Acupuncture for fertility has virtually no side effects and instead has many positive benefits
Since acupuncture and herbs treat the whole person, other health benefits come as a result of optimizing fertility potential
Other health benefits: stress reduction, improved sleep, alleviation of depression/anxiety/mood swings, better digestion, less pain, more energy and a number of other health improvements as a result of optimizing system functions in the body
Acupuncture is almost painless for most patients, a small percentage of needle sensitive patients may experience very short & temporary mild pain that goes away within seconds
After acupuncture most patients report feeling relaxed and even euphoric!
