Secrets, Lies and Fertility
Over the last 15 years I’ve spent a lot of time listening to the stories of couples going through infertility. The one thing that’s really struck me recently is the shame and secrecy that still surrounds infertility.
I’m talking about the feelings many people feel but rarely dare to admit. A big one is the feeling of inadequacy.
“Will I be enough, if I don’t have a baby?”
The media is plastered with images of “successful” women, who “have it all” – The perfect job, the perfect husband, and two perfect children.
As one of my patient’s, Katie, said:
“You question your marriage, you question yourself as a woman. ‘Am I am ever going to be a mum?”
You can hear Katie talking more about her journey in this video.

Neuroscience of Fertility
Hi my I’m Michael Arnold, founder of Macu.
While studying Neuroscience at university I did my dissertation on acupuncture research. I found many studies that looked at the changes in brain chemistry when people have acupuncture.
Here's a link to an article from Time Magazine that shows how acupuncture affects the brain:
And here's a link to research that shows how the stress hormone, cortisol, significantly reduces IVF success. (Source: American National Library of Medicine.):
Who is this for?
To be totally honest, this medicine and the way I work is not for everyone.
The people who get real benefit all posses these three essential qualities:
1) Individuals seeking self-awareness: Do you yearn to understand your motivations, emotions, and limiting beliefs? I can guide you on a path of self-discovery.
2) Those open to exploration: Change requires venturing beyond your comfort zone. I can support you as you explore new perspectives and emotional landscapes.
3) People committed to the process: Lasting change takes time. I can equip you with the tools and strategies for sustained transformation over several months.
If this sounds like you I’d love to hear from you.
"I consider myself very luck to have conceived after 3 months of acupuncture treatment”
“I was able to enjoy my life through an entirely new perspective. One really important thing I managed to do was to SLOW DOWN in all aspects of my life, and just let go. My sisters noticed a massive change in my personality and were very pleased for me. I consider myself very lucky to have conceived after 3 months of acupuncture treatment,”

"Having our two boys is nothing short of miraculous"
"When I first visited you we had been trying to start a family for a few years with a number of early pregnancy losses. I came to the clinic as a last resort so we could feel that we had done everything we could before moving on (we had decided that we weren't interested in IVF). I was very sceptical that it would work. Within a week of starting acupuncture I felt much more energetic, motivated and on an even keel emotionally. A few weeks later and I found out I was pregnant. I continued with acupuncture throughout my pregnancy and had a very easy pregnancy, and a normal birth. We had a healthy baby boy.
Over the next three or so years we tried to add to our family, however we lost more babies early. We happened to be back in London for a few months and so I got in touch with Michael. "No pressure", I said, "but we'd love to have another baby. You've got five months!" Again I became pregnant within a matter of weeks and had another completely straightforward pregnancy. We now have two gorgeous healthy boys who are flourishing. We are so grateful to Michael for his help and expertise in enabling us to complete our family. Words really can't express how thankful we are and we feel that having these boys is nothing short of miraculous.”

“Several months of trying to conceive passed but no joy…. frustration set in, stress levels rose. I was finding it difficult to cope.”
Does this sound familiar? Many doctors will acknowledge the effects of stress on fertility but they don’t have any answers for it. They’ll most likely say something like “Just go home and relax”.
The link between increased stress and reduced fertility has been established scientifically, as this article shows:
www.theguardian.com/world/2014/mar/24/stress-infertility-women-us-study
However how do we use this information to help boost fertility? Its all very well saying you need to relax but if it were that easy you probably wouldn't be reading this right now.
Could this work for you?
To be totally honest, I have no idea. I don’t know your unique situation and I don’t know how committed you are to maximising your physical mental and emotional health.
To find out about your unique situation, I offer a free half hour consultation at my clinic in Liverpool Street, London EC2.
This allows me to find out about what’s holding you back and what’s realistic for your situation. From my background in Neuroscience, Five Element Acupuncture and 20 years experience working with infertility I can often see things your doctor might have missed. Like precisely how your cortisol levels and life situation are affecting your fertility hormones
I am very fortunate to work with some amazingly committed and inspiring patients.
This is not for you if you want a quick fix where someone else does all the work for you.
This might be for you if you’re ready to do what it takes to optimise your physical, mental and spiritual health and maximise your fertility.
