Common fertility signs & symptoms I see in clinic:
• Irregular, short, or long cycles
• Painful periods or severe PMS
• Low AMH, poor egg quality, or low s***m parameters
• Unexplained infertility
• IVF or IUI preparation and recovery
• Stress, anxiety, or emotional exhaustion around trying to conceive
• Poor sleep, low energy, or burnout

Fertility is not just about reproductive organs. It also reflects how well your nervous system, hormones, circulation, digestion, and stress response are working together.

How acupuncture can support you on your fertility:
• Regulates the menstrual cycle and ovulation
• Improves blood flow to the uterus and ovaries
• Supports s***m quality, motility, and morphology
• Calms the nervous system and reduces stress hormones that interfere with conception
• Supports the hypothalamic–pituitary–ovarian/testicular axis
• Enhances endometrial receptivity and implantation potential

What the research shows:
• Acupuncture has been shown to improve uterine blood flow
• Studies demonstrate reduced stress and cortisol during fertility treatment
• Clinical trials support acupuncture as an adjunct to IVF and IUI
• Evidence suggests improvements in s***m parameters and cycle regulation

Acupuncture doesn’t replace medical fertility care. It works alongside it, supporting your body’s internal environment so treatment has the best chance to succeed.

Struggling with sleep lately? 😴

You’re not alone... many people experience trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up feeling unrested.

Fortunately, new research shows that acupuncture can offer real relief. A 2025 meta-analysis including multiple randomized clinical trials found that acupuncture significantly improved sleep quality (measured by PSQI score), reduced insomnia severity and improved overall rest — often with fewer side-effects than conventional sleep medications. (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40371085/)

At The Elmtree Clinic, I use gentle, individualised acupuncture protocols designed to calm your nervous system, harmonise your body’s energy balance, and support restful, restorative sleep. 🌿

If sleepless nights are draining your energy, focus, or mood... acupuncture might be exactly what you need.

DM me or call to book your sleep-support session. Let’s help you rest and wake up refreshed. ✨

✨ Empowering Women’s Health ✨

I’ve had the privilege of speaking to local communities all around Galway and the Islands on perimenopause and menopause... a topic that deeply affects so many women yet is so often overlooked.

In collaboration with , and this initiative is helping to open conversations, share knowledge, and empower women to take charge of their health and wellbeing during this important stage of life.

A huge thank you to the local community groups who hosted these events and welcomed such open and honest discussions 💚

Together, we are breaking down stigma, sharing wisdom, and supporting each other.

New Research: Acupuncture Eases Chronic Low Back Pain in Older Adults

A recent study funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and published in JAMA Network Open has found that acupuncture significantly improves physical function and reduces pain in older adults suffering from chronic low back pain. Participants who received acupuncture reported greater improvements compared to those who received usual medical care, which typically includes medications or physical therapy.

Chronic low back pain is a leading cause of disability worldwide, affecting over one-third of older adults in the United States. This study supports acupuncture as a safe and effective treatment option for managing this condition.
