Acupuncture
Traditional acupuncture treatments use sterile filaments to stimulate energy flow and balance bodily systems. This ancient practice addresses pain management, stress reduction, and various internal medicine conditions by restoring qi circulation. Patients often experience improved sleep, increased energy, and enhanced overall wellness through regular sessions.
Fertility Support
Specialized fertility treatments combine acupuncture with herbal therapy to enhance reproductive health. Our evidence-based protocols support natural conception and complement assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. Services include personalized nutrition plans, hormonal balance restoration, and stress reduction techniques tailored to individual fertility journeys.

Lisa at Harmony Health is absolutely brilliant! I have been seeing her for a few years now and totally recommend her and the clinic. Not only is she caring, warm, attentive and respectful to the issues going on but she also gets results and I leave the clinic in a much better place than I walked in. She is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to all things fertility, pregnancy and stress/adrenaline related and has many resources and loads of information she can share with you if needed. There is a sense of calm and peace from the moment you enter the beautiful zen oasis and everyone there is so lovely and helpful. I can not recommend Lisa enough!

Kellylee is absolutely fantastic! She supported me through IVF and was there every step of the way. I have her to thank for making my dream of being a mom a reality. I now have the sweetest baby boy. I highly can't recommend Kellylee enough.

Kellylee is a godsend. I first called her when my husband and I were prepping for an IVF transfer and had one embryo that was genetically viable and we were hoping to try anything and everything possible to make it work. After several miscarriages we had felt a bit defeatead and scared that it would not work. Even from that first phone call, Kellylee was so attentive and caring and I knew that I was in excellent hands.
We started treatment with her just about two months before the transfer. I attribute it working to her help and guidance. I always felt so relaxed and taken care of when I came in. She is so very warm and kind and always made herself available leading up to the transfer, checking in to make sure that I was feeling well and even on the day of we went in for a session immediately after. I knew in those early days that it had worked and I've told everyone that is struggling with fertility that acupuncture is an important addition to the process. My husband and I are so lucky for all of her help and so thankful because the end result is just tremendous. If you're considering acupuncture for fertility this is absolutely the place to go!

After years of fertility struggles, Kelly was the piece of the pie needed in order to build our fertility team. Over the years, and two successful pregnancies, Kelly has been my acupuncturist, therapist, and now friend. While treating my fertility issues and supporting my IVF journey, Kelly has been an intricate part of creating my family and I am forever grateful to her and Harmony Health.
