Fertility

Studies show that acupuncture can improve ovarian response and uterine receptivity by up to 42%. Acupuncture and herbs are a powerful combination in preparing a woman’s body in the months preceding conception, while trying to conceive, during pregnancy, and postpartum. Using Traditional Chinese Medicine, we treat patients at each phase of the menstrual cycle in order to achieve balance and support the body’s physiological needs. Whether a patient is suffering from lack of periods, heavy periods, endometriosis, PCOS, fibroids, or other issues complicating her reproductive health, we can help.

And men, we have herbs and acupuncture to help you too. In fact, for many couples facing infertility, the issue is not with the woman. I highly recommend that both parties seek treatment for better success.

Treating fertility is complex and requires the same initial intake as a regular appointment plus an additional set of questions. You will find both of these forms on the New Patient Forms page.

  • Joanna is amazing. I went to her for help before and during my pregnancy. She totally put me at ease, and I felt wonderful during and after each visit. Joanna is extremely personable and instantly feels like someone you've known for a long time. I have recommended her to many of my friends and co-workers. I've been to plenty of acupuncturists in SF, and Joanna is by far the best.
