Acupuncture for Fertility & Assisted Conception/IVF
Hello you
If you're trying to conceive and it's just not happening, then come on in.
This is for you
I understand the difficulties when you’re struggling to conceive, feeling stressed and depressed that isn’t not happening as you expected.
I know you’re all-consumed by thoughts of babies, ovulation windows, scheduled sex and a body that’s not doing what you want it to. It’s taking the magic away.
I hear the pain and jealousy that you wish you didn’t feel when friends, family, colleagues, anyone falls pregnant. It’s making you withdraw and fun feels in short supply.
I see you overwhelmed by all the advice out there, bombarding you from every angle – and yet nothing is working.
I feel these fertility fears and pregnancy struggles – the trying, the “failing“, the looming IVF and terrifying interventions in a system that treats you like a number. And the planned timescales slipping away, and the deep dark fear saying “will this ever happen?”.
It doesn't have to be this way
My fertility acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and integrative approach delivers amazing results. Wherever you are on the fertility rollercoaster, I’m here for you. You might be just starting out, or have been trying for a long time. Perhaps you've had investigations, a diagnosis, or been given that vague term “unexplained infertility”. You may have IVF in the diary, or been dealing with a complex condition like endometriosis or PCOS.
Wherever you are, you're welcome here.
With Acupuncture for Fertility, we'll help:
- Shift the underlying issues that are making it difficult for you to conceive and maintain a healthy pregnancy
- Bring your hormones into balance, boosting every aspect of your fertility and making you feel so much better
- Move your immune system from injury mode to healing mode (a vital step for pregnancy)
- Discover and clear any hidden infections that are getting in the way
- Nourish and balance the vaginal and gut microbiomes, the body's powerhouses for fertility and vitality
- Enhance the flow and quality of the blood & Qi, improving egg quality & ovarian function and nourishing the womb lining
- Calm any autoimmune or inflammatory responses that are working against conception
- Regulate your menstrual cycle, with healthy follicular and luteal phases, a strong ovulation, less pain and a balanced bleed
- Make significant health gains, which show your body's getting ready to conceive
- Get you back in charge of your body, your emotions and your options so you can start to feel like you again
- Navigate this complex area without the overwhelm, with someone alongside you every step of the way
- Empower you with achievable actions and improvements you can see and feel
- Build resilience and ease stress in a way that actually works (rather than just being told to stop thinking about it!). You’ll always be met with compassion, understanding and support
- Enhance your results with my bespoke herbal prescriptions, transforming your health and fertility and helping those gains to sustain.

Bex, treated for IVF support
Rachael, treated for IVF support and pregnancy
Acupuncture made a massive difference to how I coped with IVF physically and emotionally, and I strongly believe it contributed to its success. I also had three good labours and I believe acupuncture played a part in that too. Louise was a listening ear and amazing source of wisdom throughout the whole time I saw her; IVF can be a lonely process but she made me feel less alone. As I look at my three children I will be forever grateful for all that Louise did. I recommend her to everyone and anyone wanting to have a baby.
Why me?
Very early in my acupuncture career, I treated countless women who I felt were being ignored or poorly treated by Western medicine. I became incensed seeing those trying and failing to get pregnant have to wait for even basic investigations, and then entering a “one size fits all” system which was punishing and often ineffective. Broken women would come to my clinic, having been told they were a failure, encouraged to just keep trying after each miscarriage, and then, it seemed, blamed for their age, their weight, their… It made me sad and angry.
And I knew it didn’t have to be this way – even with my standard acupuncture training, I was seeing great results. And so, over 15 years ago, I embarked on my specialism in fertility acupuncture and then expanded to gynaecological issues, all of which I’m as passionate about today as I was then.
I regularly train with the very best in this field in the UK and internationally – in advanced fertility acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine (using highly effective protocols from the US), and functional medicine testing and inventions. If I say so myself, I’m one of the UK’s leading fertility acupuncturists and Chinese medicine practitioners.
I live and breathe this stuff, so I know all the medical interventions, tests and diagnoses too, including the latest research. I’m a great advocate to help you fight your corner so, if you need it, you can get the very best medical treatment for your specific needs.
And I still get the same joy when one of my patients gets pregnant, or when I meet their new baby – just as I did all those years ago.
