Success Stories
We have helped many couples who have struggled with fertility issues achieve pregnancy and give birth to healthy babies. Many of them had tried every conventional treatment available to them but still wanted to become pregnant naturally. Some were working with fertility clinics and wanting to increase their chances of having success with IVF. We are happy to support any path that couples may be on to fulfill their dream of becoming parents.
While individual results will vary from one person to the next, and information here is not intended to supersede your physician’s advice, we have had successes in cases that span the spectrum of circumstances. Here are some thoughts from past patients:
Kiné was very honest with me and said given my case and history she did not feel like acupuncture and Chinese medicine alone would result in a pregnancy, but that it would be a good adjunctive therapy to support any further treatments. I appreciated that she did not give me empty promises throughout my treatments with her.
When I first met with Kiné she did a thorough health history. Kiné asked so many questions about my treatments and I could tell she was working harder than my previous Reproductive Endocrinologist to try to find some answers.
I started seeing Kiné in January 2014. I reached out to Willow Tree Wellness with the main goal to restart my body after having been through multiple unsuccessful fertility treatments. I felt like I needed a break from the emotional, physical, and financial stress of infertility.

Here’s How We Help You Achieve Pregnancy Naturally
Extensive Health Exam with an Evaluation of Menstrual and Fertility History
We take a whole systems approach to evaluating your health history - seemingly unrelated symptoms fall into a specific pattern diagnosis that ties them all together as one root cause.
Comprehensive Treatment Plan
We will collaborate with you on a plan of action for self-care and a focused treatment plan that works with your plan to become pregnant. We will work together to resolve your menstrual irregularities and pain as well as improve other symptoms such as stress, anxiety, digestive upset or headaches associated with your cycles. Your treatment plan will include one or more of the following therapies: diet recommendations, targeted nutritional supplements, custom herbal remedies, acupuncture, and relaxation techniques.
Pain Relieving Health Modulating Acupuncture Therapy
Acupuncture is a regulatory therapy with a cumulative effect. Weekly acupuncture sessions are designed to stimulate your body’s own healing mechanisms and regulate hormonal cycles. Consistent treatment offers effective results, similar to going to the gym or when needing to take medication. For those seeking faster results, treatments will be spaced closer together.
Concise, Focused Nutritional Guidance with Custom Nutritional Support
We make sure all of your nutritional needs are met and offer tweaks to your diet that will improve how you feel. We want to support your body’s ability to use nutrients to heal and repair cells and tissues so you feel your best!
Ensuring Long-Term Pain Relief
Once we have achieved consistent pain relief, regular menstrual cycles (and hopefully pregnancy!) along with a renewed sense of health and vitality, we’ll gradually reduce the frequency of treatments. Your body will be able to hold onto the results and we will be here to offer maintenance care on an as-needed basis. Our goal is to get you feeling your most vibrant and so happy with your results you’ll send us all your friends and family!
The Investment
Our treatment program is both affordable and sustainable. Whether you are seeking natural treatment only or in combination with conventional treatment, our goal is to provide you options that will maximize results for the price. A three-month course of treatment, with office visits, acupuncture, supplements, herbal medicines costs less than a single IUI cycle and much less than an IVF cycle. This is especially helpful if you will be combining our care with IVF procedures.
How long will it take?
While no health care provider can make guarantees about how you will respond to therapies, we use the 3-6 month range as our guideline based on the timeline of the growth of an immature follicle to the full maturation of an egg that is ready to be ovulated. Even if a spontaneous pregnancy is not achieved, you will begin the next steps of fertility interventions with a higher chance of success because we have regulated your menstrual cycle, improved your uterine lining and improved the quality of your eggs.
In most cases when pregnancy was achieved it occurred within 3 to 9 months. And for couple’s who to choose to proceed with a fertility clinic, their chances for success are significantly improved because of the work that we have done in our fertility program.

Because my husband and I are trying to get pregnant I thought a specialist in fertility acupuncture would be the way to go - I am so glad I came across Kiné!!
She is so knowledgeable, comforting, took the time to really listen to me and answered all my questions with compassion. I am so glad I found her and will be going back to see her regularly.
Thorough Thoughtful Care
Patient Since June 2016
"Kiné was really wonderful. This was my first visit with her for fertility treatment.
In the consultation, she was so thorough and knowledgeable and gave me her full attention and care.
I felt like she trusted the decisions I was already making, yet gave me advice to guide me forward with more resources.
I left the appointment feeling really well cared for and grateful to have found her. Plus, she's just cool. Highly recommend.
Incredible Care
Patient Since February 2017
"Before finding Kiné I had done extensive research on fertility acupuncture and what to look for when choosing your provider. It was important for me to find someone who had the experience and credentials (FABORM) for specialization in fertility.
Kiné was one of the first that I came across and after reading her reviews I knew I had to meet her. My husband and I had been trying to get pregnant for over 2 years, within 4 weeks of working with her I was pregnant. I highly recommend her"
