Services
Acupuncture
Traditional acupuncture uses fine needles to stimulate healing and balance. We specialize in fertility acupuncture, supporting IVF/IUI cycles and treating hormonal imbalances. Research-backed applications include pain management, stress reduction, and pregnancy wellness. Treatments address root causes of conditions while providing immediate symptom relief through enhanced circulation and nervous system regulation.
Electro-Acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture combines traditional needle placement with low-frequency electrical stimulation. This technique enhances fertility outcomes by improving blood flow to reproductive organs while effectively managing chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and migraines. Clinical studies support its effectiveness in reducing inflammation and regulating hormone production for both male and female infertility cases.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy applies controlled suction to release muscle tension and improve circulation. We use this for musculoskeletal pain relief, respiratory conditions, and stress management. The treatment promotes detoxification and accelerates recovery from pregnancy-related discomforts. Sessions are tailored to individual sensitivity levels for optimal therapeutic benefit without bruising.
Gua Sha
Gua Sha employs smooth tools for controlled skin scraping to relieve inflammation and muscle tension. Particularly effective for cold symptoms, facial rejuvenation, and chronic fatigue, this technique stimulates lymphatic drainage and microcirculation. Practitioners adjust pressure according to treatment goals, from gentle facial rejuvenation to intensive pain management protocols.
Chinese Herbal Therapy
Custom herbal formulations address systemic imbalances and reproductive health concerns. We prescribe individualized combinations for menstrual regulation, menopausal symptoms, and immune support. All herbs meet strict quality standards and complement acupuncture treatments for enhanced fertility outcomes and long-term wellness. Protocols follow traditional principles adapted to modern patient needs.

Dr Taya Volin was recommended by my fertility clinic RMANJ. What a great, clean, professional place! I'm going there for few months already and it has been a good experience. Acupuncture is helping me a lot with stress, anxiety and also works for infertility. Very professional, relaxing, comfortable rooms and tables. Monika C.

I have been very pleased with my acupuncture with Dr. Volin over these past few months. It was my first time doing acupuncture and Taya made me feel at ease and continues to do so at each visit. Taya and her staff are wonderful and I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking into acupuncture.

I currently see Taya for fertility. I believe she definitely helped in my success of a successful transfer. It was recommended to do it before and after transfer of our embryo. I continued going to Taya after transfer because I absolutely love my session with her, I lay on a heated bed, get the acupuncture and my body and mind feel amazing after.

Report
I started acupuncture as part of my fertility journey while going through fertility treatments. Taya is so knowledgeable about what to expect, what's normal and taking the time to explain everything. I can't say the acupuncture itself was the difference, but I'm now 28 weeks pregnant and I know Taya's information, support and just having time to focus and channel my energy made a world of difference for my peace of mind throughout this process.

Dr. Taya Volin is a very knowledgeable and highly competent professional. Not only she addresses the issues I come with but she also provides additional and helpful advice on all of my questions. Dr. Taya is always very attentive and compassionate. I have had previous good experience with other acupancture doctors but was really amazed by the depth of her knowledge and skills on variety of issues. Highly recommend Dr. Taya Volin to anyone who is still in doubt.
