There are many medical treatments that can be used to help a couple become pregnant. Some people also have described success-using acupressure with medical treatments.  Before beginning acupressure treatment a couple should have careful physical examinations to rule out anatomical causes of childlessness.  These should be corrected first if possible. Unless both partners have the anatomical requirements for reproduction acupressure cannot be helpful. Acupressure is an ancient Chinese healing art that calls for stimulating definite pressure points on the body to promote healing.  Acupressure may be able to help the bodies relax, help the blood circulate more freely and quicken the healing process.
How it works?   
It is thought that pressure applied to specific points on the hands and feet can help motivate the ovaries, uterus and adrenal, pituitary, thyroid and parathyroid glands to balance hormone production.  According to five-element theory infertility is influenced by the water element that is inside the bladder and kidney areas and the earth element. Organ and number often identify acupressure spots.  As the tip of the middle finger may have a specific pressure point that is thought to assist the spleen.  That point may be called spleen 3. An acupressure chart can help to find the specific acupressure points that may be used to help during the preconception period include spleen 3, large Intestine 11, triple warmer 7, conception vessel 3. The Liver 3 point is also helpful as it relaxes the nervous system. Spleen 6 and stomach 36 improve circulation. There are many acupressure assets available.  As it is possible to visit an acupressure massage therapist, much acupressure can be done at home too.  Acustimulation is a variation on acupressure and uses an electrical spur instead of pressure and there are products for both acupressure and acustimulation. It will activate these points through the use of wristbands or similar devices 
Ways to boost fertility:
Acupressure helps to reduce stress hormones that interfere with ovulation. It normalizes hormones that regulate ovulation so an egg is released. It helps to increase blood flow to the uterus, improving the chances of a fertilized egg implanting. Improve ovulation cycles in women, which makes getting pregnant difficult and improves pregnancy rates in women undergoing in vitro fertilization
