How acupuncture boosts fertility
In 1996 scientists made a discovery: a specific type of acupuncture improves the blood flow to the uterus and ovaries.
A healthy blood circulation is vital for making a baby. Optimal blood flow normalises reproductive organ function, brings more oxygen, delivers essential nutrients and hormones.
When you’re trying to conceive, you are bound to benefit from increased blood flow to your reproductive system. Studies have shown that increased blood flow to the ovaries results in healthier eggs and embryos, and specialised acupuncture improves the quality of follicular fluid.
Research has also found that this natural treatment helps your uterus to produce a three-layered uterine lining. This is the most fertile lining associated with greater chances to conceive both naturally and with assisted reproduction.
As a specialist at one of the IVF clinics in Auckland worded it, acupuncture may help to perfect your uterine lining.
Not all reproductive acupuncture is equally beneficial. When designing your treatment protocol we take into account what has been shown to work in studies and adapt this to your individual context.

Revitalising hope: The World Health Organisation endorsed Reproductive Acupuncture
“Acupuncture was reported to be effective in the treatment of female anovulatory infertility…”
“Acupuncture is worth trying in the treatment of female infertility due to inflammatory obstruction of the Fallopian tubes, where it seems to be superior to conventional therapy”
The above excerpt is from a book published by the WHO in 2002. There has been plentiful new research published since. And acupuncture use in the treatment of infertility is expanding a study by study.
Beginning with acupuncture early: Why it makes sense
At Dr Vitalis Acupuncture, we understand that the journey to parenthood is unique for everyone. And being a specialised reproductive acupuncture clinic, we have seen many patients regret not trying acupuncture sooner.
We mostly care for patients who have already sought help GP and specialist. Some of our patients have spent years trying various treatments without success.
Today we see more women are choosing this natural therapy as a first-line treatment before seeking more invasive interventions such as IVF, IUI and pharmacological treatments. And why does this makes sense? Taking your first step with this time-tested therapy early may help you conceive naturally and reduce the need of more invasive interventions. This proactive approach can open doors to a range of effective treatment options and important lifestyle changes, giving you the best possible chance to experience the joy of parenthood.
In summary, acupuncture for fertility is an effective and safe option. By choosing acupuncture first, you may avoid more invasive treatments and achieve your goal of pregnancy sooner in a much healthier manner, at a fraction of the cost of IVF.

What’s the best treatment option for you?
For some women optimising your reproductive health naturally with acupuncture and lifestyle changes is the key to successful conception. However, in certain situations, integrating acupuncture with In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), or other reproductive interventions may be the most appropriate course of action. When done correctly, this integrative approach has been shown to speed up your journey to conception, while minimising the side effects of Western medications and interventions.
Studies, such as a 2002 German study published in respected journal “Fertility And Sterility”, have shown that incorporating natural and gentle acupuncture can boost your chances of pregnancy. Other studies have also confirmed these positive results. Not only can acupuncture help increase your chances of success, but it can also reduce the risks associated with IVF, such as the risk of miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy.
