Fertility & Pregnancy Acupuncture, Melbourne based

The kidney is a selfish organ – it prefers to keep energy to itself and ideally would like to hide under a blanket and hibernate through winter. It reluctantly shares energy with the liver (wood), however is greedy for the energy released by the lung (metal).

Its function can affect you physically in a significant number of ways – the trick is to treat it with herbal medicine, acupuncture, moxibustion (heating herbs onto the skin to aid healing), Qigong, Chinese massage and dietary therapy. Your lungs and heart will be treated as complimentary organ systems.

IVF Acupuncture Melbourne

IVF Acupuncture is an ideal assistant treatment for IVF insemination; we encourage women to receive IVF acupuncture treatments before and after embryo transfer, especially few hours before you receiving the IVF treatment.
It is also advisable for pregnant women to receive a pregnancy acupuncture treatment to prevent miscarriage. Treatment of patients undertaking fertility acupuncture may often last through week twelve to help prevent miscarriage, since most miscarriages occur within the first three months of pregnancy.
