Acupuncture for Fertility

I have supported countless couples with fertility struggles for almost 20 years. 

From the initial stages of restoring or supporting a healthy cycle after stopping contraception to prepare for trying to conceive, to "unexplained infertility", sperm issues, recurrent miscarriages, IVF support, single sex relationships, single person IUIs/ IVF, and everything inbetween, acupuncture can be an invaluable resource to help each stage of the journey go smoothly..

​

I understand the stress and anxiety that comes with trying to conceive; the frustration and grief every month and the feeling that time is ticking and everyone else is getting pregnant.  Fertility support, to me, is about helping ease that cycle and getting you in the best possible place to support a healthy pregnancy (and then looking forward to supporting you through that too!).  Chinese Medicine recognises that emotions and stress are just as important as test results and numbers, and that ensuring that your sleep and digestion and any other ailments are optimised we'll also be readying you for the next steps towards optimal fertility.  For those already on the IVF/ IUI journey we work alongside the scans and medications to support their effectiveness and ease any side effects and again,  to reduce the stress and anxiety that can come with these treatments.  

Please don't hestitate to get in touch to see how I can help, and please do start sooner than later- dose is important with Acupuncture as much as any other intervention, and the more time we have to prepare your body and mind, the better the results will be.

A recent testimonial:
4 Apr 2025, 21:34 (from C.O. , age 44)

"I had been trying to conceive for more than a year when I contacted Lilja. My journey hadn’t been straight forward and I was absolutely desperate and heartbroken after a miscarriage when I contacted her for help. I’d spoken to other acupuncturists in the area, but what I liked about Lilja was that she didn’t want to tie me into an expensive fertility package where I had to do a set amount of sessions and take lots of supplements.

On my first session, we sat down and I felt like Lilja listened to me. She went through all of my history and I feel like nothing was left unanswered. Lilja didn’t rush the session and I felt very comfortable. There was only one needle used and I was left on the bed to relax and listen to music. I could see colours with my eyes closed and I got so emotional. I’m normally quite an uptight person, always on the go and rushing around, but I left that session very calm.

I continued with three more sessions after this with Lilja and took some vitamins that she recommended along with some tea.

After 12 months of heartache and stress, I’m now sitting at home writing this testimonial with my beautiful baby boy who is only 5 days old! I am so grateful that I met this wonderful lady. Lilja seriously knows her stuff and I highly recommend her."
