Initially started to see Simon for migraine treatment and abdomen pain which was linked to the hormonal cycle.After years of suffering and strong medication, decided to seek an holistic approach to address the underlying causes as opposed to masking the symptoms with nasty prescribed medications. After several visits, for the first time in years, I was migraine free at the time of month which was amazing, since 3 day migraines for years every month has an impact on life.! After treatment for migraines and abdomen pain, I became pregnant naturally at 45 after suffering miscarriages. I have received weekly treatment throughout pregnancy and it has helped calm the nerves, calm digestive system and reduce morning sickness. Always feel more relaxed,reassured and focused after each treatment. Simon has also been so helpful with advice on nutrition and wellbeing and fully trust his advice, and is always very professional yet friendly in his conduct. Highly recommended for any woman who suffers from hormonal cycle related problems, and pregnancy issues. It has helped me enormously and have found treatment invaluable throughout my late in life pregnancy.

I went to see Simon on recommendation, as I was suffering with neck and upper back / shoulder problems. He is very friendly and the place has a very relaxed feel to it, which put me at ease and we had a good chat about my problems and how he would treat it. I felt very comfortable with everything and trusted him totally. I knew it would take around 48 hours to feel a difference and the difference has been great! My movement has improved greatly and my posture is better already and I feel so much better in myself without the aches and pains. I’ve already recommended Simon to friends and work colleagues ,as working on a PC all day does not help . I am now a regular customer and over time, have had other ailments that he’s sorted out for me too. Thanks Simon !

I've been using the services for fertility treatment, but have found it useful in other areas of pain and wellbeing. I would highly recommend Simon for his professionalism and fantastic acupuncture knowledge.

Been going to Simon for a couple of years now with back pain and hip problems. The first time I went improvement was immediate, and improved my condition dramatically. He really puts you at ease and ensures you are comfortable throughout the treatment. Would highly recommend contacting Simon if you have any sort of back, hip or shoulder pain.

Core treatments include acupuncture support for IVF, ICSI and IUI cycles, targeted acupuncture for PCOS, endometriosis, recurrent miscarriage and male sperm quality, as well as dietary, nutritional and lifestyle counselling to optimise hormone balance and endometrial health. The clinic also offers private Western medical testing such as day‑3 and day‑21 hormone panels, AMH ovarian reserve testing, antral follicle scans, endometrial ultrasounds and full sperm analysis through a partnered laboratory.

What is the maximum age for IVF treatment at Birkdale Acupuncture? expand_more
Birkdale Acupuncture primarily focuses on women aged 35 to 45 years, a group identified as having more complex or difficult fertility cases. While the clinic does not impose a strict upper age limit, its treatment protocols are tailored to support patients up to around 45 years old, emphasizing the enhancement of egg quality, endometrial receptivity and male sperm parameters before IVF or ICSI cycles. Simon Rowe advises that older patients may benefit from an extended pre‑conception acupuncture program of at least three menstrual cycles to optimise hormonal balance and improve pregnancy outcomes. The clinic’s age‑specific approach reflects its experience with older women and its commitment to delivering individualized fertility treatment within realistic success‑rate expectations.
