Specializing in Acupuncture for Fertility
Jennifer Nyberg, MS, L.Ac. Can Help You Become Pregnant and Stay Pregnant!
Preconception health is very important. It is recommended to begin preparing your body for pregnancy 3-12 months prior to trying to become pregnant. Creating a healthy and nourishing home for your little seedling to grow will help ensure its survival from germination to maturation.
It takes over 3 months to mature an egg to be ready for ovulation. During this time eggs are extremely sensitive to nutritional deficiencies, exposure to toxins, and stress. Following a wellness program including acupuncture and nutrition in the months before trying for a baby can improve egg quality. Better quality eggs lead to increased fertility, reduced risk of miscarriage and healthier babies. Jennifer will help guide you on your fertility journey. She will help you stay positive and assist you in making the healthy diet and lifestyle changes you want to make. If you have been trying to conceive for a while without success, you may be feeling discouraged. Jennifer is very experienced and successful when it comes to treating infertility. Whether conceiving naturally or through IVF & IUI procedures; acupuncture, Chinese herbs and proper diet can improve your chances for a healthy pregnancy. Through the process, you will feel cared for, understood, and supported!

HOW OUR FERTILITY WELLNESS REGIMEN HELPS:
Increases blood flow to the uterus and ovaries delivering necessary nutrients and hormones.
Improves egg quality and follicle count.
Thickens the uterine lining to promote implantation.
Increases the effectiveness and successful outcome of IVF and other ART procedures as well as treating the side effects that are common from the drugs used in these procedures.
Improves sperm count, quality, motility, and morphology for male factor infertility.
Improves fertility markers on blood work, such as lowered FSH. Acupuncture can increase blood flow to the reproductive organs, which dramatically improves a woman’s response to the hormonal therapy.
Acupuncture has been shown to balance hormone levels by moderating the release of beta-endorphin levels in the brain, which improves the release of gonadatropin-releasing hormone by the hypothalamus, follicle stimulating hormone from the pituitary gland, and estrogen and progesterone from the ovary.
Reduces stress and anxiety which can lead to hormonal imbalance, failure to ovulate, and poor egg quality.
Acupuncture has been speculated to moderate cyclooxygenase and prostaglandin levels in the uterus, reducing uterine motility to improve implantation rates.
Regulates immune response.
Improves digestion, mood, energy, and sleep.
Regulates menstrual cycles.
Improves overall health and well being to help naturally facilitate conception and a healthy pregnancy

“I started seeing Jen because I was having difficulty becoming pregnant after going through a miscarriage. In my case, about 7 months after miscarrying, I still did not feel healed from what my body had gone through. It was at that time two friends recommended I seek help from Jen as she had helped them with infertility issues. After my first appointment, I instantly felt a sense of relief and progress. She made me feel so comfortable right from the start. She really took the time to fully understand what I had gone through, how I was feeling, and developed a plan specific to my needs (through herbs, acupuncture, cupping, and changes in diet). I visited Jen weekly and after my 8th visit, I found out I was pregnant! I have continued to see Jen throughout my pregnancy and I am currently 28 weeks along with a healthy baby. I would not be where I am today without Jen’s help. She is amazing and I cannot say enough about how she turned a very difficult time in my life into such a positive one.” —L. Dowling
"Just wanted to let you know that we welcomed a little boy. THANK YOU again for all of your help and support, I truly believe you played a big role in making this happen and I am so grateful for everything you did to help me achieve this miracle!" —Sara R.
