At 34 weeks pregnant, my baby was in the breech position. I came to Acubalance in desperation, unsure of what acupuncture and moxabustion was all about; I was willing to try anything to get the baby to turn. I was planning a home birth and if the baby didn’t turn in time, I would be…

During the first four months of my pregnancy, I was experiencing nausea 24/7. I also had vertigo, and the intermittent dizziness would aggravate the nausea. Lorne Brown was highly recommended by a good friend of mine because of his experience treating women’s health issue, in particular pregnancy and infertility. I was nervous as I had…

I had a very positive experience with using acupuncture to induce my labour. I decided to use acupuncture because it is less intrusive and a more natural method than the hormone/drug-induced labor. After waiting one week past my due date, I began treatment with Lorne. I felt extremely comfortable and at ease as Lorne clearly…

I had suffered for the first four months of my pregnancy with severe back pain. I could not sit for longer than three minutes without needing to stand up or lie down due to the discomfort in my back. Eating-out became a nightmare and I often would have to stand as I could not sit…

I credit the acupuncture treatments and support with managing the initial symptoms and then having an almost  symptom-free twin pregnancy. As you know, I had no previous experience with acupuncture when I…

I came to the clinic in early September when I was 34 weeks pregnant with my second child. She was diagnosed as breech by my midwife and I was encouraged to try Moxibustion treatment to turn her. My first child, a son, was an undiagnosed breech presentation and I had to undergo an emergency cesarean…

I went to see Dr. Lorne Brown for cervical-ripening treatments when I was in my 36th week as I wanted to increase my chances for a speedy delivery. I was very impressed with Dr. Brown’s professionalism and depth of knowledge regarding issues I was having during my pregnancy. I am happy to report that my…

Hi, Acubalance! Well, whatever you did to help induce me – worked!!  On Friday, it seemed like early labour was setting in, cramping was getting well underway by 10am. I went to hospital about 5:30pm or so and Brielle was born at 8:11pm. I am just so happy she is on the outside now! I will…
