Pregnancy Loss

“I came to see Angela for acupuncture but ended up receiving much more. Her attention to the mind and spirit as well as the body helped me address all the areas in my life that needed healing and nourishment so that my body could begin to function properly again. After 6 months with Angela, I found that I was able to fall pregnant on the first attempt with minimal medical intervention. She focused on me and my entire well-being rather than merely my desire to have a child.”

Pregnancy Loss

“I was drawn to Angela’s practice not only because of her indisputable expertise and success rate in acupuncture, but also because of her mastery of mind-body connection and spiritual growth. Although I went to Angela to treat miscarriages, I wanted to be whole again as a person more than I wanted to have another healthy pregnancy. In the process of helping me birth another baby, Angela has also helped me re-birth myself. For both, I’m forever grateful.”

PCOS

“When I first went to Angela, I was very frustrated with our fertility problems and scared about embarking on IVF – not in a great place emotionally. Our frozen cycle was successful, and I am expecting my second baby in 6 weeks. Angela was incredible throughout both of my pregnancies, especially in the first trimesters when I had constant questions.”

PCOS

“Completely unsure what to do next, a friend recommended a visit to Angela Le. I knew the first time I met her that I had found the right path. My second month under Angela’s guidance, I menstruated on my own for the first time in 16 months (and after 10 years on birth control). During month 4, I discovered I was pregnant. It was unbelievable news. My body truly needed to be ready on its own time.”

PCOS

“Angela taught me how every life experience adds to personal fulfillment. Welcoming the good, the bad, the happy and the sad moments has created balance in my life. She has taught me the importance of understanding and respecting my body. This knowledge has given all my personal and professional relationships a foundation to grow stronger. Life has become more effortless as I become more knowledgeable and confident in myself.”

PCOS

“After a year with Angela I was in a much different place and decided to take a break from fertility treatments to see how my body would behave with a more balanced lifestyle and acupuncture alone. Within a month I began ovulating on my own, and the second month I conceived spontaneously and am now 30 weeks into a healthy pregnancy! I continue my weekly appointments with Angela.”

PCOS

“When I first came to Angela’s office, I was a complete mess. I had been trying to get pregnant for a year and had gone through several Clomid and IUI cycles, all of which were unsuccessful. Over the next 6 months, Me & Angela addressed my relationship with myself, which proved to be the most crucial piece of my fertility struggle and essentially all the struggles in my life.”

PCOS

“Soon after working with Angela a transformation began to take place inside me. I started to recognize things about myself that I had never acknowledged before: my obsession with control and perfectionism, my relationships with family, friends (and food!) and the impact those things had on my physical body.”

Natural Conception

“I originally came to Angela because I was not ready to try advanced reproductive technology. Physically, the acupuncture, and herbs balanced my system and put my body in an optimal place for conception. However, what I believe to be the most valuable part of my work with her is the emotional stability she helped me attain. I worked with Angela for several months, and I can still remember the day, and the freedom I felt when I realized with certainty that I would be okay if I did not get pregnant.”

Natural Conception

“Angela allowed me to open myself up to the journey. She provided me with meditation tools and emotional support throughout the process. These intangible elements were at least as important as the acupuncture treatments themselves. During my next cycle, I became pregnant. I continued the acupuncture throughout my pregnancy. Angela counseled me on my birthing options and helped to prepare me for birth and motherhood. I have been blessed with a beautiful baby girl.”

Natural Conception

“Angela was the first person to listen to me with empathy, respect, objectivity, and who had an immense knowledge and desire to help. Angela confirmed an idea that I had in mind—that becoming pregnant should be part of a process that involved my whole being, physically, mentally, and emotionally, and that if I could be good to myself by giving myself the time and conditions to heal and become stronger, I would be better prepared for whatever was to come. Despite an 8 ½ year journey with 3 failed IVF attempts, after only four months of working with Angela I was able to get pregnant naturally.”

Preconception

“In a city like New York, with its masculine nature and concrete harsh pavements, exploring our femininity is not easily done. There are few experiences that help connect mind and body. Acupuncture is one such rarely found experience. Acupuncture has taught me to be curious about my body. I've learned that fertility is both fragile and veracious.”
