I am a Fertility Support Trained Acupuncturist, with over 10 years of clinical experience and advanced training in acupuncture for fertility, pregnancy and women’s health.

Training & Credentials
Fertility Support Trained Acupuncturist • British Acupuncture Council Member (BAcC)
BSc (Hons) Acupuncture • British Infertility Counselling Association (BICA)
Acupuncture Fertility Network • Acupuncture for Childbirth Team (ACT)
My approach bridges traditional Chinese Medicine and modern reproductive science. Alongside acupuncture treatment, I regularly discuss hormone testing, semen analysis, AMH, FSH, microbiome testing, sperm DNA fragmentation and IVF protocols. By combining Eastern and Western perspectives, we create a personalised plan designed to support overall reproductive health, nervous system regulation and wellbeing throughout your fertility journey.
Fertility journeys can feel overwhelming and isolating. Many people come to me not only for acupuncture, but because they want help making sense of their situation. Whether you are trying to understand why conception hasn’t happened, preparing for IVF, navigating recurrent pregnancy loss or simply feeling unsure what to do next, my aim is to provide both practical guidance and supportive care throughout the process, helping you to be more informed, supported and confident in your next steps.
Why Fertility Work Matters to Me
Fertility work is deeply personal to me and has become the focus of my clinical practice over the last decade. Alongside my own. professional training, my own experiences have shaped the way I support clients, combining. evidence-informed care with compassion and understanding.
“Within minutes of meeting Charlotte, my husband and I felt reassured. Charlotte’s knowledge around fertility and health is outstanding, and I am still yet to answer a question she cannot answer. I feel so lucky to have found her.”

How Fertility Acupuncture May Support Fertility
Fertility acupuncture is commonly used alongside conventional fertility treatment with the aim of supporting reproductive health and overall wellbeing throughout the conception journey.
Some research suggests acupuncture may help support:
– Ovulation and menstrual cycle regulation
– Blood flow to the uterus and ovaries
– Endometrial development
– Stress reduction and nervous system regulation
– Overall wellbeing during fertility treatment
While no practitioner can guarantee pregnancy outcomes, you don’t have to navigate this alone. Whether you are trying to conceive naturally, preparing for IVF or recovering from pregnancy loss, my aim is to provide informed, compassionate support every step of the way.
I generally recommend starting treatment around three months before trying to conceive or before an IVF cycle. This reflects the approximate timeframe required for egg maturation and sperm development and allows us time to support your overall health, wellbeing and reproductive health before treatment begins.
Where possible, I recommend weekly treatment initially, as this allows us. to build a clearer picture of your cycle and provide more consistent support. As treatment progresses, appointments can often be spaced further apart.

Male Fertility Acupuncture
Male factor infertility contributes to around half of fertility challenges and is now one of the most common reasons couples require fertility treatment.
Common factors can include:
- • Low sperm count
- • Poor motility
- • Abnormal morphology
- • DNA fragmentation
- • Hormonal imbalance
- • Varicocele
- • Infection
- • Oxidative stress
- • Testicular trauma
- • History of illness or undescended testicles
Some research has explored the potential role of acupuncture and herbal medicine in supporting sperm parameters and male reproductive health, particularly alongside lifestyle and medical support.
Alongside treatment, we can also explore relevant testing, lifestyle factors and practical next steps, ensuring that both partners feel supported and informed.
Supporting Your Fertility
I offer fertility acupuncture appointments from clinics in Bath and Frome and work with clients throughout Somerset, Wiltshire and the surrounding areas.
Whether your goal is natural conception or preparing for IVF, I take a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach tailored specifically for you.
If you would like to explore whether fertility acupuncture may be helpful for you, you are very welcome to get in touch or book in an initial consultation.
“After two years of recurrent miscarriage, I came to Charlotte for fertility acupuncture. Her combination of compassion, calm and fertility expertise helped me feel lighter, sleep better and be more hopeful about the future. Within a few months I had a positive pregnancy test and I am now the proud mother of a bay boy.”
