommendations regarding possible treatment moving forward.

Acupuncture is a natural adjuct therapy that works alongside fertility treatment, so rest assured it’s not a one or the other approach and there is an abundance of growing research that support the efficacy of this combined approach.

Patient Testimonials
“The benefits were an almost immediate effect which include a better cycle length, much less and now manageable pain and no vomiting which is a huge change for me!
To say I was hooked would be an understatement, the clinic is a beautiful and calming space that is always spotless and the perfect temperature (a win for those perpetually cold!). Kimberley from the first time we met was fantastic, taking time to fully understand my needs and making sure I felt calm, seen and heard. She explained everything she was doing and my experience was super relaxing and enjoyable. “
