Happy Clients

"Charlotte provided a is an amazing fertility acupuncturist and guided me through the fertility maze. She went through my blood test results and was knowledgeable about my raised NK cells and cytokines, the names of all my IVF medications, and documented side effects.  Each week, Charlotte personalised my acupuncture treatment and explained how acupuncture can improve my chances of pregnancy.

This cycle was a huge success, I produced more eggs than in previous cycles, and had four top grade embryos. Three were frozen at day 5 and I am now 14 weeks pregnant. Charlotte is amazing, a wealth of knowledge and really supportive. I recommend her Blackheath clinic to anyone struggling to conceive. "

Becky

London

"After two years of trying for a baby and a diagnosis of unexplained infertility, I had a course of acupuncture with Charlotte and became pregnant within three months. I can't explain it but during the acupuncture, I felt so much calmer, more energetic, and positive.

Charlotte is so experienced, and I felt in safe hands. She initially focused on my menstrual cycle and ovulation and it worked. My periods became less painful and more regular.  I am so happy I conceived naturally and wish I had tried acupuncture sooner. "

Emma Clarke

"I was going through egg harvesting and had read about the benefits of fertility acupuncture.  My sister had seem Charlotte for PCOS, and recommended I see her too.

I have had three cycles now and have frozen my eggs. I am not ready yet to fertilise any eggs but will definitely use Charlotte's acupuncture services again. I had felt anxious about the process but Charlotte is  calm and has such a soothing manner and always put me at ease. Thank you for everything. "
