Fertility
Chinese Medicine takes a holistic approach to treatment. Treatment helps your overall health in addition to increased fertility and hormone balance.Â
Â
Most women will be able to conceive from our services, both naturally or with assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Â

Our patients can receive custom herbal formulas which make our treatments more beneficial and cost-effective than acupuncture alone. In research, Chinese herbal medicine has been shown to alter patients hormone levels which can improve fertility (Reference: Meta-analysis of 4200 women shows Chinese Herbal Medicine doubled fertility rates compared to conventional treatment alone). Over 80% of our patients seeking our fertility services have been able to conceive. Many people focus on acupuncture for infertility, but Chinese herbal medicine is more effective at treating infertility overall than acupuncture and it is far more cost-effective.
​
Acupuncture stimulates the pituitary gland to balance hormones while the Chinese herbs give the body the necessary nutrients to create those hormones.
The majority of women will need to be treated 3-9 menstrual cycles. It is best to start treatment as soon as possible, especially if combining our services with any ART.
Drs. Austin and Andrea Low have additional training in fertility.Â

Pregnancy Support
Our support does not end after you get pregnant. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can provide significant benefits to a pregnant mother.Â
Our services include western and Chinese medicine dietary and lifestyle recommendations. Acupuncture and many Chinese herbs are safe therapies during pregnancy.Â
In Chinese medicine, we strive for what we call a "Huang Qi (CHEE)" baby. This is a baby that is big and healthy (with lots of fat rolls!). It is our view that the larger the baby, the more nutrition it has received during pregnancy, which means the mother is also healthy. In Chinese medicine, each individual's diet is specific to their needs. It is not a "one-size-fits-all" plan. Every mother receives individualized care to maximize her and the baby's health and well-being. Â
