I know how WILDLY CAPABLE you are, but you don't have to do it alone.
A Unique, Holistic and Comprehensive Way of Understanding Your Fertility
You’ve collected years worth of tests, scans, cycle charts, IVF reports and medical notes. You’ve spoken to specialists, GPs, naturopaths, dietitians, online support pages – and yet you’re still left with questions. You know something isn’t right but no one seems to be able to put all the pieces together for you.
That’s exactly what this new service is designed to do….
My passion is fertility support. I want to do the research for you. I want to use my 11 years of practice, many years of study, my access to a global network of fertility practitioners and my innate born curiosity to understand you and your story. I want to include you. I want to find the answers with you so you can focus on your own passions.
What you’ll walk away with:
- a clear, unbiased overview and analysis of your fertility health from a Biomedical, Functional Medicine and Chinese Medicine understanding
- identification of missing or overlooked investigations
- access to international testing with unbiased and independent laboratories for missed tests
- recommendations for next steps – tailored specifically to you
- a clear acupuncture treatment plan
- a printed report to take to all healthcare providers so you can be a major contributor to the decision making of your fertility care
- balanced resources to support your fertility education
- referrals to like minded practitioners, experts in their fields in fertility care and vetted by me
- knowledge, confidence and support in asking the right questions and making the right decisions for your body and your family

11 key steps to conception
To Be Pregnant, You Need These Key Steps
If you are facing challenges with conceiving a pregnancy, it will be due to an issue with one or more of these key steps…
- a reserve of good quality eggs
- an egg to be ovulated each month
- the fallopian tubes open, clear of blockages and not infected and the cervix to be unobstructed
- the embryo to move down the fallopian tube to the uterus
- a high sperm count that is good quality
- the egg and sperm to successfully bind together
- the embryo to develop and be genetically normal
- the uterus to be able to accept the developing embryo
- blood flow and microcirculation to be without obstruction
- hormone levels sufficiantly high to support the pregnancy
- the immune system to be appropriately modulated
Your assessment and report will detail what we know for each of these key steps from a Biomedicine, Functional Medicine and Chinese Medicine point of view. It will point out what we’re missing in understanding your challenges with falling pregnant and provide us with a clear roadmap of what to do next.

Feeling Frustrated by Your Current Fertility Care?
Some of things I’m seeing in the clinic that are making your fertility experience more challenging is…
- Feeling like just a number
- Being told ‘it’s just a number’s game
- Short medical consults with limited time for questions
- Lack of collaboration with other fertility support therapies and treatments
- ‘Evidence based’ practice being used as an excuse for lack of tailored treatment options
- Fear and poor education around low AMH results and what they really mean
- Frustration when test results aren’t being used to guide treatment changes
- Women over 40 treated the same as younger women
- IVF recommended before exploring underlying causes
- Lack of investigation of uterine environment, immune system dysfunction, blood flow
- Pushing to be heard, advocating for yourself to have appropriate and well researched investigations
- Recommendation of more IVF cycles, without investigation in between
- Lack of investigation and treatment for men and sperm testing
- Lack of clear explanation of all procedures and their risks and medication side effects
- Lack of nutritional testing and specific supplement support based on results
- Poor understanding of folic acid/folate supplementation
- Toxic positivity and not realistic expectations for health, age, and experience
- Emotional neglect – no mental health support, no contact after a failed cycle or or pregnancy loss
work with me
Paige Waters Fertility Acupuncturist
I have 10 years medical care experience, I have a Bachelor degree in Exercise Science, a Master’s Degree in Applied Science (Acupuncture) and an Advanced Level Diploma in Fertility Acupuncture.
I have 11 years experience working with fertility, IVF and pregnancy support and I have equally been frustrated with the same fertility care as you and really want to be a part of the change.
I am innately curious and like to solve problems. I can see how capable you are. But I can also see how tired you are, doing it all on your own. I want to support your intuition, your research, answer your valid questions and provide a balanced, non emotional view in understanding your challenges and how to navigate them together.
I have fought for access to testing through unbiased and independent laboratories so we can learn as much as we have available without restrictions through medicare.
I have a global network of supportive practitioners who also think outside the box, aren’t limited by the current model of fertility care and can support me in supporting you.
This combination is unique, it’s holistic, it’s comprehensive and supportive. It’s carefully designed with your health in mind.
I can’t wait to work with you. I can’t wait to give you fresh, experienced eyes over your entire fertility experience and offer quality, goal driven treatments, clear information and support through your fertility experience until you meet your baby.
I would love to be a part of your Fertility Story.
So what to do from here….
Let's Get Started
- Head to the link below, make an appointment for The Comprehensive Fertility Assessment and Report
- You will be sent a link with a checklist of all the information I need for your first appointment – I want everything! Every blood test, every scan, every health summary, every supplement you’ve been on and why, every medical experience, surgery etc
- Send me all of this information 7 days prior to your appointment so I can go through it and be prepared when I see you
- Attend your appointment – with your partner if you have one. It is really important they attend this first appointment
- We spend up to two hours doing a top to toe health assessment to complete your Chinese Medicine Diagnosis
- Within 7 days, I will collate all the information, write an easy to read but comprehensive summary and then we will plan your acupuncture treatment plan, refer for further testing if needed, and refer to other health practitioners where needed
The cost is of this appointment is $780. This cost includes the time it takes to collate all of your health history prior to your appointment, the two hour appointment, the time to analyse and write your comprehensive report and a 30 min follow up appointment to go through questions from the treatment plan and report.
During your treatment plan, we will retest bloods, use temperature tracking and symptom changes to understand what is working and what isn’t working for you. We will regularly refer back to the report to make sure we’re on track for your health and fertility goals.
If you have any questions, please get in touch via email hello@paigewatersacupuncture.com.au
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Kindest,
