Does acupuncture help fertility and IVF success rates?

Yes. Multiple clinical studies, including a landmark study in the British Medical Journal, have found that acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer significantly improves IVF success rates. Acupuncture also helps with PCOS, egg quality, and natural conception by regulating the hormonal axis and improving blood flow to the uterus.

How many acupuncture sessions are needed for fertility?

For IVF support, weekly sessions for 3 months before retrieval is ideal, as egg development takes approximately 90 days. For natural conception, 8-12 weekly sessions timed to your cycle is a typical starting point.

Does acupuncture help anxiety and stress?

Yes. Acupuncture measurably lowers cortisol, activates the parasympathetic nervous system, and regulates serotonin and GABA — the neurotransmitters most directly involved in anxiety. Most patients notice a shift within 3-5 sessions.

Is acupuncture effective for back pain and sciatica?

Yes. Acupuncture has more clinical evidence for back pain than almost any other condition. The American College of Physicians recommends it as a first-line treatment before medications. A landmark study of nearly 18,000 patients found significant pain reduction versus both sham treatment and no treatment.

How much does acupuncture cost in West Los Angeles?

Common Questions

Frequently asked

Acupuncture needles are extremely fine — much thinner than a hypodermic needle. Most patients feel little to nothing. Some notice a mild pressure, warmth, or tingling that quickly fades. The vast majority of patients fall asleep during treatment.

It depends on your condition. Acute issues often respond in 3–6 sessions. Chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing maintenance. Janice will give you a clear treatment plan after your first visit.

Loose, comfortable clothing is ideal — it allows easy access to common acupuncture points on the arms, legs, and abdomen. Eat a light meal beforehand, and try not to rush.

Janice is an out-of-network provider. Many patients use FSA or HSA accounts for acupuncture. We can provide a superbill for potential insurance reimbursement. Contact us with questions about your specific plan.

Yes — acupuncture is very beneficial during pregnancy for morning sickness, back pain, stress, and labor preparation. Janice uses pregnancy-safe protocols throughout and has extensive experience treating pregnant patients.
