Using Acupuncture to Improve the Success Rates of IVF

Most of us are aware of the scientific research articles that were published in esteemed journals such as Fertility and Sterility and BMJ showing how patients receiving acupuncture before and after IVF transfer improved the success rates of IVF. Most of us talk to our fertility patients about these studies. Most of us employ this practice in our clinics—we see our patients right before and after IVF transfer and follow a similar point prescription to the one depicted in the research papers. And, when we are treating our fertility patients for months or longer and they are faced with the IVF, we are there to support them and guide them.

But, not all of the patients coming to see us for IVF support have been patients that we have been working with for months. A lot of the IVF patients we see in our clinics are coming in specifically for acupuncture support with IVF.

Acupuncture and TCM's Historical Perspectives

One of the situations we will encounter on our journey when studying acupuncture and TCM will be references to a vast variety of physicians, emperors, authors, masters, teachers and others who contributed greatly by way of manuscripts, books, stories, treatises, observations, collections, writings and developments of these two healing arts. In order to better appreciate the history of acupuncture, the Chinese Dynasties are extremely important to know as a reference tool.

Ayurvedic Medicine, Chinese Medicine, and Mayan Perspectives

In many cultures consciousness is accepted as part of everyday existence and even relied upon and applied as an integral part of the medical diagnosis to counterbalance disease. Elevation of consciousness (increasing one's frequency, vibrational level, in which they resonate) is seen within numerous cultures as the Dantian centers (chakras) in Chinese Medicine, Cycle of 20 sacred Suns in Mayan and 2012 end date of Mayan Calendar, Hopi/Tibetan Time of Never Ending Peace, and the list goes on.
