A comprehensive intake is completed during the initial session, with a full exploration of past and current health issues. The intake process is not filling out forms, but rather a discussion with you to hear all your concerns. All results are clearly communicated to you. Developing a therapeutic relationship with the client is important at Ridgefield Acupuncture.
No, acupuncture should not hurt. Sometimes there will be prick felt as the needle is being inserted followed by a feeling of heaviness, pressure around the needle. The dull pressure or tingling around the area during the session is a normal part of the acupuncture treatment. Most people are amazed by how relaxed they feel during and after the treatment.
Bad posture will force the body to compensate for twisted, hunched and titled joints and muscles. Faulty posture leads to adaptations by muscles and the. Let's talk about back pain. From achy stiff back in the morning to severe debilitating throbbing, back pain is the most common ailment for people.
Last year I wrote a blog post about caffeine and the negative impact on fertility. Many of my clients inquiry how does caffeine affects fertility, which is a tough question to answer from a Western medicine perspective. Last year two studies were published on caffeine and how it influences cells and hormone levels.

I started seeing Samantha in January 2021 to assist in my fertility journey after several months of trying to conceive. Samantha was very thorough in her approach and has an abundance of knowledge. We began working together to shorten my cycles and track my ovulation. My body responded to treatment rather quickly, however we brought in an RE to also rule out any medical issues. I chose to do a round of letrozole with timed intercourse while receiving acupuncture to help our chances. We conceived on our first try (March 2021)! I have continued to work with Samantha through my pregnancy. I am currently

Being someone who hates needles, I have always been hesitant to try acupuncture. After having on going back and neck issues, I have tried various doctors and medicine. Without any relief I was recommended Samantha Jacobs practice. I am not one to ever write reviews, but she is one of the very few people who is beyond professional and great at her job. The most important part was how caring, open, and compassionate she was. If you're debating to try acupuncture, then Samantha Jacobs at Ridgefield Acupuncture is your person!!! I am already seeing progress in a few sessions after months of pain.

Samantha is a very skilled, caring and intuitive acupuncturist. Deciding to include acupuncture on my fertility journey has really been a blessing and I attribute that to Samantha’s attentiveness to my specific goals and feelings.
I highly recommend her for anyone that is considering acupuncture as a part of their journey to conception.
