This is Dr. David Cherry, and I want to let you know that you are not alone in your fertility journey.
Infertility can be the most devastating and stressful diagnosis a person, or couple, can receive.
Most of us assume, from the time that we are children, that we will eventually have our own children, and grow our family over time.
When told that the likelihood of that in diminished in some way, it is stressful and disheartening.
I am here to help you on your fertility journey, as I have done with hundreds of families before you.

Several thousand years ago, East Asian practitioners discovered that the body forms disharmonies as a result of the various physical and mental stresses of life.
Oriental medical theory explains these disharmonies as an imbalance of opposing forces called yin and yang.
This imbalance disrupts the movement of the body's vital energy (qi) along the meridian pathways, which are channels through which the body's energy is thought to flow.
Acupuncture restores the smooth flow of qi.
By inserting and manipulating hair-thin needles at specific points, I am able to return the body to its natural balance and promote the body's ability to heal itself.

Chinese herbs are often used in conjunction with acupuncture for added therapeutic effect.
While many cultures have herbal medicine traditions, the sophistication of Chinese herbal medicine is unsurpassed.
Chinese herbal medicine has a long history reaching back several thousand years, and the resulting system is now used to treat everything from the common cold to symptoms associated with cancer.
There are thousands of herbs in the Chinese materia medica, of which about 300 are commonly used.
You will generally receive a mixture of several different herbs in a formula that has been tailored to your condition.

Many first-time patients are concerned that acupuncture needles will feel like hypodermic injections at the doctor's office, but they won't.
The acupuncture intake process will involve questions about your current state of health, past illnesses, and family history.
Acupuncture works by activating the body's own healing powers, so it can be beneficial for many health conditions.

Acupuncture uses hair-thin, flexible needles that you will hardly feel when inserted.
When the needles are gently stimulated, they may produce a unique sensation that Asian medicine calls de qi.
Patients often describe de qi as a heavy, achy pressure, or spreading, traveling feeling.
You may also feel an "electrical" sensation moving down the meridian pathways, though this is less common.
