Your baby’s health begins 90 days before conception.

The 90-Day Conception Readiness Intensive is a fully personalized, science-rooted, soul-informed program that prepares your whole body (and your partner’s) for conscious conception.

Most fertility support starts when something goes wrong. This starts before anything goes wrong at all.

Why 90 Days

There’s a window most fertility conversations skip.

Science is clear: the egg and sperm that will become your child are actively shaped in the 90 days before conception. Everything from stress levels, gut health, hormone balance, sleep, nutrition, emotional patterns, even what you’re carrying from your lineage is influencing that process right now.

This is the window where real fertility work happens.

Not reactive.

Not panicked.

Intentional.

And yet most people don’t even know it exists until something doesn’t go as planned.

(heck, some folks don’t even know their body’s “normal” hormonal cycles until they are not immediately successful)

The 90-Day Conception Readiness Intensive is built entirely around this window. We don’t wait for a diagnosis. We start from strength, and we build from the root.

This intensive is for you if…

  • You’re planning to conceive in the next 3-12 months and want to arrive fully prepared, not just “trying”

  • You’ve experienced cycle irregularity, stress-related hormonal disruption, gut issues, or unexplained fatigue and know these things matter

  • You want care that integrates Eastern medicine, functional nutrition, and nervous system healing, not just “eat well and relax”

  • You believe the health of both partners matters (because the research on sperm health and pregnancy outcomes is something we take seriously here)

  • You’re ready to invest, in time, in attention, and in yourself, for 90 days

  • You want a practitioner who sees the whole picture, not just your labs

And this is not for you if…

  • You’re looking for a quick fix or a magic protocol

  • You’re not ready to track, implement, or make meaningful changes

  • You want someone to tell you what you want to hear

Why 90 Days? Here’s the science.

Spermatogenesis, the process of creating new sperm, takes approximately 74 days. The final maturation phase takes another 2 weeks. That means the sperm that is present today has been shaped by the previous three months of experiences.

Eggs are on a similar timeline. The 90-day window before ovulation represents the critical maturation period for the egg that will be released. Oxidative stress, nutrient deficiencies, disrupted sleep, unregulated cortisol… all of it registers.

Research has linked sperm health to gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia, and up to 60% of the genetic material passed to a child. This isn’t just a “female fertility” conversation.

This is where Chinese medicine and other traditional medicines have been ahead of the curve for centuries, treating both partners, addressing root patterns, and working with the body’s natural cycles rather than against them.

“We don’t treat a problem. We optimize a system, because the most profound thing you can do for your future child is prepare their first palace.” Dr Mama Shani

What we do together over 90 days.

Comprehensive Intake + Roadmap Session (90 minutes) We begin with a deep dive: full health history, cycle architecture mapping, fertility readiness assessment, and a personalized 90-day protocol. Both partners are welcome, and when both come in, the work is exponentially more powerful.

Weekly 1:1 Sessions (12 sessions over 90 days) Acupuncture when you’re local to San Diego clinic, acupressure guidance virtually. Each session is tailored to where you are in your cycle and where we are in the 90-day process, adjusting protocols as your body responds and evolves.

Custom Botanical Protocol Your herbal formulas are custom-blended using the highest-quality Chinese medicine botanicals available, sourced through Botanical Biohacking, the professional-grade standard I trust for every client. Your protocol is adjusted throughout the program as your body shifts.

Partner Fertility Prep Module A dedicated deep-dive for the sperm-contributing partner, covering the science of the 90-day sperm development window, targeted lifestyle shifts, supplement protocols, and how to show up as a fully prepared co-creator.

Mid-Program Milestone Session (Week 6) A comprehensive check-in to assess what’s shifted, what needs fine-tuning, and to recalibrate your protocol for the second half of the program.

Completion + Next Steps Session A closing session that maps where your body is now, your readiness markers, what’s changed, and the clearest path forward, whether that’s beginning active conception, continuing into pregnancy support, or enrolling in a higher-level care container.

I’m Dr Mama Shani Cooper, DACM, L.Ac, Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese medicine, licensed in California, and a full-spectrum doula.

I’ve spent years at the intersection of ancient Eastern medicine and modern perinatal care, working with people navigating fertility, pregnancy, birth, and the full arc of the reproductive journey. I call this work AcuDoula care… the meeting place of acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and deep birthwork.

I founded Root and Soul Acupuncture because I believe you deserve care that sees all of you… your body, your hormones, your nervous system, your lineage, your vision for your family. Not just your labs.

Frequently Asked Questions

The 90 days before conception are among the most powerful you have.

Most people don’t know this, and so they arrive at pregnancy having left the most important preparation undone.

You don’t have to do it that way.

This is where legacy begins, not at the positive test, not at the birth, but here. In the root work. In the preparation that no one sees but everyone benefits from.
