Success Stories

After doing some research, I found that acupuncture could help regulate an irregular menstrual cycle and also help with fertility. I came to Jim Vitale with the hope of normalizing my extremely irregular cycle
and then to get pregnant. After 7 weeks of treatments, I realized I was pregnant!! So after 6 months of TTC, I was pregnant after only a month and a half of Acupuncture treatments.

Thanks Jim!!"

Dear Jim,

 How can I say just “Thank you,” when the gift you’ve given me is so amazing?

 Before I met you and learned about how acupuncture can help with infertility, my outlook was grim, to say the least. My journey with secondary infertility had been an unexpected and seemingly insurmountable challenge to my vision of “family.” After four long years of trying unsuccessfully to have another baby, after five consecutive losses and three ectopic pregnancies, after years of treatment by a well-regarded reproductive endocrinologist and one miserably failed IVF procedure, we still had no clear explanation as to why we weren’t able to conceive and carry a baby to term. I felt depressed, hopeless, angry…read more

 

and yet, I wasn’t quite ready to give up. Research led me to explore alternatives to western medicine, which obviously wasn’t coming up with any clear answers or solutions. When I learned about the rationale behind acupuncture, it just made sense to me. It was then only a matter of a quick internet search, which led me to you.

 

 As soon as I met you, I knew you were the one I wanted to work with. Your easy-going style and warmth, your willingness to listen, and your flexibility in working with me as I went through a second IVF process were all exactly what I needed. You’ve also created such a relaxing environment in your office that I looked forward to my hour each week (who knew that getting pricked with needles could actually be a highlight of one’s day!)

 

 The most amazing thing is that I saw results immediately! Whereas my estrogen levels struggled to climb during my first IVF procedure, this time they climbed high, and quickly. Whereas egg retrieval resulted in a disappointing number of mature eggs the first go round, this time the number exceeded our expectations. And whereas the first round only left me with two so-so eggs for implantation, this time I was still able to transfer two and have still other top quality embryos placed on ice.

 

 When I asked my doctor the second time around to transfer three embryos, he vehemently refused. Now I know why. The quality of the eggs he transferred was so high that both took!! I’m now five months pregnant with thriving twins (two more boys)!! Jim, I have no doubt that this couldn’t have happened without your care and acupuncture treatment.

 So, thank you, even though I know those two simple words truly fall short in expressing my gratitude!

Sincerely,

Susan E.
