Acupuncturist – Specializing in Fertility & Women's Health

Ballard Acupuncture Center | Ballard, Seattle, WA

Are you an experienced acupuncturist with a strong background in fertility who is passionate about working with women?

Ballard Acupuncture Center is looking for an experienced, compassionate acupuncturist to join our established women's health practice. We support women through the many transitions of life—from fertility and IVF to pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause.

We are a woman-owned, cash-based practice that has been serving Seattle since 2009. We see 20–25 new patients each month and have strong referral relationships with PNW Fertility and other healthcare providers. We have been voted Seattle's Best Acupuncture Clinic two years in a row and were the 2025 Bronze Winner for Best Women's Clinic in the PNW.

About the Position

Fertility is a significant part of our practice, and we are looking for an acupuncturist with hands-on experience treating fertility patients after graduation. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in fertility acupuncture and experience supporting women through both natural fertility and assisted reproductive treatments, including IVF.

Additional training or continuing education in fertility and reproductive health is important to us. We are especially interested in practitioners who have continued to develop their fertility expertise through advanced coursework, mentorship, or clinical experience and who are comfortable working alongside patients and their fertility care teams.

While fertility is a major focus, our clinic supports women through many different stages and transitions. We are looking for someone also interested in treating women's health conditions throughout the lifespan, including pregnancy, postpartum, perimenopause, and menopause.

Chinese herbal medicine is an important part of our approach. We are looking for a practitioner who is confident in prescribing individualized Chinese herbal formulas and incorporating herbs into treatment plans when appropriate.

We also offer Point Injection Therapy (PIT). Experience is a plus, but we are happy to train the right candidate.
