What is Low Libido?
Low libido (also called low sex drive) means you’re not as interested in intercourse as you used to be. You might want it less often, or your desire may not feel as strong. This shift can be short-term or ongoing.
Low sex drive is fairly common. Around 1 in 5 men experience it at some point, and it’s even more common among women. While hormones and anatomy play a role, libido changes can happen to anyone. Many people notice that their sex drive naturally goes up and down over time.
What Causes Low Libido?
Low libido can result from a variety of underlying factors, including:
- Restricted blood flow. Health problems like heart disease, diabetes, obesity, or poor artery function can limit blood circulation, which may lower sexual desire.
- Hormonal issues. Both men and women can experience shifts in hormones that affect libido. Low testosterone, estrogen, adrenal, or thyroid issues may all be factors.
- Chronic stress. High stress can interfere with hormone production and even impact blood vessels. For men, this may result in difficulty maintaining an erection, which contributes to drop in sex drive.
What are the Symptoms of Low Libido?
Below are some common signs that may indicate a decrease in sexual desire:
- Reduced interest in sex. You may feel less desire for sexual activity than you once did, or not want it as often.
- No desire for self-pleasure. Even solo sexual activity, like masturbation, might feel unappealing.
- Sex is rarely on your mind. You think about sexual activity far less often than you used to.
- Emotional distress. You may feel confused, concerned, or upset about your lack of desire, especially if it’s affecting your relationships or self-esteem.

Can Acupuncture Help With Low Libido?
Acupuncture for libido offers support for people dealing with low libido by addressing deeper issues in the body. Rather than focusing only on the symptom, acupuncture takes a whole-body approach. It helps by improving blood flow to reproductive organs, supporting hormone regulation, and calming the nervous system.
As a result, circulation increases, hormones stabilize, and stress levels may drop – all these factors play a big role in sexual desire. Some practitioners may also use acupuncture for sex drive in conjunction with herbal support to better meet individual needs. Many people notice a positive shift in their sex drive during treatment, especially when the cause of low libido is related to physical or emotional tension.
Benefits of Acupuncture Treatment for Low Libido
- Better blood circulation. Acupuncture improves blood flow to reproductive organs, which can support arousal and physical response.
- Balance hormones. Acupuncture points for male libido and acupuncture points for female libido can help regulate hormones by stimulating glands that influence testosterone or estrogen production.
- Less stress. Acupuncture can calm the nervous system, helping you relax deeply and reducing the emotional strain that often affects libido.
- More energy and a better mood. By addressing imbalances in the body’s systems, certain acupuncture points for libido boost overall vitality and emotional state, which can help your sexual desire.
- Non-pharmaceutical treatment. Acupuncture is drug-free, making it an appealing option for people who want natural alternatives to medications.
- Holistic support. The treatment considers both physical and emotional causes.
- Custom care. Sessions can be easily customized to your body’s needs, which leads to more personalized and lasting results.
Scientific Evidence: Does Acupuncture Really Work for Low Libido?
A small study published in November 2013 in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine looked at men and women dealing with sexual dysfunction, caused by the use of antidepressants like SSRIs and SNRIs. Between 50 to 90 people who use these medications suffer from sexual dysfunction. Participants received nine acupuncture sessions, each lasting around 15 minutes. Specific acupuncture points for low libido were targeted, many of which are traditionally associated with treating sexual issues.
By the end of the study, women reported a noticeable increase in sexual desire. Men experienced improvements in various aspects of sexual performance, like erection quality, ejaculation timing, and ability to climax. While the study was small, the results suggest acupuncture can be helpful for individuals experiencing low libido due to medication or other imbalances.

Patient Reviews
Amazing experience! Marina is knowledgeable and professional. She has created a very relaxing vibe in her studio that makes the appointment feel like amazing self care. I’m 40 weeks + 3 days pregnant and felt very comfortable with the table set up and also trusted that she knew what she was doing.
Such a soothing environment and Marina is very professional. She explains everything that she is going to do. While I know I need more sessions, I noticed today that I was already able to walk further than before with significantly less pain after the 1st session. What a blessing!!
Marina has been treating me in Clifton for about 6 months for chronic pain. I must say she is extremely knowledgeable and has helped to quiet my deep muscle spasms. As an unexpected bonus, the acupuncture had also helped muscle atrophy from a surgery I had over 12 years ago.Marina is very accommodating, kind, and attentive, and her staff is a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend Pulse.
My experience was phenomenal, I had fire cupping done for the first time, an absolute life changing experience. 🙌
The session was great. I’m dealing with sciatica issues and during one session I was able to receive full body acupuncture, cupping , electro pulse therapy and a stress reading. All very helpful for my pain. Highly recommend.
I love Marina and her team. I have been struggling with feeling nauseous and fatigue after going through an IVF cycle and going twice a week has been working wonders for me. It’s literally the difference between being able to function and not function in life. I can’t recommend Pulse enough!
Exceptional service. Clean and calming rooms. Easy billing/insurance process. Would recommend!
Best Accupuncture in Williamsburg! Marina Laryssa are fantastic. Helped relieve pain for my marathon preparation assisting with Plantar fasciitis ITBs and stress. Great experience, very friendly, would highly recommend visiting them.

Laryssa was fantastic. i can’t ever remember a provider taking the time and attention to my specific issues. highly recommend!
Marina is very professional, caring and extremely knowledgable. The office is peaceful and welcoming. I highly recommend Pulse Acupuncture for holistic care.
Laryssa is very empathetic and clearly cares about her patients. She’s passionate about her job and wants her patients to feel better. I’ve been seen by Marina a couple of times when Laryssa wasn’t there and I can say the same for her. Overall I highly recommend this acupuncture office.
I have been doing acupuncture consistently for 3.5 years, started with Marina almost 3 years ago and also started seeing Larissa this last year.Acupuncture has truly changed my life and has helped me in ways I didn’t even know were possible.I started doing acupuncture to balance my hormones after 2 years of unsuccessful fertility treatments. When I started seeing Marina, my periods were starting to be regular and I was dealing with a few different symptoms which we started treating right away (constipation, random headaches, body aches)… in the last 3 years I have not been sick (no flu, have never tested positive for COVID) - Marina even treated me for allergies more than a year ago during an allergy episode in changing seasons.Also want to mention Larissa as I started seeing her in Marina’s beautiful office and she’s also contributed to my wellness journey. Acupuncture is my favorite wellness practice, I see them regularly and have never felt better. I sometimes just tell them whatever I’m thinking/feeling knowing they will stick some needles in different places of my body and I come out floating and feeling so relaxed.
Marina is the most qualified acupuncture specialist I've ever worked with. I recommend her highly.
My symptoms have improved dramatically after just 3 sessions! She’s talented and kind, and uses various techniques that really make me feel like she’s taking a holistic approach to my health and emotional wellbeing. Cannot recommend her enough!

I've had several sessions with Marina and have had a great experience. I feel relaxed every time a session is over. I recommend trying Pulse out!
I visited Marina for back pain and digestive issues. My whole experience was positive. She is patient, empathetic, and very talented and knowledgeable. She used multiple modalities on my body (front and back) to address my concerns and treat the whole body rather than one part. I have been returning each week and I feel so good after.
Dr Marina is very best to find cure for your aches and pains. She tailors treatment with modalities that fit individual's ailments. You will get relief.
My partner and I have been seeing Marina for the past year now, and it's been a game changer for my health (anything from back pain to allergies). Since starting treatment all these conditions have become so much more manageable.Marina is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also very calming and has great bedside manners.

Highly recommend! I have been to quite a few acupuncturists over the years and Pulse is by far my favorite and the most attentive.

Super pleased with my first appointment. Marina is very kind, knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend.
When I first came to Marina, I felt constant pressure in my lower back, tension in my upper back and lack of energy. During the first session I could literally feel something shifting inside in those areas she was working on. Her touch was so gentle that I didn’t even feel the needles go in. The time stopped, I was relaxed, calm and peaceful. Besides acupuncture I had some cupping done as well. The cups relieved a great deal of pressure from my upper and lower back. After the session I immediately felt the effect. Have my next session scheduled for next week. I would definitely recommend Marina to those seeking holistic ways to deal with muscle, spine, and pain issues. She is a miracle worker!

Acupuncture for Low Libido - FAQ
What is Acupuncture for Low Libido, and How Does It Work?
Acupuncture for low libido involves the gentle insertion of fine, sterile needles at specific points on the body to help balance hormones, improve blood flow, and reduce stress. By targeting key meridians related to reproductive health—such as the Conception Vessel (Ren Mai) and Spleen and Kidney channels—acupuncture can support the body’s natural ability to regulate sexual function and desire.
Who is a Good Candidate for Acupuncture Treatment for Low Libido?
Acupuncture may benefit adults experiencing decreased sexual desire due to stress, hormonal imbalances, fatigue, or relationship issues. It’s especially helpful for individuals who prefer non-pharmaceutical approaches or who are seeking complementary care alongside counseling or medical treatments. A licensed acupuncturist will assess your health history, current symptoms, and lifestyle to determine suitability.
Are Acupuncture Treatments for Low Libido Safe?
Yes. When performed by a licensed and properly trained acupuncturist using single-use, disposable needles, acupuncture is very safe and well-tolerated. Side effects are rare and usually mild—such as slight bruising or transient soreness at the needle sites.
Can Acupuncture Help If My Low Libido is Caused by Stress or Anxiety?
Absolutely. One of acupuncture’s key benefits is its calming effect on the nervous system. By stimulating points that regulate cortisol and other stress hormones, treatments can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep quality, and create a more receptive state for sexual desire.
