Fertility
Specialist Support for Natural Conception and IVF
If you are trying to conceive – whether naturally or alongside IVF – you deserve informed, compassionate support. I am a Fertility Support Trained Acupuncturist, with clinics in Bath and Frome, with advanced training in acupuncture for fertility. I work with couples at every stage of their journey: from those just starting to try, to those navigating unexplained infertility, recurrent pregnancy loss, or assisted conception.
My approach bridges Chinese Medicine and modern reproductive science. Alongside acupuncture, I regularly discuss hormone testing, semen analysis, AMH, FSH, microbiome health and IVF protocols. By combining Eastern and Western perspectives, we create a personalised plan designed to support egg quality, sperm health, endometrial lining development, hormonal balance and nervous system regulation.
Fertility journeys can feel overwhelming and isolating. My role is not only to optimise your physical health, but to provide a steady, knowledgeable presence – a space where you can feel supported, informed and calm as you move forward.
Whether your goal is natural conception or preparing for IVF, we take a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach tailored specifically to you.
If you would like to explore whether fertility acupuncture is right for you, you are very welcome to get in touch with me for a chat or book an initial consultation.
How Fertility Acupuncture Works
Fertility acupuncture aims to support reproductive health and improve chances of conception by:
– Regulating the hypothalamic-pituatary-ovarian axis
– Supporting ovulation and luteal phase function
– Improving blood flow to the uterus and ovaries
– Encouraging healthy endometrium lining development
– Supporting egg quality and sperm parameters
– Reducing the physiological impact of stress
Research suggests acupuncture may:
– Improve ovarian response and oocyte quality
– Enhance uterine blood flow and help to support a healthy endometrium
– Support implantation
– Regulate stress hormones that disrupt fertility
While acupuncture cannot guarantee pregnancy, it can help to create the healthiest possible internal environment for conception – whether naturally or alongside assisted reproduction.
Who I Work With
I support clients in Bath, Frome and the surrounding areas who are:
– Thinking about preparing for, or at the beginning of trying to conceive
– Experiencing unexplained infertility
– Trying again after miscarriage or pregnancy loss
– Preparing for, or undergoing IVF or IUI
– Exploring egg freezing or donor conception
– Navigating male factor fertility challenges, including low sperm count, poor motility, abnormal morphology or DNA fragmentation.
– Managing conditions such as:
PCOS
Endometriosis
Adenomyosis
Low AMH or high FSH
Fibroids or ovarian cysts
I work with both male and female clients.
Male Fertility Acupuncture
Male factor infertility contributes to around half of fertility challenges and is now the primary reason for couples seeking IVF treatment. Common issues include:
Low sperm count
Poor motility
Abnormal morphology
DNA fragmentation
Hormonal imbalance
Varicocele )a pooling of the blood around the testicles, which can lead to DNA fragmentation)
Azoospermia
Infection
Oxidative stress
Testicular trauma
History of illness or undescended testicles
Male fertility acupuncture has been shown in studies to increase sperm count and motility, as well as significantly increasing morphology and influencing sperm quality.
Alongside treatment, we can also explore relevant testing, lifestyle factors and practical next steps, ensuring that both partners feel supported and informed.
