Hi Has anyone been to Zita West clinic, London for acunpuncture to increase chance of getting pregnant?

I am thinking of doing it and wonder if they are good. They do charge more than other practitioners, so i wonder if they are worth the extra money.

Thanks !

If you can afford it anything's worth a go. I had reflexology and accu and got pregnant and I had stopped having periods so I'm all in favour of trying other things alongside conventional treatment.

I went once but was put off going again by the cross selling.

The acupuncturist wanted me to see a midwife so I could learn about cervical fluid etc etc (which I am already pretty clued up about). She also suggested that I see their nutritionist. I felt pretty pressurised and decided to see someone locally just for the acupuncture instead. If you want the whole package, then Zita West might be the place for you.

In the same price league, but I believe more focused on the acupuncture, is the Kite Clinic. You might want to read their website too to see what you prefer. I have not tried Kite as am happy with my local lady but would go there if I was looking again.

Hi Ohjoy
I strogly recommend Daniel Elliot and team ( Harley St, Chiswick, Ealig & Windsor). The whole team are highly specialised in fertility acu and cost me c £60 for first session and c£45 thereafter. I've heard ZW's acus are c£80 and are 5 elements acu rather than Trad Chineese Med.

Good luck with which ever you choose
