Thank you for your help and encouragement. After 3 miscarriages, I didn’t think being pregnant for a full term was possible. You made it possible!

Acupuncture Treamtments and Support Services for Travelers


Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and acupuncture are proven
Fertility Acupuncture techniques for increasing the efficacy of IVF and IUI.

At our clinic, we treat people facing infertility using TCM alone, or in combination with concurrent western medical intervention such as IUI and IVF procedures. Acupuncture and TCM are natural and have no contraindications. Many, if not most western medical doctors are happy to work with acupuncturist because TCM augments any treatments they provide.

Acupuncture can help improve the success rate of in-vitro fertilization by:


  • Regulating the hormones to produce a larger number of follicles
  • Improving the function of the ovaries to produce better quality eggs
  • Relaxing the patient and decreasing stress
  • Increasing blood flow to the uterus and increasing the thickness of the uterine lining
  • Strengthening the immune system
  • Lessening the side effects of drugs used in IVF
  • Preventing the uterus from contracting
  • Improving semen and sperm to create better quality and quantity of embryos
  • Decreasing the chances of miscarriage

Please Review Studies On TCM And Infertility Effectiveness For Both Women And Men

On your next trip to Toronto for IVF or any assisted reproductive technology (ART), consider adding acupuncture to your treatment regime. Not only will acupuncture help you deal with the real stresses of western medical intervention, but it has been proven to increase the chances of conception when combined with either IVF or IUI. Make the most of your trip to Toronto by combining the best of both eastern and western techniques.

Total Wellness Centre is conveniently located a short five minute drive from Toronto's major infertility clinics and hospitals including Mount Sinai Hospital, LifeQuest Centre for Reproductive Medicine, Toronto Centre for Advanced Reproductive Technology (TCART) and The Hannam Fertility Centre among others. Scheduling your transfer for the morning, and an acupuncture treatment for the afternoon is the recommended treatment course.

For more information, please browse our acupuncture and infertility sections or send us an email. If you would like to schedule a consultation, please call us at 416-532-9094.

Combining Acupuncture with IVF Treatments

Whether you are a current patient of Toronto Total Wellness Centre or not, we would be happy to assist you with an acupuncture treatment on the day of your IVF transfer.
