This gives us the opportunity to do a thorough intake of your health history and allow ample time to discuss questions and concerns. (For Acute pain, Labor Encouragement, Breech Presentation you may contact the office to book an in person appointment for initial intake and treatment on the same day).
New patients will experience 45-60 minutes of in-depth discussion about health history, wellness goals, emotional and physical status, followed by a comprehensive & individualized treatment plan that includes recommendations for nutrition, supplements, herbal medicine, exercise, easy self-care and mind-body tools, and lifestyle enhancements, all in a virtual space.

Acupuncture for Fertility, Hormones, Pregnancy
Your visit will include a brief intake interview that will include Traditional Chinese medicine diagnostic techniques and a relaxing acupuncture treatment.
Nest acupuncturists specialize in fertility, pregnancy and hormones. We pride ourselves on providing care that reflects both the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese medicine, as well as knowledge of the most current western medical practices and interventions, to create integrative treatment plans that will best support the individual patient, wherever they are on their health journey.
Acupuncture for General Wellness, Pain, Non-fertility
At Nest, our focus is on women’s health, fertility and pregnancy. We help you overcome fertility obstacles, gynecological issues, emotional stress and other conditions that may be affecting your life and overall wellbeing. In addition, we are here to support you throughout preconception, pregnancy, and well into the fourth trimester. We encourage open, thorough communication in a warm and inviting treatment environment, and give you the time and attention needed to express your concerns. Our approach is to combine the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with a detailed understanding of western medicine to provide a comprehensive approach to your care. Our intention is to support your overall wellness whether it’s in an effort to manifest an outcome, to heal, or both at the same time. We believe that your body, mind and spirit working together is your greatest strength. You have everything you need. We just give you a boost of support to make things work the way nature intended.
Although acupuncture is our main protocol, we feel that other aspects of TCM are just as important. Some adjunct therapies you might experience during your treatment at Nest include herbal medicine, supplements, nutritional support, lifestyle modifications, as well as other TCM modalities (such as moxibustion, cupping, massage, and Qi Gong).

Acupuncture for Breech Baby
This time-tested treatment is a combination of acupuncture + moxibustion to help turn a breech baby by relaxing your body and, well, we aren't exactly sure why this works. Though we do know that this treatment has been used empirically to turn breech babies for thousands of years with great success. We have found that, at the very least, these treatments can make a manual version performed by your OB much more comfortable.
*Includes smokeless moxa sticks.
Celluma LED Light Therapy at Nest
At Nest we incorporate FDA approved Celluma LED Light Therapy devices and acupuncture to treat a variety of issues ranging from orthopedic pain to skin issues.
LED Light Therapy // In the same way that plants use chlorophyll to convert sunlight into energy, high intensity light emitting diodes (LEDs) utilizing specific, proven wavelengths of light can trigger a natural bio-stimulatory effect in human tissue. Research has shown that light emitting diode (LED) or phototherapy can increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, kill acne bacteria, decrease inflammation, improve acne prone skin, skin tone, texture and clarity, decrease under eye wrinkles as well as ease muscle and joint pain, stiffness, spasm, and pain associated with arthritis.
**This non-invasive therapy may not be for everyone, so please schedule a free 15-minute consultation for more information to see if Celluma LED Light Therapy is right for you.
