Eileen Connor L.Ac., Ma.O.M.
Eileen received the degree of Master of Oriental Medicine from the Minnesota College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine at Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, Minnesota. She is nationally certified in acupuncture and herbal medicine as a NCCAOM Diplomate in Oriental Medicine.
"From an early age I was raised to believe that good health is largely in one's own hands and mind-we are all capable of an incredible amount of self-healing. My family's approach to healthcare was largely preventative, with an emphasis on good nutrition, vitamins, herbs, daily exercise, and an optimistic and spiritual outlook on life.
I would like to see all couples who are struggling with a diagnosis of "infertility" start with Chinese Medicine before they agree to much more costly, painful and stressful treatments. A large part of what we do is to bring your body functions back into a state of balance and harmony to give you the best possible chance to become pregnant, even if you find you need to undergo more modern methods Western medicine has to offer. Recent studies have shown that a truly complementary partnership between Chinese and Western medicine just might bless you with the best possible outcome of all!"

"My initial interest in Chinese medicine began when Western medicine failed to diagnose and treat a health issue I experienced more than ten years ago. I turned to Traditional Chinese Medicine and was astonished by the results. Having a background in chemistry with studies in pre-med, I was prone to having a skeptical attitude towards my treatment. I sought to better understand my recovery and pursued studies in Traditional Chinese Medicine. My specific interests in fertility and men's health issues developed in China. I saw Chinese Medicine practiced on a very large scale, with large numbers of patients effectively treated for a wide variety of conditions, including infertility as well as issues associated with men's and women's health. With the fertility challenges couples are facing today, helping them achieve their dreams of conception naturally is very rewarding for me. Equally as important, people can achieve overall health through Chinese Medicine to prevent or reduce present or future illness."
