STORIES OF HOPE
“After four years of trying to conceive and experiencing two heartbreaking miscarriages, I turned to fertility acupuncture as a last hope… and it completely changed my journey. With Christina’s compassionate care and expert guidance, my body and spirit found the support they needed. Thanks to acupuncture, I was able to conceive and carry two beautiful, healthy babies, both over 10 pounds! The acupuncture helped me through the first two trimesters where I suffered from terrible morning (all day) sickness, as well as crippling sciatica. Christina was also there at the end of my pregnancies, helping to gently start my induction. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my labor was already underway, and the experience was truly gentle and magical. I’m forever grateful for her role in helping bring my babies into the world.”
“Christina is more than just acupuncture. I came to Christina about 7 months into our fertility journey feeling defeated overwhelmed and unsure what to do next. Being our second child, we never expected to have such difficulty after such an easy time with #1.
After just two appointments I felt we had developed a great plan that encompassed everything that was important to me during this journey. She was very understanding and willing to meet me where I was—lost between the need for IVF and just trusting my body. Christina helped us through the roller coasters every month and was right there with me when it didn’t work out. She also celebrated in our joy when I got pregnant! She truly knew before I did that we were finally successful all on our own—and knew it was a boy before the doctor’s even did! There is no doubt in my mind that Christina helped make our family complete—conceiving our son naturally with her nurturing support. Highly recommend Christina to anyone looking to start a family—struggling or not. Her knowledge and commitment to fertility through acupuncture is unmatched.”
“We had never had difficulty conceiving our first 3 children, so we were confused and heartbroken when we couldn’t seem to get pregnant with our 4th. We saw our doctors, did all the tests, but still had no answers. When I heard of acupuncture for fertility, I thought that I may as well try it because I had nothing to lose. I had no idea all that it would do for me. I met with Christina and we discussed my pregnancy history and my overall health. We discussed a plan to move forward with, and I fell pregnant after the first cycle of trying under her care! I couldn’t believe it-after over a year of trying and seeing those negative tests, I had lost so much hope, yet here I was, finally pregnant! It somehow felt like magic! I continued to see her throughout the pregnancy as part of my prenatal care. She helped to treat the many pregnancy symptoms that I was facing and helped to keep me happy, healthy, and comfortable! Additionally, other aspects of my health improved under her care (digestion, stress management, sleep, etc). Through it all, I truly felt like Christina was invested in my pregnancy and in my health. She is so kind, compassionate, caring, and SMART. I started doing acupuncture a “last ditch effort” to have our baby, only half believing it might help, but now I feel like I owe Christina everything! My boy will be a year old next month and he is such a joy in our lives! I am so grateful.”
“After experiencing two unexplained miscarriages within a year, I wanted to find a natural way to help my body heal and prepare for a healthy pregnancy. Acupuncture seemed like a promising option for me. Christina made me feel so comfortable from the start. We felt like a team trying to achieve the same goal for myself. The sessions were calming, and I could feel my stress levels decrease after each visit. I went once a week for several months, and I always left feeling more balanced and relaxed. After committing to weekly sessions and at home herbs & routines, I started to notice my cycles become more normal and my anxiety decrease. I could tell acupuncture was helping my mind and body become more in tuned with itself. After three months of acupuncture, I am happy to say I became pregnant with my daughter!”
“I cannot say enough good things about acupuncture with Christina! After three unsuccessful IVF cycles, I started doing acupuncture with her on a weekly basis wanting to focus on fertility. Not only was my 4th IVF cycle better, the results were SIGNIFICANTLY better to the point my doctor said, ‘I wasn’t sure I was looking at the same patient. Whatever you’re doing, keep doing it!’ Nothing else had changed except starting acupuncture. That cycle resulted in a positive pregnancy test, and now I am 20 weeks pregnant with twins on the way! I truly believe that acupuncture made a huge difference in my success, and Christina has just been phenomenal and tailors the treatment to be exactly what you need. I am forever grateful!”
