Here is a link to a presentation from one of my favorite local Physical Therapists, Erika Johnson, a pelvic floor specialist. Her knowledge is vast and she is a terrific resource. Please check it out, there is much to learn!

I'm going to be totally honest here, when I started this work I really didn't know much about the pelvic floor. Like many of us, I was aware of the muscles in my core, legs, and neck but didn't really give much thought to the "down there" muscles.

Trying to conceive? Consider acupuncture to support your process. We have many years of experience in this specialty.

In my regular clinical encounters in the area of reproductive medicine, I frequently see fertility challenges linked to the declining quality and quantity of eggs. This issue can stem from various factors, each playing a significant role in reproductive health.

A lot of people are still not aware that many insurance plans cover acupuncture. We are in-network with BCBS, Tufts, Harvard Pilgrim, and Mass General Brigham health plans. Many other plans have out-of-network coverage as well. And we direct bill for you! Interested in acupuncture, but not sure of your coverage? Contact us and we will verify your benefits for you. Call 508-435-8184. We are here for you!
