I encourage all of my patients to work with an acupuncturist
during fertility treatment.
Acupuncture is the "A" in my TEAM (Therapist, Eating well,
Acupuncture, and Meditation), and there are many evidence based
reasons to consider doing acupuncture during treatment. On the
blog, I'm sharing a conversation with Judy Tognetti, a local
acupuncturist.
Here's her explanation of how acupuncture works for fertility
patients:
"Fertility acupuncture is based on the concept of using the nervous
system, lymphatic system, and balancing hormones. By utilizing
certain points in the body, we’re able to adjust the hormones. If
we use electrical stimulation, we’re able to secrete
neurotransmitters. At certain amplitudes, we can secrete serotonin,
dopamine, whatever it is that we’re trying to secrete.
Other than that, we’re using needle points that are selected over
the ovaries or over the uterus to drive blood flow, increase
lymphatic circulation, and balance the hormones. Basically, in a
nutshell, that’s what it’s doing while we’re doing it."
