ACUPUNCTURE for fertility

CLASSICAL CHINESE MEDICINE FOR CONCEPTION, CYCLES AND CREATION

Fertility is not just about reproduction — it is about how life moves through us. In Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM), fertility is a reflection of inner harmony: the strength of our Essence (Jing), the flow of Blood and Qi, and the resonance between the physical and emotional. Whether you’re trying to conceive, regulate cycles, improve sperm quality, or recover after loss, Classical acupuncture offers a highly individualised approach to support your path.

Fertility is understood through the health of the Kidneys, Liver, and the Extraordinary Vessels, particularly Chong Mai and Ren Mai. These systems govern the formation of Essence, the movement of reproductive fluids, the quality of menstruation or sperm, and the relationship between the Heart and reproductive organs — known as the Bao Mai in women, and its spiritual parallel in men.

 

Fertility is not just hormonal or structural. It includes how we store trauma, how we inherit patterns from our ancestry, and how our Spirit connects to the process of creation. Acupuncture creates space for all of this to be addressed — gently, respectfully, and effectively.

ACUPUNCTURE for chronic pain

RESTORING MOVEMENT, RELEASING MEMORY - A CLASSICAL CHINESE MEDICINE APPROACH
 

Pain held over time becomes more than physical. It changes how we breathe, move, and relate to ourselves. In Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM), chronic pain is not just a symptom to suppress — it’s a sign that something within the body has lost its rhythm. Whether the source is emotional trauma, past injury, autoimmunity, or something unnamed, classical acupuncture offers a layered, non-reductionist approach to help the body resolve what it has been forced to hold.

​

This work is not just about pain relief — it’s about restoration of sovereignty over your body.

 

Chronic Pain is understood in CCM to arise from four major roots:

  1. Stagnation of Qi and Blood — from trauma, surgery, or emotional suppression

  2. Cold, Damp, or Wind Invasion — often seen in arthritis, fibromyalgia, or pain that worsens with weather

  3. Latent Pathogens — old viruses or injuries driven inward by incomplete resolution

  4. Channel System Disruption — where unprocessed emotions, trauma, or ancestral burdens create blocks in the deeper networks of the body
     

Pain is not random. It is the body’s response to something unresolved — a story stored in the tissues.

TYPES OF CHRONIC PAIN TREATED
 

Physical & Structural:

​

  • Chronic neck, shoulder, or back pain

  • Joint pain (knees, hips, wrists, spine)

  • Sciatica and nerve-related pain

  • Pain following surgery or injury

  • Muscular tension that doesn’t resolve with massage
     

Systemic & Energetic:

​

  • Migraines and chronic headaches

  • Fibromyalgia and widespread pain syndromes

  • Fatigue linked to pain cycles

  • Long Covid or post-viral inflammation

  • Autoimmune-related pain (e.g. RA, lupus)
     

Emotional & Psychosomatic:

​

  • Pain connected to trauma, grief, or depression

  • Pelvic pain or genital pain with no clear cause

  • Pain “that moves” or shifts unpredictably

  • Pain that worsens with emotional triggers or stress

  • Pain experienced after betrayal, separation, or loss
     

All of these can affect both men and women, and CCM provides tools to treat both the surface expression and the deeper imbalances behind it.

HOW CLASSICAL ACUPUNCTURE SUPPORTS HEALING
 

CCM offers a multi-dimensional way to work with pain — not just where it hurts, but why it’s there, what it’s saying, and how it’s being held. The following channel systems guide treatment:
 

1. Sinew Channels (Jing Jin)

  • Treat pain in the muscles and fascia

  • Especially useful for structural strain, posture-related pain, or overuse injuries

  • Work on the body’s most superficial layer — ideal for men and women who carry tension in their form
     

2. Luo Vessels

  • Treat pain linked to emotional holding — especially when trauma has been stored in the Blood

  • Grief in the chest, heartbreak in the upper back, betrayal in the spine

  • Luo treatments help release pain from the past that has not yet been expressed
     

3. Divergent Channels

  • Treat deep, hidden causes of pain — autoimmunity, ancestral trauma, latent pathogens

  • Especially relevant for long-standing conditions that haven’t responded to conventional treatments

  • Divergents allow the body to process what was too overwhelming at the time it occurred
     

4. Primary Channels

  • Restore movement and function in the affected organs and regions

  • Used to move stagnation, clear Cold or Damp, and nourish weakness where the body has been depleted
     

Each channel system offers a different window into healing. Together, they form a complete map — whether the pain is physical, emotional, spiritual, or all three.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF pain TREATMENT

Classical acupuncture is not “trigger-point” therapy or a standard pain relief protocol. It is a conversation with the whole body.

Treatment may begin with:
 

  • Easing muscular restriction and improving mobility

  • Identifying and addressing the emotional or spiritual context of the pain

  • Restoring strength to organ systems depleted by chronic suffering

  • Treating shock and trauma that the body still holds — especially in cases of abuse, injury, or long-term illness

  • Supporting the nervous system in re-establishing safety and agency
     

Treatment is non-invasive, deeply respectful, and tailored to your body’s pace — especially important for those who feel vulnerable, guarded, or exhausted by ongoing pain.



A RETURN TO WHOLENESS
 

You may have been told to “just manage it,” or that there’s nothing else to be done. But in CCM, the body is never without wisdom. Pain is not the enemy — it is the signal. It’s what happens when the body is trying to hold on to something too heavy, too old, or too unresolved.
 

Together, we listen. And when the body is truly heard, it often begins to let go — not all at once, but in waves that bring back movement, clarity, and relief.
