Customized Wellness Plans
Each patient starts with an “Initial Visit” during which your provider will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. During your initial consultation, you and your provider will review your detailed health history and decide which of the following tools (listed below) would provide you with the best support to meet your goals.
Our Unique Services
Custom Fertility Care Plans
Whether you’ve been trying to conceive for a few months or a few years, we can help you navigate which tools will best support you in optimizing fertility for your unique needs. Preparing the body for conception and pregnancy can get confusing, but our experienced doctors will take the time to review your case thoroughly and come up with a plan to help set you up for success.
IVF Retrieval + FET Support
The latest research supports that 10 or more acupuncture visits within 6 weeks prior to an egg retrieval may support optimal retrieval success. Additionally, acupuncture before and after an embryo transfer has been shown to significantly increase success rates. Ask us about our IVF retrieval and transfer support options!
Integrative Endometriosis Care
This 3 phase care plan is centered around the three cornerstones of sustainably managing endometriosis: immune and gut health, hormone support and blood sugar balance. Our unique approach to endometriosis was designed by Dr. Merritt Jones, who is herself an endo warrior. This approach can be done in conjunction with other therapies including excision surgery and/or medication use.

Lifestyle Evaluation
Along with evaluating your physical health, our providers will also address lifestyle, stress patterns, sleep, exercise and more to support you in achieving your reproductive health goals. Many modern day stressors like work and family life can feel overwhelming in today’s busy world. Our team will work with you to come up with a lifestyle plan to reduce stress, promote healthy detoxification, optimal sleep and a more mindful way of living.
Functional Lab Work
Evaluating lab work through a functional medicine lens means taking a deeper look into the sometimes subtle clues the body is providing. Our clinic uses traditional lab panels as well as functional lab work where necessary to help get a complete picture of a person’s health history. Lab consultations include lab work ordered through us or other providers you’re working with. For existing patients only.
Infrared Therapy
Celluma is an FDA-accepted form of LED phototherapy that stimulate the mitochondria of cells with red light. This is significant for reproductive health, because the mitochondria are responsible for producing ATP which is the main supply of energy for the cell. Therefore, the better-functioning the mitochondria, the more energized and healthy the cell! Celluma naturally optimizes cellular function to improve cellular health – the cornerstone of reproductive health and fertility.
