Why Our Natural Treatment Works So Well for
Infertility:
Address the root cause
The process includes finding and attacking the actual root cause of your problem. Therefore, so many have found relief with our treatments, even though other therapies didn’t work. Even those with long term fertility issues have been able to conceive.
We use an all-natural approach that your doctor doesn’t know about
Your doctor may have told you that you will have to live with your problem, stay on medication to help alleviate the pain, or that “this is as good as it gets”. That doesn’t mean there isn’t a treatment, it just means your doctor has run out of ideas, or there aren’t conventional treatments available. We have found that many people who don’t respond well to conventional treatments often respond very well to our natural approach.
We help you awaken your body’s natural healing system
Despite what you have been led to believe, your body is not “broken” and is possible to feel healthy, vital, and joyous again. That’s because your body never forgets how to heal itself. It just needs the right support. Your body makes its own internal hormones, anti-inflammatory substances, and medicines, and our therapies help it do just that.
We keep it simple
Feeling better and addressing the hormonal imbalances and other issues causing infertility does not have to be difficult or take a long time. Our natural therapies, along with simple targeted lifestyle changes, and herbal therapies are very clear and concise way to attack the problems head on, and patients often experience additional benefits of treatments as well, including reduced stress, improved sleep, and increase in energy.

Here’s How Our Specialized Combination of Very Potent 100% Natural Therapies Work to Bring the Body to Heal Itself
(Each treatment consists of an Acupuncture treatment on both sides of the body combined with additional therapies of Cupping, Gua Sha, and Moxibustion as needed based on each individual’s personal presentation at time of treatment. Herbal therapies along with relaxation and stress reduction techniques are also implemented according to a person’s needs.)
GENTLE ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is one of the most powerful ways to naturally stimulate your body’s innate healing process. Then, it gets right to work repairing and restoring all cells and tissues, treating the root cause of a person’s health problems, thus its ability to help you achieve a better state of health.
CUPPING
Cupping is a form of decompressive therapy that can be used in conjunction with acupuncture treatments. It helps to promote microcirculation to help alleviate pain and promote the release of toxins from the body as part of the body’s natural healing process.
GUA SHA
Gua Sha is a manual form of therapy that involves applying gentle sustained pressure along the skin with a specialized tool. While it works in a similar fashion to cupping to help promote microcirculation, it also helps to break up scar tissue and connective tissue to help reduce pain and inflammation while increasing mobility.
MOXIBUSTION
Moxibustion is the use of the Chinese herb, Ai Ye, commonly known as Chinese mugwort, which is burnt on or near the skin. It is an effective form of therapy at relieving pain, promoting circulation, and even reducing swelling and inflammation.
HERBAL MEDICINE
Herbs simultaneously cure AND strengthen the body. This dual action is unique to herbal medicine that makes it very well suited to treat a patient’s underlying condition that can contribute to pain, stress, anxiety, difficulty sleeping, and tension.
RELAXATION & STRESS REDUCTION
When your nervous system is calm, the hormonal system, immune system, digestive, and circulatory systems all calm down, too. This means a more focused mind, more resilient immune system, less inflammation, better circulation, and optimal nutrient absorption.

Here’s How We Help You Achieve Relief
from Your Infertility Problems
Free Initial Consultation
At your free consultation you will meet the doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine to discuss your case, your medical history, and medications you’re taking, and most importantly YOUR GOALS. Dr. Katrina Giangarra, DACM, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M. wants you to be certain that her treatment protocol is going to meet your needs and that there is a HIGH probability of success for you – BEFORE we move forward to the next step.
Detailed Assessment & Treatment Plan
Once your FREE consultation is complete, and we agree to move forward, your next step is the intake appointment. At this appointment, Dr. Giangarra will do a detailed assessment of your symptom pattern, medical history, and other factors to determine the root cause of your issue and devise a specific plan of attack.
Your first acupuncture session will be performed at this time along with the necessary therapies to support the treatment such as cupping, moxibustion, or gua sha. You will be given a treatment plan with exact, easy-to-follow instructions. Your treatment plan will include dietary and lifestyle adjustments as well as key herbal formulas to address the root of YOUR infertiliy.
Active Treatment & Symptom Resolution
You’ll return for weekly visits to ensure close support as you begin to feel the positive effects of the therapy targeting towards balancing your hormones and strengthening your body’s natural healing mechanisms to combat your fertility problems. We want to make sure your treatment plan is yielding expected results:
Better egg quality
Regular menstrual cycle
Balanced hormones
Better quality of life
Transitional Care as Things Stabilize
Once we see stable improvements, we will begin to reduce the frequency of visits. This usually occurs after about 8-12 visits. Initially you’ll come every other week, then once a month for a couple visits, then you will no longer need regular treatments.
We’ll be here in case you ever want to come in for a tune-up or to address other concerns.
Of course, MANY of our patients do wish to continue with “ongoing maintenance” and we are happy to work that out with you, should that be your wish.
Taking Care of Your Friends and Loved Ones
We pride ourselves in the fact that many of our patients are referred to us by other patients or people in the community who have witnessed their friends and loved ones receive life-changing benefits from our work.
So, we very much look forward to helping YOUR friends, family, and loved ones on THEIR journey to a more joyful, energetic, purposeful life.

Common Questions & Answers
Does it hurt?
The needles are extremely thin, they are inserted with a gentle technique, and they cause virtually no pain because they are razor sharp. People often don’t even realize when the needles are being inserted.
Will I have to keep coming forever?
The majority of patients don’t need long-term maintenance. Once the condition is resolved, it stays that way. Many people opt to continue with treatments as they enjoy their sessions and multiple benefits they receive.
Will I have to spend a lot of time coming in for treatments?
Most of our patients achieve great results with weekly visits and following personal care guidelines. We can discuss this in more detail at your free consultation.
Is natural medicine REALLY powerful enough to resolve my fertility problems?
Absolutely. Natural medicine actually helps your body make more of its own medicine, which is more powerful and potent than any man-made medicine.
How long does it take to see results?
People often feel a shift after the very first treatment. Acupuncture is a very powerful way to stimulate endorphins release, which is the most powerful relaxing substance the body makes.
What are my chances of success?
Results vary, of course. That being said, the majority of patients report improvement in their health and symptoms associated with infertility problems. However, your situation is unique and once we meet with you, we will be able to give you our best estimate of time and prognosis of outcome.

Our entire philosophy begins with this. . .
"Our bodies are constantly trying to achieve a state of harmony in response to the surrounding stimuli affecting it. While at times the body can achieve a state of balance on its own, other times it needs additional assistance in regaining the proper balance to help the body heal. We help patients to heal and gain a sense of empowerment for their overall well-being as they achieve that balance between body and mind by creating an environment that’s comfortable and free of judgement throughout the course of their treatments. Our mission is simply to provide personalized care with outstanding results."
-Dr. Katrina Giangarra, DACM, L.Ac., Dipl. O.M., Founder & Clinic Director
Nonjudgemental & Supportive
Health care begins with honoring our bodies - from the nourishment we consume to our level of daily physical activity, to how we treat our bodies when something is wrong. Each person knows what is best for his or her body. While some may choose a fully natural approach, others may opt for a more integrative approach to their health care. It is not for us to judge anyone but to support our patients on a path to better health and well-being.
Honesty & Integrity
It is important to us to be honest and forthcoming with our patients, so they may trust us as we help them with their problems. Each patient will receive recommendations of personalized care geared to their optimal health. We expect honesty from our patients to fully understand the various factors attributing to their health.
Kindness & Compassion
We empathize with our patients’ health concerns and truly understand how people’s health and well-being can impact their daily lives. Each person is guaranteed one thing in this life and that’s the body her or she is given. It’s how they honor and care for their bodies and the external factors affecting them that impacts their overall health. Our goal is to help each patient achieve an optimal level of health.
Balancing Body & Mind
Health is impacted by both emotional and physical factors. It is important for patients to feel comfortable and happy. The rights and well-being of each patient are respected. Our goal is to help achieve a level of harmony that can bring an overall level of better health for each patient we treat.
