I cannot recommend Marcy White of Copley Acupuncture highly enough. My husband and I had been trying to have a baby for 2 years before I was diagnosed with infertility. My IVF Dr recommended I use acupuncture in conjunction with my IVF treatment to boost my chances of having a successful IVF cycle. So I decided it made sense to at least meet with someone and understand more about it. A friend recommended Marcy.
The office is really warm and welcoming. Its quiet, super clean (and there's free tea and magazines!)
The first session is really an introduction to acupuncture, what it is, what it can do, going over your medical history and deciding what treatment options you have open to you. Marcy is a really sweet and caring person but more importantly she really is a great acupuncturist and has a wealth of knowledge and experience especially surrounding infertility. She explains everything clearly and just makes you feel really at ease.
Trying to have a baby for such a long time is really a very emotionally draining experience but I really trusted that Marcy was doing everything she could to help me achieve that dream, she's just such a positive person.
So I started going in February of 2009 and I had my first IVF cycle in February 2010. In October 2010 I had my baby boy :) I really don't think I would have had such a positive outcome first time around without Marcy's help.
Marcy adjusted my treatment schedule depending on what was going on with my IVF cycle and she made sure that I saw her for a treatment within an hour or two of my transfer-which is really important. After my treatments I always felt really relaxed and reenergized.
I had sessions during my first trimester also to help the pregnancy make it through those first scary months. Now I'm already returning for treatment to get my body ready for IVF again later this year. If your a woman struggling to get pregnant I encourage you to try Copley Acupuncture.
