Where all the dots magically connect

Acupuncture can be a powerful ally for those undergoing IVF or IUI, offering support at every stage of the fertility journey. Research suggests that acupuncture may help improve blood flow to the uterus, regulate hormones, and reduce stress—all of which can support implantation and overall reproductive health. Many individuals also find acupuncture helpful in managing the emotional ups and downs that often accompany fertility treatments. Whether you're preparing for a cycle, in the midst of one, or recovering after, acupuncture provides a calming, supportive environment for both body and mind.
