Essendon Acupuncture in Fertility and IVF

Our approach to fertility and IVF is natural through the Fertile Life Method ©, developed by Dr. Kirsten Wolfe and most of our therapists are professionally trained to use this method.

The Fertile Life Method is a holistic and thorough method that helps our doctors to understand the cause of delayed pregnancies and what you can do to help.

We are careful with our approach, using a 150 point check to determine what might be causing infertility. From an intensive initial consultation, we spend an extended amount of time discussing with you our findings, and what we can do to help overcome your fertility challenges. We may seem a bit obsessive in some areas, but with so much at stake, we don’t like to cut corners!

Our team of Essendon aupuncturists co-operates closely with your gynecologist, IVF specialist, GP, and any other health professional helping you along your journey, to ensure the best outcomes for you. We definitely believe each area of medicine has something valuable to offer you on your fertility journey.

Sadly, there is a predicted decrease in fertility rates in Essendon among women.  We hope to change this trend and be a part of the success stories of many couples hoping to conceive.

Acupuncture for endometriosis pain

Endometriosis is a medical condition in which tissue that normally lines the inside of your uterus (the endometrium) grows outside your uterus. Endometriosis can cause great discomfort and pain. In addition, endometriosis may impede blastocyst implantation, which can cause fertility issues for women.

Pain relief for Endometriosis According to the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne, endometriosis affects one in ten women. The cause of endometriosis is yet to be discovered; however, endometriosis has been linked to genetics. That is, if your mother or any female family members of yours have it, there is a likelihood that you may also develop it.

There are many options to treat endometriosis. The Royal Women’s Hospital website suggests that Chinese medicine may be useful in the treatment of endometriosis pain. What this means is that many women dealing with endometriosis pain could benefit from acupuncture.

At Qi Medicine, you will be attended to by professionally trained and registered Chinese medicine doctors who can help you relieve endometriosis pain with our gentle yet effective acupuncture pain relief techniques.

One great way we recommend to manage your endometriosis pain is with a  castor oil pack.  Watch our video on how to make your own castor oil pack here.
