Read What Our Past Clients Have Said…

My experience with acupuncture with Lara at Yinstill has been completely life changing.

I had no idea how much I had been missing out on support until I arrived at Yinstill.

As soon as you walk in it’s a very welcoming and peaceful environment , with very kind and understanding staff.

I am now a believer in the benefits and power of acupuncture as part of the fertility journey.

I was doing acupuncture treatments sporadically at another location in preparation for IVF treatment but with the first 3 IVF transfers being unsuccessful. With the fourth try, I asked our fertility clinic for referral and got referred to Yinstill with acupuncture sessions by Lara.

I would highly recommend Yinstill and Lara…

I reached out to Yinstill after a year and a half of struggling to conceive. I saw Lara for acupuncture treatments and she was great! She listened to me and worked with me to create a plan for improving my fertility.

I felt more energized and better muscle recovery

Every pregnancy is different and doesn’t always come easy. This ran true for myself, when my husband and I were on a mission to add another bundle of joy to our family. I thought that since getting pregnant the first time was easy – we barely even tried – didn’t even bother with ovulation kits or tracking or anything – so naturally I thought that this time wouldn’t be any different.

I could immediately see and feel my hormones become more balanced

After the birth of my third child, I became ill with what I would later learn was an atypical hormonal imbalance. I felt it was hopeless until I started acupuncture treatment with Elise. I could immediately see and feel in very tangible ways my hormones become more balanced and act as they should.

She really taught me how to listen to my body

I came across Yinstill in 2019 after two years of trying to conceive without any joy. I had been through the medical system already- starting with the family doctor & then moving onto the fertility clinic.

After a few months of acupuncture at Yinstill, my next round of IVF was successful

I started going to Yinstill in the fall of 2018 after a failed round of IVF treatment. Right away, I felt welcomed by the front desk staff and the peaceful and inviting clinic. Dr. Pentland was extremely supportive and truly took the time to listen to my questions and concerns.

After a year of trying to conceive…

After a year of trying to conceive with no luck, I had started fertility testing with my GP and was on a long waitlist to see a gynecologist. While I waited a friend suggested I go to Yinstill and I could not be more grateful!

Beyond my gratitude for her support

My journey with Junko started about three years ago and I now consider acupuncture sessions with her an important part of maintaining health and returning to health when I get overly stressed or make less good choices.

Sean was Pivotal on our Journey

I’ve been seeing Sean for about 5 months now to help with fertility. It has been a really great experience working with Sean. He is a great listener and an excellent practitioner and I think that working with him has been pivotal in helping us get pregnant.

Junko helped regulate my cycle and conceive!

I went to Yinstill and saw Junko weekly in an effort to regulate my hormones and cycles when my husband and I were trying to conceive. Her warm and professional demeanour made me feel comfortable from the start (important as I had never been to acupuncture before) and it was relieving to have someone to talk to along our fertility journey.

Good Energy

Sean’s lighthearted energy and gentle needling always have me feeling relaxed and receptive for treatment. I find myself smiling during our interactions. He’s very thorough and is always curious about how to support my cycle through acupuncture.
