Fertility Support
Parenthood: the adventure where no two paths are the same! We're all about embracing the uniqueness of your journey. We dive deep to craft a tailor-made roadmap that’s as individual as you are.
Are you looking to start a family now or sometime in the future? We can help you prepare!
Everyone’s journey to parenthood is unique. At OAK, we take an in-depth and qualitative approach to develop a customized plan that fits you and your life. We can help support egg and sperm quality, uterine health, as well as mental and emotional health. Our care involves natural, non-invasive treatment strategies that target the underlying cause of your fertility struggles. We provide proactive strategies to help you optimize your health, which may improve fertility and pregnancy outcomes.
NATURAL FERTILITY SUPPORT
Supporting natural conception is a great way to speed up the time to conception and ensure that you are reaching your genetic potential to optimize both your health and the health of your future child. Support can include a combination of dietary advice, the use of natural products, acupuncture, and lifestyle advice which includes stress management techniques and exercise advice.
IVF/IUI FERTILITY
Whether you are already working with a fertility clinic or need a referral to one, we can help!
The IVF and IUI process can be complex and confusing. We can assist in explaining the process and providing tools to improve egg and sperm quality for best outcomes (and potentially saving money by getting you faster success). The process, even with IVF and IUI, should be a positive experience that is about starting an exciting next chapter in your life. We'll develop a health plan that is science-based and will include supplements, acupuncture, diet and lifestyle changes.
If you are seeking IVF or IUI, an integrative approach that uses a combination of conventional medicine and evidence-based natural medicine will help to improve your success rates. Acupuncture, in particular, has been shown to significantly increase IVF/IUI success rates when performed regularly leading up to treatment, as well as immediately before and after embryo transfer. Antioxidant supplementation with specific naturopathic supplements has also been shown to improve IVF/IUI success. For optimal outcomes, these treatments should start 8-12 weeks leading up to your IVF/IUI cycle.
