4 Ways Acupuncture Can Fight Infertility

Acupuncture reduces inflammation. Patients dealing with infertility are some of the healthiest patients already. Many have excluded gluten, caffeine, excess sugar and alcohol. However, inflammatory proteins still lurk in our bodies in response to environmental toxins and hormone fluctuations and work against our efforts to conceive. Acupuncture, with its consistent ability to release endorphins, promotes balance. A system that is balanced has lower inflammatory levels and fewer fluctuations between estrogen and progesterone that run amuck in conditions such as endometriosis. By reducing inflammation, a woman who receives acupuncture is more optimized to become pregnant. Her body is not engaged in cellular battles. Rather, it is ready to receive a fertilized embryo and allow it to implant without triggering the immune system to launch an attack.
