Tuesday, March 17, 2009March Madness
Well, the weather here in Spokane leaves a lot to be desired. On day its snowing.. then windy.. then rainy. It has been really quite awful. In this tumultuous climate headaches have become a prominant issue with chronic aches and pains flaring up. Acupuncture is very effective at relieving these ailments for many clients. On the fertility front, March is off to a good start with three women carrying babies after frequent miscarriages. Acupuncture is really good at helping women carry to term. Both herbs and acupuncture can assist in pregnancies that have been difficult or just impossible to hang on to. I think it is a worthwhile alternative for women who are afraid to conceive because of frequent loss. Here at Point of Origin a baby is the goal that I work very hard to obtain. I am now working with some really difficult cases with poor ovarian reserve, endometriosis, and PCOS just to name a few. Every month I see some of these women concieve. It is phenomenal to to see miracles happen. Looking forward to working with you. Coleen

Well its February and time is rushing by. I have been busy helping women through there in-vitro regiments with great success. February has brought us 3 more pregnancies through natural means. It is very exciting so see more studies published that have proved the benefits of acupuncture with in-vitro. A large study was just included in the last reproductive endocrinology textbook to further Chinese medicine as inclusive treatment with ART. Acupuncture is shown to be helpful at increasing the number of births especially in the "tough cases" like advanced maternal age, high FSH levels. Exciting news for many couples trying to conceive. It is very beneficial at reducing stress also during the entire process. Well that is just fabulous news!!On another front we have been busy with all the residual pain of shovelling snow, people hurt there backs, elbows and necks through our heavy snow season. Acupuncture is amazing at resolving aches and pain. Come and see us soon don't put it off any longer you will feel better faster!!! Talk to you soon Coleen

Sunday, October 12, 2008Thankful Fall Greetings
Fall has brought us more pregnancies and a whole lot of deliveries. I hope to update my site with some baby pictures soon and some new testimonials. It has been a very fruitful fall. Acupuncture and herbs can help women undergoing any ART or IVF treatments. It is so exciting to see couples experience new life when they thought it just wasn't going to happen. Unexplained infertility is a frustrating diagnosis and sometimes a new alternative like acupuncture and herbs can turn your life completely around. Try it today. Acupuncture is not scary, or painful, it is relaxing and enriching and it can be life changing. What are you waiting for give us a call.

Firstly I apologize for not being a better blogger. I need a ghost blogger because as I try to write it comes out all silly or gung ho over the top but with that being said please read on and bear with me. This year has been a blur of activity. I have been studying to become a Fellow of The American Board of Reproductive Medicine and that became a reality in March. After allot of hard work I traveled to Austin and passed the exam. I am now Board Certified!!!
My practice is getting busier with more fertility challenged couples and results have been great. More babies, are coming and hormones are balancing. IVF patients are slowly but surely hearing more about acupuncture and how it helps with their success rates and their treatments. It has been wildly successful. I have had patients with a history of frequent miscarriages have conceived and carried to term. At Point of Origin I make your treatment fit your needs, I will use a formula that is created just for you or none at all if you are undergoing allot of drug therapies during IVF cycles. Considering the outcomes that you desire and the journey you are on, acupuncture is a fantastic therapy to add to your life.

Wednesday, January 23, 2008New Year Joys
January has been a fantastic month with many successful pregnancies. 10 babies will be expected this fall and that is very exciting. I have been so busy learning and working that I have just forgot to blog. We are at our new location and I have Yoga daily, massage therapy, and I am currently looking to add Qigong as well. January has brought a new crowd of people with a myriad of problems like back pain, PMS, neck pain as well as insomnia and dizziness. As usual I have seen miracles happen over and over. I have received many phone calls this month from patients to cancel appointments and thank me for the amazing relief from pain. It is always rewarding to see pain go away. I love acupuncture. If you have not decided to try it come on in or call the office and talk about it because hope is just around the corner. Infertility treatments are expensive and extreme so why not add acupuncture to lighten your anxiety and increase your success. Thanks Look forward to seeing you at the office. Coleen

Wednesday, September 19, 2007Fall News
I have had an incredible September.
KREM2 News came to the office and will include Point of Origin on a Women’s Health special airing Sept 24th. I hope it goes ok but I was disappointed that I could not speak more about acupuncture regulating ovulation, increasing uterine lining and overall improving the success rate of all reproductive technology. Anyways, Last month we have had 4 pregnancies. Yahoo!!
If you are considering acupuncture, remember you do not have to believe in it, it is not for the highly suggestible, it really works even if you don't expect it to.
Any questions just call the office at 509 928-2777 See You Soon Coleen
