Fertility & Pregnancy Support
For over 25 years, I’ve helped individuals and couples move through the fertility journey with more clarity, confidence, and support. Whether you’re trying to conceive naturally or working with a fertility clinic, acupuncture can play a meaningful role in balancing hormones, improving circulation, and reducing the stress that can affect conception.
​
My approach combines acupuncture, functional medicine, and advanced low-level laser therapy to support every phase of your fertility journey.

​How Acupuncture Supports Fertility
​
Acupuncture has been shown in numerous studies to help:
• Improve blood flow to the uterus and ovaries
• Enhance egg quality and endometrial receptivity
• Regulate ovulation and support predictable cycles
• Reduce uterine cramping and spasms
• Improve luteal phase health
• Lower stress hormones and support emotional well-being
​
Whether you’re at the beginning of your fertility journey or already working closely with a clinic, acupuncture can help your body function at its best during this important time.

Advanced Laser Therapy for Fertility
​
For the past 15 years, I’ve specialized in using low-level laser therapy (also known as photobiomodulation) to support fertility and improve egg quality. I created one of the first fertility-focused laser acupuncture programs in the U.S., and I continue to stay at the forefront of this research-based, non-invasive treatment.
​
Studies from Denmark, Japan, and beyond show that laser therapy may significantly increase pregnancy rates—particularly for women undergoing IVF or those with diminished ovarian reserve.

Pregnancy Support
​
Acupuncture can also support a healthy, more comfortable pregnancy by helping relieve:
• Morning sickness, fatigue, and acid reflux
• Sciatica, back pain, carpal tunnel, and swelling
• Anxiety, insomnia, and stress
• Discomfort as the body prepares for labor
​
I also offer gentle techniques that may assist with turning breech babies and preparing the body for a smoother birth.
