Services
Fertility Acupuncture
Personalized acupuncture treatments enhance fertility by regulating hormones, improving blood flow to reproductive organs, and reducing stress. We combine traditional techniques with modern diagnostics to create tailored protocols that address specific challenges like PCOS or unexplained infertility while preparing bodies for conception. Our evidence-based approach integrates seamlessly with Western fertility treatments.
IVF Support
Specialized acupuncture protocols before and after embryo transfer increase success rates by 60-70% according to clinical studies. We collaborate directly with leading San Diego fertility clinics, offering onsite treatments during critical phases of IVF cycles while managing side effects and optimizing uterine receptivity through complementary therapies like moxibustion and herbal medicine.
Pregnancy Care
Ongoing acupuncture treatments alleviate common pregnancy discomforts including nausea, fatigue, and sciatica while promoting optimal fetal positioning. Regular sessions prepare the body for labor by ripening the cervix and balancing hormones. Our care extends through all trimesters with specialized attention to high-risk pregnancies and women with previous pregnancy losses.
Postpartum Recovery
Holistic recovery programs restore post-birth energy levels and hormone balance while supporting lactation. Treatments include nourishing herbal formulas, blood-replenishing therapies, and nervous system calming techniques. We address postpartum fatigue and emotional wellness through customized protocols that integrate traditional Chinese postnatal care practices with modern recovery science.
Functional Medicine
Advanced laboratory testing identifies root causes of fertility challenges including thyroid disorders, adrenal dysfunction, and gut health issues. Individualized treatment plans combine nutritional interventions, supplement protocols, and lifestyle modifications with acupuncture to restore systemic balance and optimize reproductive capacity through a comprehensive, root-cause approach.

Tamara is amazing! My husband and I had been trying to conceive on our own for 6 months before I began meeting with Tamara. Within 2.5 months, we got pregnant! Tamara is so encouraging and reassuring. She never wavered in her optimism that it would happen for us. I found myself looking forward to my appointments with her, and cant say enough great things about her and her office!

Tamara is the best. I started seeing her for fertility acupuncture and got pregnant after a very long struggle. Im convinced she helped make it happen. My daughter is now four years old and I still have regular appointments that I look forward to every time! Her space is lovely and welcoming. She spends a great deal of time getting to know her patients, I know because I have referred her to lots of my struggling to conceive friends who also love her! She also has a longer treatment time than any other fertility acupuncturist I have heard about which means a better outcome. I cant say enough

I am so grateful that I was referred to Tamara at Bloom Acupuncture for fertility acupuncture treatment! I started fertility acupuncture treatment with Tamara back in 2019 and my husband and I got pregnant late that year. We now have our beautiful 15 month old baby girl and Im back this year for Tamaras help as we are trying to get pregnant again. If you have never tried fertility acupuncture, I highly recommend Tamara.

Tamara is amazing. I came to see Tamara sometime in 2013 to start a fertility acupuncture treatment, when were given a 1% chance to have a baby of our own, by a few doctors. From the first day, her calming presence gave me hope. Our fertility journey was really hard and there were moments that I was ready to give up, but not Tamara, she always knew and kept telling me that it will happen. Our beautiful, healthy baby girl was born in January, 2016. Tamara has been part of my life as a mom to this day. I cant ever pay her back for what she gave me, but I will try!
