Chrisa

My name is Chrisa. I am 38 years old and had been trying to get pregnant for two years.

My doctor suggested that I try using only Clomid for three months. After that didn't work we tried Clomid and an IUI. That didn't work either, so my nutritionist suggested I give acupuncture a try before my second IUI.  Eighteen days after the IUI my doctor gave me the greatest news!

I was pregnant!  I noticed the effects of the acupuncture and herbs right away and wished that I had tried it earlier.  I continued on with the acupuncture and herbs for the first trimester.  This helped keep my nausea under control.

I am now a strong believer that Chinese Medicine helped me start the family that my husband and I have always dreamed of having.

Michelle

After complications following the birth of my first child I was diagnosed with Asherman's Syndrome - a disease which causes adhesions in the uterine lining. Traditional doctors told me that it would be unlikely that I would have a second child. Naturally, I was extremely grateful to already have one healthy baby but I longed for a second and wanted, at minimum, to have the ability and choice to provide my daughter with a sibiling.

After being diagnosed with Asherman's, I had two surgeries in an attempt to eradicate the scarring which was causing the walls of mu uteros to ostensibly be stuck together, preventing pregnancy. I worked with Kaleb throughout this time over the course of a year. During the routine pre-op blood work ordered by my western doctor on my way to a third surgery, I learned that I would not need to have the surgery after all as I was pregnant!

I firmly believe that the combination of acupuncture, re-establishing a framework of openness, acceptance and calm in my life through meditative exercises, journaling, simple yoga stretches and having fun (yes, he gave me homework to have fun and laugh!!!) fuelled my full recovery. My sessions left me feeling listened to, emotionally bouyed and unburdened and no doubt helped me to get - and stay - pregnant.

On May 8th 2007 I gave birth to a secnd healthy baby girl. I thank Kaleb from the bottom of my heart for helping me and my family fulfill a dream and overcome what others said wasn't possible.

Prior to starting fertility treatments we had tried all types of conventional medical treatments as well as naturopathic remedies and much much more, it's been a challenging several years with no results.

Two months after moving from Australia to Canada for work we tried acupuncture treatments and chinese herbal medicine. We were also introduced to the power of listening, which is very rare and also incredibly helpful for couples that are having trouble conceiving.

To our joy, several months into my treatment we conceived a child who was born on 14th January - this little miracle is very much owed to your dedication, care and expert knowledge in fertility. Thank you just doesn't seem enough of the joy that you've helped us bring (very soon) into our world.

Miguel

It's incredible how much difference one treatment can make. I tend to get impatient with treatments that take a while to produce any results, although I acknowledge that they do make a difference. I was delighted that even after 1 session, I saw a major difference in my condition.

Also, I've had my share of doctors, Eastern and Western, that are ready to tell you, "my way or the highway!". Rarely have I encountered someone who is willing to work with the patient in finding not only the most effective treatment, but one that incorporates the patients fears, states of mind and beliefs. It truly feels more like a partnership than a doctor-client relationship.

Amanda

My husband and I had been trying to conceive for three years. After much frustration we decided to go the IVF route in conjunction with acupuncture treatment. We had tremendous success with this treatment. The IVF went smoothly with no sickness or complications, we were able to transfer more eggs than normal, our egg quality was superb and I am happy to report that I am 4 months pregnant!

I continued with my acupuncture treatments for the first three months of my pregnancy and again I had no sickness or complications. I would highly recommend acupuncture to anyone anticipating child birth, undergoing fertility treatments or for general health. I truly believe it was a big reason for our success.

Susan

I was extremely pleased with the services and treatments I received. When I first visited I was undergoing IVF with a fertility specialist and was looking to strengthen my odds of becoming pregnant, and staying pregnant by utilizing all resources available. As well, I was hyperstimulated and looking to avoid more serious complications. I believe it was the combination of both eastern and western medicine that brought me my beautiful baby girl.

Sue

The treatment was very effective, even though during the course of treatment with Kaleb we discovered that I had PCOS. We put in a lot of work ahead of time and my husband and I conceived on our first attempt at IVF. The TCM brought a good balance to not only my medical treatment but also my personal outlook on the experience and life, in general.
