Has anyone tried acupuncture to help conceive? I live in Auckland and wonder if anyone has any recommendations?

David Craddock or Chris Cull at Ponsonby Accupuncture Clinic were who I saw whilst doing ivf , I found them to be great 😊

Yes eventually- using our 9th embryo... I would also recommend going to see Pip Lodge from bloom massage. She died fertility massages, and has amazing success rates, after 1 massage I had a chemical pregnancy, then the next cycle I had 2 massages in conjunction with the Accupuncture and got pregnant with my son who is now 3 months old... Good luck 😊 I've also heard good things about mother well in mt Eden, but haven't used them myself.

I have managed to get an appointment with the acupuncturist David Craddock. Has anyone else seen him and how did you get on?
