ACUPUNCTURE for fertility
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
mental health
CLASSICAL CHINESE MEDICINE FOR ANXIETY, DEPRESSION, TRAUMA AND EMOTIONAL INTEGRATION
Mental health is not just in the mind — it lives in the pulse, in the Blood, in the way Qi moves through the chest and settles (or doesn’t) in the lower dantian. In Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM), our emotional lives are mapped not just as moods but as movements: grief descending, anger rising, fear contracting, joy scattering. When these movements are blocked, excessive, or unanchored, the spirit suffers — and the body begins to show it.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, dissociation, or emotional overwhelm, Classical acupuncture provides a profound, non-pathologising approach. You are not a diagnosis — you are a spirit navigating a terrain. My role is to help you walk that path with steadiness and strength.
Mental and emotional struggles arise when the Spirit (Shen) is not properly rooted or contained. This can be due to:
-
Weakness of Blood or Yin, which fails to anchor the Shen
-
Obstruction in Luo Vessels, where unprocessed emotional experiences are held
-
Disconnection between the Kidneys and the Heart, leading to loss of direction, will, or emotional regulation
-
Lingering trauma in the Sinew Channels, especially following shock or prolonged stress
-
Suppressed emotions or ancestral burdens that find no voice through the Divergent Channels
Mental health, in this view, is not about chemical imbalance — it is about resonance, containment, expression, and flow.

​
EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS TREATED
-
Anxiety and panic attacks
-
Low mood or chronic depression

Grief and unresolved loss
-
Irritability, frustration, or rage
-
Emotional numbness or shutdown

Overwhelm, dissociation, or feeling “not in the body”

Emotional trauma from abuse, neglect, abandonment

These experiences are not limited to one gender or age — they are human. And they are treatable, not through suppression, but through containment, expression, and release.

THE CHANNEL SYSTEMS OF EMOTIONAL HEALING
1. Luo Vessels
-
These are the vessels of heartbreak, abandonment, betrayal, and grief
-
They store unexpressed experiences in the Blood and tissues
-
Treatment may release tears, memory, catharsis, or simply a softening where something had hardened
2. Primary Channels
-
Restore movement and rhythm to the organ systems:
-
Heart for joy and clarity
-
Liver for free emotional flow
-
Spleen for processing and nourishment
-
Lung for grief and boundaries
-
Kidney for fear and willpower
-
-
These are often used when emotions are clearly linked to a dominant organ or pattern
3. Divergent Channels
-
Deeply effective for people with long-term emotional suffering, ancestral trauma, or emotional pain linked to physical illness
-
Often used when someone is “stuck” — looping in a pattern that feels bigger than themselves
4. Eight Extraordinary Vessels (especially Yin Wei & Chong Mai)
-
Address core wounds, identity struggles, and inner meaning
-
The Yin Wei Mai treats lack of containment of the Heart — ideal for scattered emotional states
-
The Chong Mai can release deep-seated emotional patterns inherited or absorbed
5. Sinew Channels
-
When trauma is held in the muscles, posture, or breath
-
Especially important in somatic pain that has no clear origin or for those with trauma histories
what treatment may feel like
Every treatment is a dialogue — sometimes with words, sometimes with pulse, always with presence.
You may find yourself:
-
Breathing more deeply for the first time in years
-
Feeling grounded after long periods of floating or rushing
-
Releasing tears without needing to explain them
-
Remembering parts of yourself that felt buried
-
Finally feeling held, rather than needing to hold it all together
