It has been almost three months since I started seeing Lorne after trying for almost a year to conceive. I seemed healthy and yet I felt helpless and perplexed about my fertility. I’m a decent age (32), maintain a healthy weight, eat nutritiously and enjoy wine occasionally, exercise and sleep generously, and have a wonderful husband of seven years -- all I could think was "why am I not pregnant like so many women I know right now?" Since...

Induce labour naturally with acupuncture
Hi, Raeghan!
Well, whatever you did to help induce me - worked!! On Friday, it seemed like early labour was setting in, cramping was getting well underway by 10am. I went to hospital about 5:30pm or so and Brielle was born at 8:11pm. I am just so happy she is on the outside now! I will definitely be coming back to see you again for future babies as it seemed to work like a charm!
Thanks again for everything!

Pre-birth acupuncture and cervical ripening for a natural and speedy delivery
I went to see Dr. Lorne Brown for cervical-ripening treatments when I was in my 36th week as I wanted to increase my chances for a speedy delivery. I was very impressed with Dr. Brown's professionalism and depth of knowledge regarding issues I was having during my pregnancy.
Healthy Natural Pregnancy After Treatment for both my Body and Soul
My story is not unlike many who have approached Acubalance for support in their attempts to become a mother. After two years of trying to get pregnant with a diagnosis of PCOS in tow, I followed the recommendation of a friend to check out Acubalance. I was blessed to have my first appointment with Dr. Ryan Funk and thus began our journey together. What I didn’t realize before I met Ryan was that I was “malnourished,” so to speak.
Surprised to have trouble falling pregnant again – even at a mature age.
I was 40 years with a high risk of preeclampsia when I first met Dr Ryan Funk. But my story begins at age 38, when we decided to have our first child. I conceived in the first month of trying so I was surprised to have trouble falling pregnant again – even at a “mature” age. After five months of trying, I went online to do some research and I was mortified to learn about the massive decline of fertility after age 35. Perhaps I was in denial...
Diabetes and PCOS - Off Insulin and Increased Fertility
Where do I begin? Well let's start by how I got here to Acubalance. I was 39 turning 40 with the continued dream of having a family. My husband and I have had several speed bumps in our journey (6 yrs) which includes failed IFM (in follicle maturation - IFM), and several rounds of IVF, all which have left us disappointed, frustrated, and with my biological clock still ticking.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine for recurrent pregnancy loss goes chances miscarriages to pregnancies
After two failed pregnancies resulting in miscarriages and no answers as to why, I could not help but to feel discouraged and alone. I blamed myself for what happened and would cry myself to sleep thinking that my dream of motherhood would never be fulfilled. I remember walking into Ryan's office feeling depressed and thinking: is this really going to work? But at that...
PCOS overcome with acupuncture diet and IVF
I came to see Dr. Ryan Funk to complement the IVF cycle I was doing through Genesis Fertility Clinic. I was 30 years old and had a diagnosis of poly-cystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) since my early twenties. My PCOS caused me to be anovulatory, have irregular periods, and be overweight.
