Fertility
At Five Seasons Healing, we specialize in fertility acupuncture serving NYC and surrounding communities. Whether you are in the planning stages, trying naturally, looking for complementary support for IUI and IVF, or struggling to conceive, acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be potent tools to help optimize your reproductive health.
The strength of Chinese medicine lies in its ability to treat the whole person. Promoting emotional and physical well-being can also improve the ability to conceive. Our mission is to strengthen reproductive health, balance hormones and address a wide variety of health concerns that may affect fertility.
All our clinicians strive to both nourish fertility as well as nurture the process of trying. We are a calm and knowledgeable voice in the often stressful world of fertility medicine. Under our care, you will not only receive our expert classical Chinese medicine guidance, but you will also benefit from our breadth of knowledge within the field of fertility medicine. We can help you try naturally as well as work with your reproductive endocrinologist or refer you to trusted sources in our network. We help our patients achieve their reproductive goals with grace and ease.
We take pride in working with a diverse range of family structures including individuals, partners and the LGBTQ+ community.
