Bio

One of the first acupuncturists in the US to specialize in Women's Health & Infertility, Danica Thornberry earned her research doctorate measuring the effects of "Mind-Body-Diet Fertility Education in Women Doing IVF". Since 2001, she's helped thousands of fertility patients reach their goals, worked alongside Los Angeles' best fertility specialists, appeared on Lifetime TV's Speaking of Women's Health, and received the Award of Excellence in Family Building from Resolve.org. A mother of two against-the-odds kids, Danica is the author of "Stick It to Me, Baby!" and the founder of SeedFertility.com, an online fertility program that provides women with empowering tools to improve their chance of successful pregnancy.

I'm passionate about

Educating and empowering women who are struggling to build a family.

An idea worth spreading

Infertility offers an opportunity for Personal Transformation -- our willingness to think differently about the fertility journey is what's needed (and often missing) in the treatment of infertility & pregnancy loss.

Areas of expertise

Acupuncture, Counseling, Fertility

The TED story

My own story of fertility success, despite a formidable poor prognosis, leads other women to find courage and inspiration during the toughest time of one disappointment after another. I teach women how to reframe the #fertilityjourney into a meaningful process of empowerment and self-healing, which often leads to a successful pregnancy.
