Whether you’re 6 months in, 36 months in, or mid-IVF, fertility acupuncture works alongside your reproductive endocrinologist — cycle-timed, evidence-informed, never in the way of your medical care. Dr. Kim has coordinated fertility care with Tampa Bay REI clinics for 20+ years, and adjunctive acupuncture at embryo transfer is associated with meaningful improvements in clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates across multiple meta-analyses.
Symptoms we treat
Irregular cycles, anovulation, or short luteal phase
PCOS, endometriosis, or diminished ovarian reserve
IVF and IUI stress, anxiety, and two-week-wait insomnia
Recurrent pregnancy loss
Severe morning sickness or pregnancy sciatica
Breech presentation in the third trimester
Postpartum recovery, milk supply, and pelvic-floor support
Where conventional care falls short
IVF costs are real and emotional capacity is finite. Acupuncture adjunctive to embryo transfer is associated with improved clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates in multiple meta-analyses — and it helps with the anxiety, sleep, and somatic load of the process, which has its own effect on outcomes. Most REs support it; many actively refer.
Our approach to fertility acupuncture in clearwater, fl — ivf, iui & natural cycle support
Cycle-timed acupuncture (follicular, ovulation, luteal phases) — 8–12 weeks before retrieval is ideal for egg-quality support
Pre- and post-embryo-transfer protocols delivered within 24 hours of transfer
Postpartum: recovery, milk supply, and mood support
What the evidence shows
Multiple meta-analyses (Manheimer 2013, Cheong 2013) show adjunctive acupuncture around IVF embryo transfer is associated with improved clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates vs. control. ACOG acknowledges acupuncture for nausea of pregnancy. ASRM acknowledges mind-body programs improve psychological outcomes and treatment continuation rates. NCCIH lists acupuncture as a recognized complementary option for female infertility.

Fertility Acupuncture in Clearwater, FL — IVF, IUI & Natural Cycle Support — questions patients ask
Answers for patients across Clearwater and the greater Tampa Bay area.
Ideally 8–12 weeks before retrieval to support egg quality and uterine lining. If you're already mid-cycle, we can still help — there is strong evidence for treatments delivered within 24 hours of embryo transfer and weekly through the two-week wait.
Yes, with a trained practitioner. We use pregnancy-safe point selection and have extensive experience with morning sickness, pregnancy sciatica, breech presentation (best treated at 32–35 weeks), and labor preparation.
Yes. We regularly coordinate with Tampa-area REI clinics including Shady Grove Tampa, Florida Fertility, and Reproductive Medicine Group. We're happy to send a brief protocol summary to your RE so they can document it in your chart.
We're out-of-network with most insurance but provide a superbill for reimbursement. HSA and FSA are accepted. Membership plans lower per-visit cost for patients doing a full IVF-support series, and we hold transfer-day slots when patients give us cycle dates in advance.
Most patients describe a mild dull ache or warmth at the point — nothing like a hypodermic needle. Acupuncture needles are hair-thin (about 40x thinner than a vaccine needle), and most people relax deeply during the session.
Most patients feel measurable change within 3–6 sessions. Chronic or complex conditions typically follow a 6–12 session plan, after which we transition to maintenance care. Dr. Kim builds a clear, written plan during your free consultation.
We accept many major insurance plans for acupuncture, and our team will verify your benefits before your first visit. We also offer a structured membership plan and a Give $25 / Get $25 referral credit to keep care affordable.
