We offer holistic support for women at all stages of their fertility journey, whether you're trying to conceive naturally or through assisted reproduction like IVF. Infertility, unexplained or with any cause can be frustrating, lonely and emotionally draining. 

Having a loss at any stage of pregnancy is heartbreaking, and waiting for your body to adjust and your cycle to get back to normal can add so much more pain to that heartbreak. Acupuncture is very effective at helping you manage the sadness and grief, and physically to help regulate your cycle again. We understand that trying to conceive after loss can be an extremely emotional and difficult time and we are here to help in any way we can, even if thats just for a chat with someone that understands.

At Vale of Health, we have extensive advanced training in fertility and IVF and can make recommendations where relevant about clinics for Western medical support. We are also trained to look at any test results and suggest any further testing that might uncover things that can make all the difference. 

We specialise in addressing the unknowns; our acupuncture and nutrition services are tailored to balance your hormones, regulate cycles, alleviate any anxiety or stress, and optimise reproductive health. We aim to uncover subtle imbalances, helping to optimise your chances of conception even when traditional medicine doesn’t have the answers. Our compassionate approach also addresses emotional well-being, helping you navigate the ups and downs with clarity and support.

Men are often forgotten in fertility struggles. We understand that male fertility is a critical part of the reproductive process, and we provide tailored care that addresses common challenges like low sperm count, motility, morphology and overall health. Limited resources exist for men struggling with fertility issues and we can help guide you to the best testing and support. Through acupuncture, nutrition, and lifestyle guidance, we help boost male reproductive health in as little as three months, while also improving mental clarity, stress management, and overall vitality.

IVF can be overwhelming, both physically and emotionally, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Our holistic IVF support combines acupuncture, nutrition, and personalised care to help optimise your chances of success. From preparing your body before treatment to supporting you through each stage of the process, we’re here to guide and support you. We have done extensive training in IVF acupuncture and work with clients going through NHS or private fertility treatments with a deep understanding of how to navigate both systems. We help guide you on when it’s time to get additional testing and how to incorporate an IVF schedule into your already busy work/life schedule. 

Acupuncture for IVF has been well researched, and results show that regular acupuncture treatments can increase your AMH, thicken your endometrial lining, and improve your chance of a successful pregnancy with IVF by more than 30%. Acupuncture isn’t just about the numbers though, it’s also there to calm your body and mind, during what is already a difficult and stressful time.

Egg freezing can be an empowering option for women planning for the future. We offer tailored acupuncture and nutritional guidance to support your body before, during, and after the egg retrieval process.

Pregnancy can be a time of both joy and challenge, and we’re here to help you through it. Acupuncture during pregnancy is safe and effective at a time when normal medication is often not permitted. We see clients in all different stages of pregnancy helping relieve symptoms such as nausea, heartburn, sciatica, back pain, and fatigue. Acupuncture is helpful for birth preparation, helping soften your cervix, to turn a breech baby or induce labour naturally. We support you through each trimester, offering personalised treatments that promote a healthy pregnancy for both you and your baby.

The postpartum period is one of the most transformative times in a woman’s life. We’re here to help ease the physical and emotional recovery process. Our acupuncture and nutrition services focus on restoring your energy, breastfeeding support (including increasing milk supply and mastitis), rebalancing your hormones, and supporting emotional well-being as you adjust to life with your new baby.

Getting a PCOS diagnosis can be scary - especially if you are thinking about trying to conceive. PCOS is a complex condition with a huge range of different symptoms. Our nutrition and acupuncture treatments will help you uncover the root cause of your PCOS, and in doing so help regulate your menstrual cycle and get your ovulating regularly, facilitating natural conception if that is your goal. The treatments will also decrease inflammation, support weight loss, regulate blood sugar, and target hair loss, acne and insulin resistance. PCOS women also have higher rates of mental health, digestive and sleep issues and with our treatments these will all improve too. Having an irregular period alongside all the physical symptoms of PCOS can be lonely and hard. We understand how difficult the many facets of PCOS can be, and we are here to support you through it all.

Public awareness of Endometriosis and Fibroids is increasing, and getting a diagnosis can feel like a huge relief after years of suffering. Unfortunately, however, the Western medical treatment options for these conditions are still limited or extremely invasive. Luckily, with TCM and naturopathic nutrition, we can help you manage your symptoms without aggressive treatment options. We will simultaneously target not only heavy or painful periods, but also the other symptoms that arise with endometriosis and fibroids like digestive and sleep issues, or cystic hormonal acne. If pregnancy is your goal, we know how to help with that too. Our holistic treatments combine acupuncture and nutrition to regulate hormones, reduce inflammation, alleviate any anxiety or depression, and improve overall reproductive health. We’re here to support you through the ups and downs of managing these conditions.

Living with digestive disorder can be a massive challenge that can be lonely, debilitating and embarrassing. 

IBS - Irritable Bowel Syndrome, is an umbrella term for a range of digestive issues, and often getting a diagnosis doesn’t really lead to any helpful treatment options. 

SIBO - Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth, is rarely diagnosed at all, and even when it is - a course of antibiotics doesn’t go a very long way. 

IBD - Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease) can be really scary; being told you have a lifelong condition that can lead to surgery or a stoma bag feels incomprehensible. That is where we come in. Traditional Chinese Medicine doesn’t care what your western medical diagnosis is - it lets us treat your personal symptoms and gets your digestion working as it should.

We understand the multidimensional facets of constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, reflux and the rest. We know that stress or anxiety can make your symptoms flare up - so we help you manage that too. We understand the side effects of medications like steroids and immunosuppressants and know that these can be just as bad as the condition itself, acupuncture can also help with these. Our holistic treatments are designed to regulate your bowels, decrease the unwanted inflammation in your body, and make sure you understand nutritionally how to manage your conditions so that you never have to worry about a flare up again.

At Vale of Health, we understand how overwhelming it can be to receive a lifelong autoimmune diagnosis. We know how draining it is to live in fear of flare-ups, and how these conditions can take a toll on every part of your life—physically, mentally, and emotionally. That’s why we’re here to offer a holistic approach that doesn’t just focus on managing your symptoms, but also helps support your overall well-being, including any side effects from medications like steroids, such as moon face, anxiety, and weight changes.

We work with you to create a personalised plan that combines acupuncture and naturopathic nutrition to address any symptoms you may be experiencing. We see a wide range of autoimmune conditions, and the beauty of Traditional Chinese Medicine is that, unlike Western medicine, it isn’t restricted by a specific diagnosis. Instead, we look at your unique symptoms, personal history, and all the systems of your body, allowing us to develop a truly holistic approach. Our goal is to identify and address the underlying imbalances, so you can feel your best and live a life free from the constraints of chronic symptoms.
