Services in San Carlos & San Francisco
Fertility Acupuncture
Fertility acupuncture offers gentle, holistic support for individuals and couples trying to conceive, whether naturally or with assisted reproductive treatments such as IVF or IUI. Treatments are designed to support hormonal balance, menstrual cycle regulation, circulation to the reproductive organs, and nervous system regulation. Care is personalized to your unique history and goals, providing a calm, nurturing space to feel supported throughout every phase of your fertility journey.
Holistic Facial Acupuncture
Our skin is a reflection of internal imbalances in the body. Therefore, in treating the face, these treatments encompass healing the whole person. Sessions begin with a full body acupuncture session to rebalance the body and detox, followed by facial massage and gentle facial needling. Facial acupuncture can boost collagen, reduce fine lines, promote lymphatic drainage, clear acne and congestion, release jaw tension, contour face, and improve skin tone.
Prenatal and Postpartum Acupuncture
Fountyn Acupuncture in San Carlos provides targeted prenatal and postpartum acupuncture to support physiological and hormonal balance throughout pregnancy and after delivery. Prenatal treatments can help alleviate back pain, nausea, fatigue, and swelling, while promoting relaxation and optimal circulation. Postpartum sessions focus on recovery, supporting lactation, restoring energy, and addressing hormonal shifts. Each treatment plan is individualized based on trimester, postpartum stage, and patient-specific health goals to maximize safety and efficacy.
Hello from Dr. Rachele Lam, DACM, L.Ac.
I am a licensed acupuncturist and herbalist in San Francisco Bay Area, and founder of Fountyn Acupuncture. My healing practice is nurturing and empowering, and encompasses women’s health, skin, sleep, digestive issues, stress, fertility, and perinatal care. I help people connect more deeply to their bodies and feel empowered in their health.
You’ve given all of your energy to everything you do. Outwardly, you're successful, but inside, you are exhausted, frustrated, and perhaps feeling unseen. Your own health often takes a backseat to your work and time spent caring for those around you. In recent years, you may have noticed issues with your skin, sleep, menses, digestion, or elsewhere that have impacted your quality of life. I am here to help you take control of your health, rebalance your body, and thrive.
