"Jamie helped me so much during my pregnancy! When I went into labor they checked to see how dilated I was and told me right away how thin and soft my cervix was. I had been told I would need to be induced, but I think because of my weekly acupuncture treatments, it was not necessary. Highly recommend Jamie for labor prep acupuncture!”

“Hi Jamie, just wanted to give you an update and say a huge thank you. On Tuesday night I thought I was going into labor but everything basically stopped on Tuesday night. Induction on Wednesday actually went really well and I think it was in huge part due to a month of acupuncture. My husband did really well with acupressure during labor and the whole process only took 6.5 hours - only two of which were really painful and he came out in one push. Anyway, thanks for all your help. I’m spreading The good word about acupuncture!!! I wish I had known about it’s benefits when I was pregnant with my first son. So, I’m Actually super glad he was breech for a bit and it lead me to you."

"The induction was much better than I thought. I had very little pain (other than a crazy headache) until they broke my water at 6cm. After that things did get much stronger and I took an epidural. But... my cervix dilated and I was able to deliver vaginally (they had been thinking it would have to be a c-section based on how she was tolerating the contractions). I only had to push for 15 minutes and she came right out! I feel the acupuncture really helped to get my labor started naturally, and I was able to avoid having a C section that was originally planned!” (This patient had two labor acupuncture sessions starting at 36 weeks, and two natural labor encouraging sessions starting at 38 weeks.)

Jamie is a magician! From sinus congestion due to allergies, back pain, and urinary incontinence during pregnancy and postpartum, Jamie’s acupuncture care consistently made a huge difference in my quality of life. I was shocked that acupuncture was able to help my body with so many different things. This is one of the best wellness/self-care services I have ever had. Jamie makes anyone feel safe and heard when assessing symptoms and partners with you in making a treatment plan. I cannot recommend her care enough!

"Very fast and efficient labor, I was dilated to 10 cm's when I arrived to the hospital, and didn't even have enough time for a water birth like I had planned. I had very minimal pain, and felt like everything went very smooth, efficient and fast. Baby has been doing great. Baby came 2 weeks early, and initially I just thought I was having braxton hicks. I only had 1 1/2 hours of contractions and then one hour of active labor with pushing." (This patient had just one labor prep acupuncture session.)

“I can’t say enough about the care and support I received from Jamie Schafer throughout my pregnancy and postpartum journey, not once, but twice. From the very beginning, I felt completely supported during what can be such a transformative and sometimes overwhelming time.
During pregnancy, Jamie’s treatments helped ease common discomforts and allowed for a reset of my body with each session. One of the most incredible outcomes was the difference between my two labors, pushing was reduced from three hours with my first (pre-acupuncture) to just ten minutes with my second. I truly believe that consistent acupuncture care played a meaningful role in preparing my body for that experience.
Postpartum support was just as impactful. Jamie helped me navigate recovery with a noticeable reduction in anxiety, improved sleep, and relief from night sweats. She also significantly improved the neck and back pain I experienced from the constant rounding and posture strain of nursing. Each session created space for me to reset and heal, both physically and mentally, during a critical time.
What stands out most is Jamie’s attentiveness and personalized approach; every session felt tailored to exactly what I needed in that moment. It’s rare to find someone who combines such deep expertise with genuine compassion. I’m incredibly grateful to have had this support through my second pregnancy and two postpartum experiences; it made a lasting difference in my overall well-being.
