Reproductive care for Women and Men

We know how to help you have a baby!

Trying to conceive isn’t always easy. And the costs of conception are both physically and emotionally taxing. We offer a personalized approach, tailored to your specific needs, and aimed to help optimize fertility. Fertility acupuncture helps restore the building blocks of conception by reducing stress, stimulating metabolic function, increasing circulation, and balancing the immune system. Dr. Atkinson is always available to explain recommendations and answer any questions you have about supplements, diet, or lifestyle.

Research has shown that acupuncture not only improves your overall health, but also delivers the nourishment and hormones that grow healthy eggs and a receptive uterine lining.

At least 50% of infertility is attributed to men. In fact, over the past several decades there has been a dramatic decline in male reproductive health.  Traditional Chinese Medicine has proven to be effective in increasing sperm count, motility, and morphology.  Men are often pleasantly surprised that treatments are relaxing and offer an opportunity to unwind.
