Dr. Lisa is absolutely amazing! I cannot recommend her enough. I came to see her while my husband and I were having trouble TTC. Dr. Lisa is so kind and knowledgeable. I experienced so many positive changes after every session and following her recommendations. No words can fully express my gratitude as my husband and I are now expecting our first baby!

I can not recommend Dr Lisa enough! She is so kind, compassionate & warm. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew I was in the right place. You can tell she cares so much and her sessions are really relaxing and uplifting. She was a big part of my fertility journey and now a part of my pregnancy journey :)

For over 10 years I have been living with an ovarian cyst that has continued to grow each year. Initially I had rare episodes of slight pain which gradually turned into long episodes of excruciating pain. After a trip to the ER in March 2023, it was recommended that I have both ovaries removed. This recommendation was supported with 2nd & 3rd opinions from gynecologists. I began treatment with Dr. Lisa in March 2023. As of mid July, 2023 the cyst is now half the size. Dr Lisa saved me from having my ovaries removed. Incredible!! I am also being successfully treated for my long term digestive problems with herbs and acupuncture. Dr. Lisa's warm, friendly manner and holistic approach is like no other.

Dr Mascall has helped me so much. I suffered from horrible PMS that sometimes caused panic attacks. After seeing Dr Mascall, the symptoms lessened and eventually stopped. She is also helping me with nutrition and healthy digestion. I am so happy to have found her.

Dr. Lisa changed my mindset and helped me soo much. For years she has been telling me to eat red meat because I was always getting hurt as a fitness professional. 6 years later today my hemoglobin levels were so low I felt as if I was having a heart attack. Most recently I called her because I saw I had cankles (my ankles and feet were so swollen they looked like one body part) she asked me a few questions. She diagnosed me and told me what to do. 2 days later cankles gone. Another issue. My doctor has been pressuring me to get my uterus taken out. Dr. Lisa gave me the confidence and information to know that I don’t have to do this. We love 💕 you Dr. Lisa

Dr.Lisa is kind, compassionate, and offers great acupuncture services. I have struggled with miscarriages after giving birth to my first baby. Dr. Lisa was supportive and treated me very well! I'm happy to come back this time around during my third trimester with my rainbow baby and see her for a visit god willing.

Frequently Asked Questions

While individual needs vary, we typically recommend starting acupuncture 3 months prior to starting IVF.  Since herbal medicine is a huge part of this practice, we see patients only a couple times per month for acupuncture.  This gives your body adequate time to make the changes that will make the entire process of IVF easier on your body, both physically and mentally. 

The best answers to this question are individual, but generally our sessions and herbs help return the body to its natural state of health.  Fertility is what happens naturally, in a body that is functioning optimally.

The most common “risk” for acupuncture itself is minor bruising, but even that is uncommon in our practice.  What is far more concerning is the mental and emotional toll of going through IVF without the proper support in place.  Many of my IVF patient have described acupuncture as being their “saving grace” while they were going through the IVF process.

Most patients find acupuncture to be a relaxing experience with minimal discomfort. The needles used are extremely thin, and any sensation is typically brief. Many people report feeling calm and refreshed after treatments, with some even falling asleep during sessions. Acupuncture needles are minuscule compared to the needles used to adminster the meds required to go through the IVF process.  

It’s ideal to begin acupuncture treatments 3-4 months before trying to conceive, whether naturally or through assisted reproductive techniques. This allows time for the acupuncture to regulate your cycle, balance hormones, and improve overall reproductive health. However, it’s never too late to start – we can tailor treatments to your specific timeline and needs.

Yes! I strongly encourage both partners to take charge of their reproductive health during the IVF process.  Acupuncture + herbal medicine can be used to support sperm quality, motility, morphology, and overall reproductive wellness in the male partner.
