Can Acupuncture Boost Fertility?
I'm excited to welcome Mike Berkley to the podcast. We’re digging into how acupuncture can boost fertility. Founder and director of The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness, Mike Berkley is licensed and Board Certified in Acupuncture in New York State and certified in Chinese herbology by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Mike graduated from The Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in New York in 1996, and he has been treating reproductive disorders since then. Mike is the first acupuncturist/herbalist in the United States to work exclusively in the field of reproductive medicine. Check out his website at: https://www.berkleycenter.com Studies prove that using acupuncture pre and post transfer increase the success of IVF. We love acupuncture and recommend it to our clients. However it is very important to select a practitioner who is experienced with infertility. Check out our blog here for more details about TCM and acupuncture. It is especially important to ensure that the Chinese herbs you are using are high quality. In this episode you'll learn: 1) How acupuncture helps with infertility. Specifically we discuss egg quality, irregular periods, short luteal phase, PMS, male factor infertility (low motility, DNA fragmentation) 2) Qualifications to look for in a practitioner. Recommended frequency of treatment. How long treatment is recommended to prevent miscarriage. 3) We discuss the importance of obtaining high quality Chinese herbs. This is where many people go wrong. Many herbs can be contaminated with pesticides and heavy metals which may be harmful for reproductive health. (We share exactly how to source high quality herbs).
