Mel Hackwell is an experienced, licensed Fertility Support Trained Acupuncturist and Fertility Coach who provides complementary support to people throughout their fertility journey. Taking a whole-person approach, Mel considers each individual’s fertility history, menstrual cycle, general health, lifestyle, stress and emotional wellbeing before tailoring her support. She works with people who are trying to conceive naturally, preparing for IVF or other fertility treatment, undergoing fertility investigations, or simply looking for additional wellbeing and emotional support. Mel believes that acupuncture is most beneficial when patients allow time for regular, individualised support rather than waiting until immediately before treatment.
