Fertility Acupuncture FAQs
How can acupuncture help with fertility?
Acupuncture helps by improving blood flow to the reproductive organs, reducing inflammation, reducing stress, improving sleep, and calming the mind. Acupuncture can also address specific concerns related to fertility like PCOS, endometriosis, and anovulation, among others.
Who Should consider acupuncture for fertility?
People who should consider acupuncture are those trying to balance their cycles to improve their chances of natural conception, or for those who are undergoing medical fertility treatments who have irregular menstrual cycles, painful periods, PCOS, history of miscarriage, anovulatory cycles or other diagnoses of sub fertility.
What can I expect when receiving acupuncture specifically for fertility?
Similar to other acupuncture treatments I choose the best points for you based on your constitution. Treatments for fertility are tailored to the individual and follow the menstrual cycle closely.

Danielle Dutra, R.TCMP, R.Ac - Currently On Maternity Leave
Danielle Dutra is a Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner (R.TCMP) and Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac) with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPAO). She completed her education at the Ontario College of Traditional Chinese Medicine with additional certification in Yuan Qi Classical Acupuncture & Advanced Scalp Acupuncture for Neurological and Psychosomatic Disorders. In the paradigm of TCM, the dualistic nature of yin and yang must find balance for the maintenance of good health. Danielle began the journey of self-inquiry over 10 years ago – exploring meditation, nutrition and fitness. Beginning in 2010, she dedicated 2 years to study the 'self-transforming' silent meditation practice known as Vipassana – which translates to "seeing things as they really are.” As she continues to explore more functional medicine modalities, Danielle’s thirst for knowledge on ‘how we heal’ is ongoing. As a practitioner, she views herself as a facilitator in the role of healing - the true healer resides within each and every one of us. She believes in connecting subtle communications between the mind, body and spirit to better achieve overall balance in health. |
