Toronto – Established fertility specialists, the Total Wellness Centre, are now partnering on-site with IVF Canada to offer infertile couples a way to significantly improve their chances of conceiving.

By combining acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with conventional western fertility treatments, average success can be increased to 65%, compared to 30% using IVF and other assisted reproductive technologies alone.

Use of acupuncture and TCM also helps prevent miscarriages and increases the chances of a healthy, full-term pregnancy.

“After treating women and men over the last five years, we have learned that collaborative medicine is always in the best interest of our patients,” says co-founder and patient of Total Wellness Centre, Angela Fu. “We are excited that patients can now receive the most technologically-advanced fertility care and holistic practices under the same roof.”

The Total Wellness Centre has been treating infertility since 2003. Their Chinese-trained doctors have a minimum of eight years of university medical education and 25 years of clinical experience. They use acupuncture and TCM alone or in combination with in-vitro fertilization and other western treatment options.

“Our doctors have been trained in both TCM and western medicine in China. This allows them to collaborate more effectively with medical doctors in Canada when necessary– something that sets us apart from other providers,” says co-founder Jonah Arnold. “We offer our patients true holistic medicine, the best from the east and the west.”

IVF Canada is a free-standing surgical clinic integrating the most advanced techniques available for the treatment of infertility in both women and men. They are leaders in the field of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), treating families since 1983.

The new co-located clinic offers the most comprehensive fertility treatment option available in Canada, combining acupuncture and TCM with conventional western medical treatments in one location, greatly improving accessibility and continuity of care.
