I’ve been a little quiet on social media over the summer, but behind the scenes it’s been business as usual in the clinic! ☀️🌿🐣

Now that September is here, I’m looking forward to being a bit more active online again and sharing more about how acupuncture can support fertility and reproductive health.

I’ve continued to work with wonderful women and couples throughout the summer, supporting them through all stages of their fertility journeys—from trying to conceive naturally to preparing for and going through IVF treatment.

If you’ve been considering fertility acupuncture, or would like to find out more about how it could support you, I’d love to hear from you. Drop me a DM or new patients book in via link;

I absolutely love getting feedback like this! 😍💙👏🏻🎉

This patient came to see me as her baby was in a breech position and she wanted to give moxibustion a go to try and turn him!

Moxibustion involves burning a dried herb called mugwort (moxa) near a specific acupuncture point on the little toe (BL67). The goal is to stimulate fetal movement and encourage the baby to turn head-down.

I always invite the partner into clinic too at the time of treatment as I demonstrate to them how to apply the moxa stick so that they can continue treatment at home for the following 5 days.

Please get in touch if you are currently between 34-37 weeks pregnant with a breech baby and would like to give moxa a go 👶🏻💛

This weekend I found an old notebook I had used to journal during my 2nd IVF cycle 🥹

Every day I would write down 3 things -

✨What I was grateful for…
✨Why I believed this IVF cycle could work…
✨Small things I could do for myself that day…

I’m not really a journalling kind of person but during that time, allowing myself to write down why I was hopeful it would work, and thankful for everything good already in my life, really calmed my fears, anxiety and spiralling about the what if it didn’t?!

Reminding myself daily of all the steps I had I done to help the process and other reminders of how to be kind to myself that day helped me to find perspective and quell the fears during those agonising days of waiting.

Did journalling change the outcome? I don’t know but I recommend it to all my patients after embryo transfer as tool to do daily to help with the anxiety and as a place to feel gratitude when it feels all consuming and overwhelming.

If you’re in your own two-week wait right now, be gentle with yourself. One day at a time. 💛

Supporting fertility is about more than treating symptoms, it’s about creating the best conditions for your body to thrive. 🌸

Fertility-focused acupuncture may help improve blood flow to the reproductive system, support ovulation, and gently balance hormones. When paired with simple lifestyle steps - nourishing meals, hydration, gentle movement, and stress management - it can give your body the support it needs on your journey to conception. ✨

Taking small, intentional steps today can make a big difference for tomorrow.

As winter eases into spring, it’s normal to feel a little heavier emotionally... lingering stress, low energy, or irritability can sneak in without warning. ❄️🌱

Acupuncture, guided by Five-Element principles, may help reset your system; easing tension, balancing mood, and supporting emotional resilience. Pair treatments with small, gentle rituals like mindful breathing, journaling, or a short walk in fresh air to nurture yourself from the inside out. ✨

Sometimes, the simplest acts of care can make the biggest difference.

Spring is here... a gentle reminder to nourish your body and support fertility naturally. 🌱

Seasonal foods, warm herbal teas, plenty of hydration, and gentle movement can all help create the best environment for your body to thrive.

Acupuncture may complement these habits by improving circulation, balancing hormones, and supporting your overall wellbeing; helping you step into spring feeling grounded, energised, and ready for new beginnings. ✨

Fertility is nurtured not just in the clinic, but in the gentle daily rituals we give ourselves. ✨

Taking time for a few mindful moments - a warm cup of tea, gentle yoga or stretching, journaling, staying hydrated, and supporting your body with acupuncture - can all help create a calm, balanced environment for your reproductive health.

Even tiny acts of care add up to powerful support for your body and mind. 💛
