Fertility Acupuncture

Did you know there is such a thing as Fertility Acupuncture?

Fertility is a huge area to cover. It is an area of great importance and can have massive life-impacts. Fertility Acupuncture focuses on helping two partners become more fertile.

Within Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture some areas importance are:

• Age of both partners
• Work-Life-Stress
• Sleep Quality
• Diet
• Menstruation history (of female)

Although this information seems random and unrelated, it is connected to fertility. These lifestyle choices affect the organs in charge directly of fertility or assist in the process. An initial intake is filled out to gather information about these organs. After the intake, the Acupuncturist creates a custom treatment plan around the imbalance(s) found. For Fertility Acupuncture there are a few organs considered to boost fertility.

Kidneys

The kidneys in Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine for fertility is huge. The Kidneys connect to the primordial waters. In particular, the Kidney connects to our Jing (RNA/DNA-bone marrow).  It is because of this, any weakness within this organ/element will affect fertility.

Spleen

The Spleen relates to Earth & digestion. It also relates to the center energy. The centering energy fights against gravity and sagging. It uplifts all the organs and muscles. In fertility, this is vitally important for the egg to uterus implantation and being able to carry the fetus afterward.

Liver

The Liver in Acupuncture & TCM relates to the smooth flow of Qi, blood circulation and the nervous system. It also connects to the tendons, stress and for females the menstrual cycle. Remember the above point of work-life-stress? Yes, the Liver is a huge influence on fertility. An overactive nervous system can weaken the Spleen and drain the Kidneys.

As you can see fertility is a complex subject. There are many things to consider and factors to consider. The good news is fertility is a warning light. It is because it is intertwined with many organs, there are usually previous health symptoms overlooked. Hence, when you're getting a treatment it is not just about fertility. Fertility is a gateway to healing overlooked symptoms.
