TESTIMONIALS

What Our Moms Say

Real stories from real moms who found support and healing

"I have PCOS and a history of recent miscarriages. I am so happy that I called Tina for help. I got pregnant within the first month of coming for acupuncture! I kept coming to Tina throughout the first trimester and I 100% believe that she helped to sustain my pregnancy and make my symptoms as mild as possible."

Maria C.

Orange County, CA

Verified Patient

"I have quite the history with pregnancy loss and early delivery with my son. Tina was my birth doula and was able to help me remove the blocks and negativity I had associated with my first pregnancy. During labor, my baby was 'sunny side up' which causes extreme back pain. Tina was able to use acupuncture and her healing touch to take that pain away."

J.C., RN

Orange County, CA

Verified Patient

"Tina's touch and acupuncture may have been the deciding factor in me being able to have a birth center delivery rather than a hospital induction. My baby was two weeks overdue and I had tried everything. She put me completely at ease. Most of all I could feel the LOVE that Tina has for her work and for helping women."

FAQ

Pregnancy Acupuncture Questions

Common questions about acupuncture during pregnancy

Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?

Yes. Acupuncture is a safe, non-invasive treatment when performed by a licensed acupuncturist trained in prenatal care. We use pregnancy-safe acupuncture points and sterile, single-use needles. Many OB/GYNs and midwives recommend acupuncture as a complement to prenatal care.

When should I start pregnancy acupuncture?

Tina recommends starting as early as possible. In the first trimester, she focuses on preventing miscarriage, supporting IVF/IUI, and treating nausea. Her protocol is weekly visits until 15 weeks to build a strong foundation for your pregnancy.

Can acupuncture help with morning sickness?

Absolutely. Acupuncture is one of the most effective natural treatments for pregnancy nausea and hyperemesis. Many of our patients experience significant relief within the first few sessions.

How does acupuncture prepare for labor?

Starting at 37 weeks, acupuncture helps soften the cervix and prepare the body for labor. At 40 weeks, we use specific acupuncture points to naturally encourage labor, helping signal the hormones responsible for dilation and contractions — potentially shortening labor time.

Do you treat postpartum symptoms too?

Yes. We support moms through the "fourth trimester" with acupuncture for postpartum depression, boosting lactation, c-section scar healing, fatigue, uterine recovery, and overall postpartum wellness.

What does a typical session look like?

Sessions are 45-60 minutes in a calm, private treatment room. Acupuncture needles are ultra-thin (about the size of a cat whisker) and most patients find the experience deeply relaxing. Many fall asleep during treatment.

Do you accept insurance?

We accept all out-of-network PPO insurance plans with acupuncture coverage. We also accept HSA and FSA payments. Call us for a free insurance benefits verification before your first visit.
