Male factor accounts for nearly 50% of infertility cases — yet it’s often overlooked.
Optimizing male fertility is just as important as supporting egg quality. When both partners are cared for, chances of conception and a healthy pregnancy increase significantly.
At Healing Blossom, Larisa extends her expertise in fertility acupuncture to men and people with sperm, leveraging integrative medicine and her board certification in reproductive medicine (ABORM) to tailor care for this group.
Why Men’s Fertility Matters
Male fertility depends upon three things:
(1) adequate number of sperm,
(2) unimpeded movement of sperm, and
(3) delivery to the waiting egg(s).

Beyond Fertility: Vitality
While fertility is a core focus, acupuncture also supports men’s overall health — from stress management, sleep improvement, digestion and musculoskeletal pain to optimal health, longevity and healthy aging.

For the purposes of this website, the terms ‘men’ and ‘men’s health’ refer to any person born with a biologically male reproductive system — with testes that produce sperm.
Not everyone who identifies as a man has a male reproductive system, and not every one who has a male reproductive system identifies as a man. For simplicity, these terms are used to identify those whose physical bodies have the qualities inherent to having XY chromosomes.
