Acupuncture for Fertility Support

At Nido Wellness in Petaluma, we are the only ABORM board-certified fertility acupuncturist in the Petaluma area. We specialize in integrative fertility care at the highest level of training available. Not only that, we really care and listen.

Trying to conceive can be confusing and isolating, and having an experienced acupuncturist on your care team means you have support, knowledge, wisdom, and a listening ear as you move through this important time in your life.

We guide you in getting to know your own body, your cycle, and fertility patterns. Our work together includes guiding you with a holistic fertility plan, which includes education, nutrition, supplements, lab review, and lifestyle recommendations, all the while supporting you with acupuncture and Traditional Chinese medicine. 

If you haven’t started trying to conceive, you’ll be in good company here. Many of our acupuncture clients come to us for preconception care because they have heard of the benefits of acupuncture for their fertility and, even without a diagnosis, want to optimize their fertility and regulate their hormones with Chinese medicine. We love being a part of your team either way!

Acupuncture for Sperm Health

We want you to reach your family goals, and we know it takes two healthy ingredients to make a baby. Whether you’ve been given a diagnosis of male factor infertility or you want to improve your chances for conception, we love to work with you to optimize your sperm health. At Nido Wellness, when we treat both partners, or you and your directed sperm donor, with fertility-focused acupuncture, we see success rates increase and pregnancy happening sooner than when just one partner seeks treatment.

Sperm health matters to the health of a future pregnancy and the health of your future child. Some reasons people seek us out for care are low sperm count, low motility, varicocele recovery, vasectomy reversal, stress, high blood pressure, and diabetes. In our sessions, in addition to acupuncture, we provide expert holistic guidance on supplements, nutrition, and lifestyle to optimize your overall health.

IVF and IUI Acupuncture Support in Petaluma

We love supporting you in preparation for and throughout your IUI or IVF process and use an integrative approach to complement your plan. Our fertility acupuncturists provide you with holistic and compassionate evidence-based care to increase your chances of a positive outcome. Our treatments complement and enhance your fertility clinic’s protocol, and we are happy to coordinate with local Bay Area fertility clinics so you receive the best care.

In addition to weekly office visits leading up to your procedures, we offer acupuncture on the day of your embryo transfer. Studies show that receiving acupuncture immediately before and after your transfer increases your success rates. If our schedule doesn’t allow us to be present, we will try our best to find someone for you.

LGBTQ+ Fertility Support

You deserve a space where you feel safe, seen, and celebrated. We are delighted to support our queer and trans patients in trying to conceive. You may not have any known infertility struggles, but optimizing your fertility, supporting hormone balance, and optimizing your overall health along the way can make a huge impact on growing your family. You need a caring and safe environment to feel celebrated and supported, and Nido Wellness is that place in Petaluma.

Whether you are hoping to carry a pregnancy, doing IUIs with at-home insemination, donating sperm to a friend or loved one, or wanting to do reciprocal IVF, our acupuncture and Chinese medicine care at Nido Wellness is here to help you reach your fertility goals.

Egg Freezing Support

Freezing your eggs is a great way to preserve your fertility when you aren’t ready to start a family. Before you do, you want to give yourself and your eggs the absolute best chance at optimal egg quality. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine play an essential supportive role in the egg freezing process by optimizing your fertility and your overall health. If you know you want to freeze your eggs in the future, start acupuncture as soon as you can. We want 3-6 months to help optimize the process for you and get you the best results possible to preserve your chances of a family in the future. Our team will guide you with Chinese medicine, supplements, nutrition, and lifestyle wisdom to support your fertility goals.
