At our acupuncture clinic on the Gold Coast, we see a lot of mothers from the start of their fertility journey right through to post-birth and we pride ourselves in the care we give during this often quite emotionally tiresome time. The physical and mental depletion that new mothers experience has been labelled as ‘postnatal depletion’ by a practising GP in northern NSW.

Acupuncture for Stress Relief during IVF Fertility Treatments

Fertility and IVF treatments can be stressful for any woman but acupuncture has been shown to help reduce stress levels (Grant and Cochrane 2014). Here at Haynes Acupuncture Gold Coast we focus in assisting people going through IVF treatments. New research has shown that acupuncture helps to reduce stress in women during IVF treatments. Stress reduced significantly for women receiving several acupuncture treatments prior to the day of embryo transfer, along with acupuncture on the day of transfer (Sutton et al. 2015).
