Women’s Reproductive Health – Acupuncture & Infertility

The Acupuncture Center of Ann Arbor specializes in the treatment of infertility. Whether you are just getting started in your fertility journey, or are working with a fertility specialist, we can help increase your likelihood of conception and full term pregnancy.

Acupuncture can be used alone to increase fertility and achieve pregnancy, or used in conjunction with assisted reproductive technologies (ART), or in conjunction with in vitro fertilization (IVF), including gamete intra-fallopian transfer (GIFT), zygote intra-fallopian transfer (ZIFT), micro-manipulation, blastocyst transfer, and cryopreservation.
