Can acupuncture help you conceive?
How acupuncture could help you get pregnant and boost your fertility
Q I've heard that acupuncture may help me conceive. Is this true?
A. 'Acupuncture may help with conception as it works by balancing emotional and physical energy to promote and support ovulation,' says Toni Tucker from the British Acupuncture Council (tonituckeracupuncture.co.uk).
'Book your man a session too, as it can help improve sperm quality. It also relieves tiredness and nausea in early pregnancy, encourages breech babies to turn, and is useful for treating poor lactation and conditions such as mastitis, after your baby is born'.
Always ensure you consult a qualified acupuncturist. For info visit acupuncture.org.uk.
