Miscarriage Prevention in New York, NY
What causes miscarriage, and how can it be prevented?
How does acupuncture prevent miscarriage?
IUGR or intra-uterine-growth-retardation means your baby stops growing and you miscarry. This occurs because not enough blood flow gets to the placenta, therefore depriving the developing fetus of nutrients at which point fetal demise occurs. Acupuncture, through its ability to strongly enhance blood flow to the placenta, greatly reduces the prospect of IUGR and increases the chances of a successful pregnancy. Though we are always sad when a woman miscarries, we are pleased to report that many of our patients with a history of miscarriage, maintained an ongoing pregnancy and delivered a beautiful little munchkin while under our care. We are here for you.What can I expect from my miscarriage prevention plan?
The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness employs a specific acupuncture and herbal medicine protocol to address the threats of intrauterine fetal demise or intrauterine growth retardation and potential pregnancy loss. The miscarriage prevention protocol encompasses acupuncture sessions twice weekly while herbs are taken daily. Treatment continues for 13 weeks after pregnancy is achieved. After thirteen weeks, our patients graduate! All that’s left is to bring in the baby so I can give her or him a big hug!And significantly increase your odds of having a take-home baby.

Mike is a licensed and board certified acupuncturist as well as a board certified herbalist. He is a fertility specialist at The Berkley Center for Reproductive Wellness in the Midtown East neighborhood of Manhattan, New York.
My wife and I wanted to start a family. We tried, and we failed repeatedly. I was not an acupuncturist then and had no understanding or belief in it. That did not hold much weight with my wife. We both underwent testing and found out that I had poor morphology and poor motility, and she had anti-sperm antibodies. Nancy saw an acupuncturist and herbalist, who also convinced me to go for treatment. Three months later, Nancy was pregnant. We now have a twenty-nine-year-old, healthy, happy, and successful son. This is when I became a believer. I decided to go to acupuncture school. I went for four years for acupuncture studies and then two more years to study herbal medicine. I knew from the first day at school that I wanted to specialize in treating others who were suffering from the terrible and challenging battle of infertility. I have spent the last twenty-seven years making my dream come true by helping my patient’s dreams come true. I am so grateful for the path I chose. A life dedicated to helping others has shown me a satisfaction I would have never known. I am thankful to my wife, and I am grateful to my patients.
This experience led Mike to obtain his degree in acupuncture from the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine’s New York campus and his National Board Certification in herbal medicine. Equipped with the necessary license and fueled by an insatiable thirst for knowledge, Mike studied Western medical approaches and the ancient wisdom of Chinese medicine about infertility treatment. Through rigorous study and invaluable clinical experience, he developed unique acupuncture protocols and proprietary herbal formulas, tailoring them to each individual or couple seeking his assistance.

After childbirth, many new mothers experience a range of physical and emotional symptoms collectively known as postpartum conditions. Common signs include fatigue, sleep deprivation, mood swings, anxiety, depression (often referred to as baby blues or postpartum depression), and physical discomfort such as back pain and hormonal imbalances. These symptoms can vary in intensity and duration, impacting a mother’s overall well-being and her ability to care for her newborn.
Acupuncture and herbal medicine can provide significant relief for postpartum symptoms. Acupuncture helps by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and balancing hormones, which can alleviate mood swings and anxiety. It also improves blood flow and energy levels, helping to combat fatigue and physical discomfort. Herbal medicine, customized to each individual’s needs, can support hormonal balance, boost energy, and improve sleep quality. Together, these treatments offer a holistic approach to recovery, helping new mothers regain their strength and emotional stability during the postpartum period.
