Fertility, Prenatal & Post Partum

Fertility support is a specialty at Dao Acupuncture. Monica Kim has a passion for enhancing fertility with acupuncture and herbs for both women and men. We use herbs, nutrition, and acupuncture to reduce inflammation and stress, increase blood supply and oxygenation to the body, and adjust hormones to optimize your ability to conceive whether naturally or using the latest technologies.

 

We work with couples and firmly believe that working together helps create a healthy pregnancy. We respect and admire the abilities of western medicine and use your western diagnosis (if there is one) to inform our treatment.
