Fertility: Many couples are discovering that there are many factors that can contribute to difficulty in conceiving. Traditional Chinese Medicine tackles fertility like anything else, by restoring your body to its natural balanced state. Acupuncture can treat both men and women who are trying to conceive with or without IVF. Recent studies have shown that patients who do acupuncture concurrently with their IVF treatments are more likely to conceive than those who do IVF alone.
