Acupressure? Anxiety for upcoming cycle

Anyone tried this to help with anxiety? I'm hopefully starting a third cycle of icsi soon, both times we only got 1-2 embryos to transfer none to freeze and I'm getting anxious before we've even started. I know what to expect but it's just seeing others with kids and feeling I'll be left further and further behind if this fails too.

There's a few other things in my causing stress too but unfortunately none of those are going away any time soon and I can't remove myself from the situation so just want to try and get myself into the best mental state I can!

*I thought of acupuncture but it might be difficult for me to go to regular sessions and you can do some acupressure on yourself is my understanding

Hi, I don't know anything about acupressure. Have tired acupuncture and it wasn't for me. Highly recommend reflexology though, it's the only thing that's helped my anxiety. Could be worth looking into getting someone to come to you for either treatments if possible?

Thank you! There seem to be so many complimentary therapies out there! I will look into this xx
