IVF/ICSI SUPPORT ACUPUNCTURE
Support when you need it most
We know that travelling the IVF route can be a stressful, challenging and demanding journey and we are here to help support you in a number of ways. Preparing properly for assisted fertility treatments is even more important than if you are trying for a baby naturally. Our treatment programmes have been created with regard to evidence based protocols to help facilitate every chance of success. Fertility Edge Acupuncture provides individualised IVF support programmes ranging from Pre and Post IVF Transfer Treatments to Pre-Conception IVF Treatments for both men and women in the time leading up to transfer.
Female Fertility:
As well as maximising your fertility, our support also helps to smooth out some of the bumps in the road such as easing the symptoms associated with IVF medication and alleviating stress.
Male Fertility:
The treatments we employ have the ability to increase the parameters of sperm motility, morphology and count, thus aiding fertilisation and leading to viable embryos.

PRE-CONCEPTION ACUPUNCTURE
Begin the journey by building yourself up for pregnancy
If you have been experiencing problems getting pregnant and would like to keep trying to conceive naturally, then Pre-conception Acupuncture offers a natural way to boost fertility in both women and men.
Female Fertility:
This program is also an option for women who have been unsuccessful with IVF and would like to try a natural fertility alternative or for women who would like to ensure they are in optimal condition to conceive before trying IVF again.
Male Fertility:
We help men take the opportunity to address common male factors associated with infertility. The treatments we use are designed to increase the parameters of sperm motility, morphology and count. We have 2 male fertility programmes: The Pre-Conception Programme and the IVF/ICSI Pre-Conception Programme which are tailored to your specific needs.
FERTILITY NUTRITION
Fine tuning what you may already know
You probably already know you should be eating a healthy diet and that certain supplements such as folic acid are important. What we do is look at your specific circumstances and lifestyle (taking into account things like the amount and type of exercise you get, your stress levels, etc.) then develop a nutritional programme that is tailor made and fine tuned to your specific fertility nutritional needs and lifestyle.

PREGNANCY ACUPUNCTURE
Keeping you pregnant
We view fertility health as much more than getting pregnant. Carrying a healthy baby to term is indeed the goal at our clinic. Once you have become pregnant, Acupuncture can help maintain a healthy pregnancy by helping to prevent miscarriage and premature birth. We recommend continuing with your treatments for at least the first 12 weeks after conception in order to support foetal growth.
Acupuncture can also help if you are experiencing morning sickness, back pain, constipation etc. as well as other conditions for which you can no longer take medication while pregnant (such as coughs, colds, headache, etc.). Acupuncture is also used to turn breech babies.
Acupuncture is a natural and safe way of ensuring a healthy pregnancy.
