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." Read the full show notes on Dr. Aimee's website Would you like to learn how to assess your fertility in 5 easy steps?
