Verified Testimonial for Kourtney Zamora, L.Ac.
“After meeting Kourtney, a local Acupuncturist in my area I decided to add it to my routine to boost my chances of conception. I saw Kourtney once a week for 2 months and on my 3rd cycle we got pregnant! Once we had confirmed pregnancy, Kourtney worked on my body every 2 weeks to support the pregnancy. We have now made it out of the 1st trimester and I am SO grateful to have her helping me with an old hip injury that is flaring up due to pregnancy."

"Kourtney is amazing! She is so sweet, calm and professional. I had never received acupuncture before but have always been interested. I started seeing her for the pre-birth acupuncture she offers and my goodness, I feel so great after each session, which is hard to believe being in third trimester. Even my husband has commented on how relaxed I am. I plan on continuing to see Kourtney even after I have the baby because she is that good!" -M.S. 5/21/2018

4. Postpartum
Please schedule your appointment four weeks after delivery. The four to six weeks following birth should be a time for rest, eating well and bonding so it's best to stay home during this time. We can help with some complications after four weeks such as low milk supply, anxiety, depression and improving digestion, c-section scar reduction.

“I went to Kourtney during my pregnancy and afterwards. I slept better and was more comfortable after each session and I believe my labor and recovery were easier due to her. She really cares about her patients and goes above and beyond.” -A.H. 6/7/2018
