I'M SO GLAD YOU'VE FOUND STILLWATER!
Don't despair and please don't label yourself infertile-- you're just not pregnant YET.
​
There are many natural treatments that will help you increase fertility. Acupuncture and other natural remedies are very effective at helping couples with fertility issues. Stillwater has a very high success rate helping women conceive.
Fertility acupuncture always involves dietary recommendations, supplement suggestions and lifestyle advice.

At Stillwater, two-thirds of acupuncture patients who conceived did so naturally and one-third have conceived with the help of IVF or IUI.
What conditions may improve with acupuncture?
Stillwater works with patients who've been diagnosed with:
unexplained infertility (60% of diagnoses)
male infertility
PCOS
fibroids
endometriosis
blocked fallopian tubes
uterine cysts
frequent miscarriage
​
We've had success with all of these conditions, and give each patient an individualized treatment plan according to their unique diagnosis.

How does acupuncture work to increase fertility?
​
It's well-documented that acupuncture has a positive effect on fertility and pregnancy outcomes. Studies have shown that this is because acupuncture:
​
-
notably improves the function of ovaries, producing higher quality eggs. This is important for older moms wanting to conceive
-
balances hormone levels and regulates the endocrine system
-
increases the blood flow to reproductive organs including the uterus, which can increase the thickness of the uterine lining to help with implantation, reducing miscarriage
-
relaxes the muscles in the uterine wall to help ensure implantation
-
relaxes and de-stresses the whole body
-
prevents contractions early in pregnancy and post-IVF transfer which helps to prevent early miscarriage
-
increases blood flow in male patients to increase sperm production and the quality of spermatic fluid.
