Acupuncture for Niddrie, a short drive along Keilor Road

Name: Qi Medicine Acupuncture Melbourne Fertility and Pregnancy
Price range: $

From Niddrie it’s an easy run along Keilor Road to our clinic in Moonee Ponds, usually around 10 minutes. We’re upstairs on Pascoe Vale Road, with a lift and parking close by.

Women from Niddrie come to us for help with period pain, PCOS, fertility, IVF and pregnancy. You’ll get a personalised plan, and we’ll adjust it as things change for you. Our treatments draw on Chinese medicine, which looks at how your sleep, digestion, stress and cycle all connect.

Never had acupuncture? Here’s what to expect

Quite a few of our Niddrie clients have never had acupuncture before, and some are a bit nervous about the needles. That’s completely normal.

The needles are very fine, much finer than the ones used for blood tests or injections. Most people feel a light tingle or nothing at all.
Your first appointment is longer, because we start with a proper conversation about your health, your cycle and what you’d like to change.
You stay in control. We’ll explain what we’re doing as we go, and you can ask us to stop or change anything at any time.
Most people find it relaxing. It’s common to feel calm, or even drift off, during treatment.

What we help with

Qi Medicine is among the few acupuncture clinics near Niddrie, in the Western Suburbs of Melbourne, to focus in the areas of natural fertility and IVF.

Our team is driven to help couples reduce stress through their fertility journey, reducing the impact this may have on their fertility outcomes.

For couples, we help promote a healthy pregnancy with stress and pain relief, lifestyle and nutritional advice, and guidance through the entire pregnancy process.

Most of our therapists are trained in the Fertile Life Method ©, developed by Dr. Kirsten Wolfe.

Each couple is treated based on their individual needs, and our goal is to uncover the deeper reasons why you may have not yet started a family. We then discuss what action you can take to overcome these issues.

The information gathered from this thorough assessment will inform our plan ahead, from which we provide you both with a clear treatment timeline and plan.

This timeline then helps to reduce the stress associated with the fertility journey, and will help explain to you in clear terms what is happening each step of the way.

It is our belief that all health professionals have something to offer you on your fertility journey, whether it be your GP, specialist, acupuncturist, gynecologist or massage therapist.

We find it useful to work in conjunction with your health professionals, ensuring all treatments support one another. At the end of the day, the goal of all of our professional combined efforts is for you to have the highest chances possible at falling pregnant.

The pain associated with endometriosis can be unbearable.
