Your Infertility Specialist

Before Eagle Acupuncture existed, there was a sentence that changed everything: “You may never have children.” I remember exactly where I was standing when I heard it. That fear doesn’t really leave. It just waits for you to find something to do with it. For me, that something was Traditional Chinese Medicine. Not a last resort, but a real answer, backed by thousands of years of practice, and eventually, by our own family.

People ask how a husband-and-wife team ends up running a clinic together for over two decades. The honest answer: we built it the same way we built our family, one appointment, one patient, one hard year at a time. Tony and I didn’t just find acupuncture. We found each other through it, and the courage to bet our whole life on something most people in Idaho hadn’t heard of yet. Family came first, always. The clinic grew up around our kids, not the other way around.

Eagle, Idaho isn’t a big city, and that’s exactly the point. When you’ve been voted “Best in Boise” for years running, it’s not because of a marketing budget. It’s because your patients stop you at the grocery store to tell you how their treatment is going. Thousands of patients since 2001. Some started as fertility patients and are now bringing their own kids in for care. That’s what a small-town practice of caring looks like.

Now our youngest has left for college, and the house is quieter than it’s been in over two decades. Nobody prepares you for empty nest, how it can feel like grief and relief in the same breath. Tony and I are learning, in real time, how to let go of the family-first chapter that defined us for so long, and reconnect to who we are as partners now. This clinic was always about family. Turns out that includes ours too.

If you’re in your own season of letting go, we’re right there with you. That’s what this Year of Connection is all about.

Stay tuned for more on this series.

Should you avoid ice water during menstruation? Here is what Traditional Chinese Medicine says:

According to Tradition Chinese Medicine, also known as TCM, menstruation depends on the smooth flow of Qi and blood. Cold is believed to slow your circulation, which may lead to cramps, clotting, or pelvic discomfort for some people.

That’s why many acupuncturists recommend choosing warm or even room temperature drinks during your cycle to help support that healthy circulation and cause more balance within your body.

TCM takes a more individualized approach, and many patients report feeling more comfortable with warm beverages.

✨Every body is different. ✨
Acupuncture treatments are personalized to support your unique health and wellness goals!

Fertility Is About More Than Reproductive Organs 🌸

When people think about fertility, they often focus only on the ovaries or uterus. But fertility is influenced by many systems throughout the body. Some of these include hormones, sleep, digestion, stress levels, circulation, and overall health.

Acupuncture takes a whole-body approach, helping support the systems that work together to create an optimal environment for conception.

Whether you're just beginning your fertility journey or exploring additional support alongside medical care, individualized treatment can make a difference.

Clinical evidence has shown that acupuncture is effective for regulating hormone levels, promoting ovulation, and attenuating insulin resistance in patients with PCOS now called PMOS. Acupuncture positively affects the production of β‐endorphin, which may lead to gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion and then affect ovulation, menstrual cycle, and fertility. If you know someone suffering from PCOS/PMOS encourage then to reach out to us for help.

Clinical evidence and several published studies has shown that acupuncture is effective for regulating hormone levels, enabling ovulation, and attenuating insulin resistance in patients with PCOS, now called poly metabolic ovarian syndrome, PMOS . Acupuncture has shown to positivity affect the production of β‐endorphin, which may lead to gonadotropin-releasing hormone secretion and then affect ovulation, menstrual cycle, and fertility. This has been proven in animal and human studies and in our private practice. We offer drug-free options that work for infertility. We also offer additional support enabling prescribed medications to work more effectively producing better results. Add Acupuncture to your current fertility plan for faster, better and healthier outcomes.
One of our PCOS/PMOS just celebrated her son’s first birthday and he was their fourth child we helped bring into their family tree.

✨ 3 pregnancies and a birth! ✨

The most recent positive pregnancy test is from a returning patient who had a difficult time getting pregnant, even though she was told, “Everything is normal.”

Unexplained infertility can be one of the most frustrating diagnoses. But we always work to find the “why.” As with the majority of our all-natural fertility successes, we focus on identifying and addressing the root cause so the body can heal and function optimally.

Because of this approach, many of our patients do not need extensive treatment to become pregnant the second, third, fourth, or even fifth time with us.

If you know someone who is struggling to get or stay pregnant, tell them about our fertility center. We would be honored to help them grow their dreams—and their family. 💕
