Fertility, IVF, Pregnancy & Postpartum Support

Trying to conceive, going through IVF, carrying a pregnancy and recovering after birth each ask an enormous amount of your body and your mind. So much of the focus falls on numbers, scans and dates that the woman at the centre of it all can feel overlooked.

Many women tell me they feel like a patient file, when what they need is to be cared for as a person.

Chinese Medicine has supported women through conception, pregnancy and the weeks after birth for centuries. It has always placed the mother's wellbeing at the heart of the process, including the tradition of the "golden month" of rest and nourishment after a baby arrives.

Each stage brings its own needs, and each deserves its own care. Whether you are preparing to conceive, in the middle of an IVF cycle, pregnant or newly postpartum, I tailor treatment to where you are right now. This may include acupuncture, herbal medicine where appropriate, and practical food and lifestyle guidance.

Wherever you are on the journey, my care works comfortably alongside your fertility specialist, obstetrician or midwife.
