Acupuncture Northwest

My husband and I couldn't be happier with our Acupuncture Northwest experience. We both sought acupuncture treatment for fertility after a miscarriage and two failed IUIs. The staff is amazing. We worked with acupuncturist Stephanie Gianarelli. Stephanie really listened to us, addressed our needs, and was eternally positive (even when we had all but lost hope). She worked to complement the treatment we were receiving through the fertility clinic and was extremely knowledgeable about everything we were going through. We also worked with counselor Diana Soto who helped me with relaxation and visualization through our IUIs, and trained my us in hypnobirthing. The other acupuncturists we worked with on occasion were just as wonderful.
The proof is in the results. Stephanie told us to give her 3 months to get me ovulating in a more regular pattern and to improve my husband's sperm motility and mobility. After 3 months of treatments, we got pregnant! She didn't just slightly improve the situation, I was ovulating without the aid of medication and my husband's count of quality sperm more than doubled. I continued acupuncture during the end of my pregnancy, which greatly eased my hip pain and carpal tunnel syndrome. In addition, the hypnobirthing techniques we learned from Diana really helped me breath my baby down during labor, stopped my uncontrollable trembling, and drastically shorted the time for my delivery.
Our baby boy was born 5 weeks ago and is very healthy. I truly don't think this would have happened without their help.
