Cultivate, Acupuncture Center for Women — Local services in Nashville-Davidson

I had such an amazing and life changing experience with Renee. My pregnancy struggles started after I had my first child in November 2017. My husband and I tried for a second child when our first born was 1 years old. After trying for several months we got pregnant but soon after we had our first miscarriage. Within the next 2 years we had 2 more early stage miscarriages. I was mentally and physically struggling with the loss that my body had been going through and started to research other avenues. I had several friends recommend acupuncture in the past but I didn't take it very serious but after all this loss I started to open my mind to other options. I had a friend recommend an acupuncturist that was over 6 months waiting list so I started to do some research and found Renee. I really love that Renee is a one woman show. I feel like when I'm in her office that its very private and personal. I am able to relax in her office and she gives me her full attention. She really listens to me and doesn't put out any judgement but just gives excellent suggestions and recommendations. I consider myself to have a very healthy lifestyle but my my body wasnt at the stage it needed to be to get pregnant. I took in all Renee's recommendations and made some changes to my lifestyle and 4 weeks later I was pregnant and this one stuck. I continued to see Renee throughout my entire pregnancy and on August 4, 2021 we delivered a healthy baby boy. I feel so blessed that Renee has been with me throughout my entire pregnancy journey and has given me all the health pre pregnancy, pregnancy, and post pregnancy tips to prepare my body to bring this beautiful baby...

I started going to Renee out of pure curiosity...little did i know how much her treatments would impact my entire life. I learned that even the smallest, insignificant symptom tells a story of whats going on inside of you. As a massage therapist i have always preached to my clients to listen to your body and not ignore your pains or discomforts. Acupuncture takes it even deeper and every time i go i learn more and more...i always leave with a greater respect for the human body. And with her background in pharmaceuticals, she will better understand your current situation and set even clearer goals for your health and well-being. Quite frankly, her intelligence blows me away.

Currently we are working hard on my sleep issues, which in perspective, is not a big deal. I still get the feeling of a nights rest and have energy for the day. However, waking up every night between 2 and 4 a.m is super annoying, and as you guessed, means something is out of balance in my body. So i am taking care of it now before it really becomes a larger issue (like my mom who cant even produce those sleep hormones any more) . So just because something is or may be "genetic" doesn't mean you have to experience it too. My sleep has improved dramatically since I have started going and still have some work to do. So, if you're curious about going, expect to be patient, trust your body and let it do its thing. All in all, I feel as though I can never ever live without her and...

I cannot say enough good things about Renee and Cultivate! I began seeing Renee in 2022 for infertility. I continued to see her through two early miscarriages until I became pregnant with my son a year and a half later. Renee is such a calming presence and always helps you feel validated and well cared for. Renee helped me through my struggles with infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss and the many tests and procedures I had prior to conceiving my son. She is so knowledgable when it comes to hormones, a healthy menstrual cycle, infertility, pregnancy loss, pregnancy, labor, and birth. I have no doubt that the lifestyle and diet recommendations from Renee and the acupuncture treatments I received greatly contributed not only to a successful conception but also my healthy pregnancy and delivery! At the end of my third trimester, I was able to squeeze in two visits with Renee to hopefully encourage labor and my baby was born a few days later, without interventions, just as I dreamed. If you are thinking of trying acupuncture, the team at Cultivate are amazing and extremely invested in helping you reach your goals, whatever they may be. I cannot thank Renee enough for helping regulate my menstrual cycles, decrease my anxiety, and for being such a kind person during the hardest and saddest times of my life. I can’t wait to get back to Cultivate and try their...
