At Home Fertility Tools to Support Your Cycle
At Embrace Acupuncture, we believe that empowering you with practical tools at home can significantly enhance your fertility journey. While Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine support your hormones, cycle, and overall wellbeing, small daily rituals can help accelerate your progress, reduce symptoms, and deepen the mind-body connection that’s so essential for conception. Below are some gentle, effective resources we share with our fertility clients to support your treatment between appointments.
Castor Oil Packs For Fertility
Castor oil packs can be a soothing way to support pelvic circulation, reduce inflammation, and nourish the uterus. They’re commonly used for endometriosis, period pain, clotting, and sluggish blood flow. When used consistently (outside the luteal phase), castor oil packs may help soften pelvic tension, support detoxification, and create a healthier environment for implantation.
At Home Cupping for Uterine Lining
For those wanting to support a healthy endometrial lining, gentle cupping across the lower abdomen can improve blood flow and warmth. This helps nourish the uterine lining in the follicular phase, supporting thickness and quality. We guide our clients on safe technique, timing, and pressure so cupping becomes a supportive, confidence-building part of your cycle care.
Calming Grounding Moxa
Moxa (mugwort) is deeply regulating for the nervous system and reproductive organs. Using moxa at home can help warm the womb, ease stress, regulate digestion, and support overall Qi and blood flow. Many clients find it profoundly grounding—an anchor when the fertility journey feels overwhelming. We’ll show you how to use it safely and when in your cycle it’s most beneficial.
Men’s Fertility Optimal Semen Ranges
Fertility is a team effort. We provide guidance on optimal male semen parameters—including morphology, motility, and concentration—and simple lifestyle strategies to improve them. This helps couples understand their full fertility picture and make informed decisions together.
Printable BBT Chart
Tracking your basal body temperature (BBT) at home offers valuable insights into ovulation, cycle phases, and hormonal patterns. Our easy-to-use paper BBT chart helps you map trends clearly, deepen your body awareness, and refine the timing of supportive treatments and conception attempts.
