I have worked with other acupuncturists in the Bay Area, and I have to say that Julie Hung is the most knowledgeable and experienced on the topic of reproduction and infertility. Her expertise, acupuncture technique and caring attitude are unmatched. She is able to integrate her knowledge of both Eastern and Western medicine to provide quality care to her patients . Julie helped me to get pregnant naturally twice after six failed injectible/iui attempts. The first one ended in a blighted ovum, but we were able to conceive again just three months later. I am now in my second trimester of a healthy pregnancy. I recommended Julie to my girlfriend who was anxious to get pregnant, and now she is also 6 weeks pregnant. I would highly recommend Julie to anyone seeking an experienced and caring acupuncturist specializing in infertility.
************************
What a wonderful treasure it was to find Julie. My husband and I had interviewed with another acupuncturist and were very disappointed. I started having acupuncture treatments with Julie 2 months before beginning my frozen cycle. Her treatments reduced my stress during my ordeal. Julie is really knowledgeable about all IVF procedures and acupuncture. She is personable by following your schedule and calling you about your results. She is always sure to provide her treatments with a friendly caring attitude. We were very happy to see the care and attention Julie applied to her treatments and her knowledge of acupuncture and IVF procedures. Thank you for your friendship and kindness during our sessions together. I firmly believe that your treatments helped my second IVF cycle become a success. My husband and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts and highly recommend you to any in need of acupuncture.
************************
I've tried acupuncture before and did not get the personalized treatment that I have with Julie the Care and concern, but most of all her support ......
I know that if I had not followed her plan with the support of my IVF Dr's that I would not have had 31 eggs to be retrieved. We have 15 viable embryos. We got through the procedures with love and support of Julie and the IVF staff. We are having our first baby in August 2010.
************************
You are truly an angel -- thanks for all your care & support during our journey! A huge Thanks to you!

When I met DR. JULIE Hung, I had a good feeling already that I was in good hands. She is very thorough and very easy to work with in terms of opening up my medical history. She prioritize her patients and she is very knowledgeable about my case. She took care of me the entire time I was seeing her. She only hoped for the Best for me and for all her patients. All she wanted is to find success for her patients. And alas, she/we both found success. I'm 10 weeks 4 days pregnant and I can't help it but give DR. JULIE a Big hug for her endless support and assistance. She healed me and made me energetic every after my acupuncture appointment.
************************
Dr. Hung is a caring and skilled acupuncturist. She is very knowledgeable about assisted fertility methods and the benefits of combining acupuncture and herbs with modern technology.
We had two failed assisted fertility tries before I started acupuncture with Dr. Hung and she has helped us to finally achieve our dream.
We are now ten weeks pregnant and looking forward to the birth of our first child!
Thank you very, very much Dr. Hung.

My husband and I had been trying to have a baby but hadn’t had any luck in 2 years. We went through all the infertility testing and they all turned out to be normal. Month after month of disappointment was driving me crazy so I decided to try acupuncture. After doing some research, I found Dr. Julie Hung. She’s only couple of blocks away from my work and home! I’d a good first consultation with Dr. Hung. She’s patient, easy to talk with and really took the time to listen before she started the treatment. She’s also very knowledgeable in the acupuncture practice. I decided to do regularly weekly treatment with her. Every time I went I was always relaxed, she plays nice and soothing music during the hour treatment. I have been seeing her for 5 months, and now I’m 13 weeks pregnant!
Thank you Dr. Hung for your kindness and your treatment! Thank you for the pregnancy, for treating my body to stay healthy and strong enough to stay pregnant. I’ll go back to her at my 3rd trimester so it’ll help induce my labor naturally and smoothly. I hope that other women can benefit from receiving treatment from you, perhaps some will benefit in parallel to receiving fertility treatments. It’ll be best that there are women who will find you and the good you do and that those women may be able to completely avoid the traditional approach to fertility with injections hormones, etc.!

In order to get ready for IVF procedure, we started acupuncture treatment with Dr. Julie Hung. Dr. Julie Hung is an excellent highly qualified acupuncturist and we would like to list few of our experiences with her.
1. Before she starts treatment, she carefully goes through all your records.
2. She takes time to really treat the patent rather than strict time slots that many of the clinics do.
3. She is more eager to treat and cure the problem at hand. She even calls you herself and finds out about the progress.
4. Once she carefully charts everything the treatment starts.
5. Just not only acupuncture, she is very knowledgeable at Infertility issues, IVF, IUI procedures.
Here are the results that we got after her two months treatment:
1. Back pain gone (cupping)
2. Sleep pattern improved and getting good nights’ sleep.
3. Regularized periods which became irregular after 4 IUI treatments.
4. LAST BUT NOT THE LEAST, TO OUR SURPRISE AND DISBELIEF, WE GOT POSITIVE PREGNANCY RESULT NOW. "WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR. JULIE HUNG, AND WANT TO REALLY THANK HER FOR GIVING US HOPE"
************************
Hi Julie,
Thank you for your best wishes! We did not forget about you, just wanted to finish 1st trimester before writing to you :).
Yes, we have one healthy baby coming soon, this was confirmed in ultrasounds.
Your acupuncture and herbs treatment was very helpful to us. It helped relieve a lot of stress and has had other good medical benefits for our successful pregnancy. Talking to you & your helpful and kind advice also gave us a lot of hope that we would soon be parents. My delivery will be in March 2010 and I've just started my second trimester.
************************
Thanks Dr. Hung, for helping us in reaching our dream of having a baby naturally. We had been trying for 4 years to have a baby before seeing Dr. Hung. My OB and other doctors we’ve seen, after reviewing our test results, all recommended us to IVF treatment. However, we wanted to conceive naturally if at all possible, so we turned to Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine. We met with Dr. Hung at the beginning of the year, and during our consultation, she recommended us to try her treatment for 3-6 months.
My period has always been irregular, so Dr. Hung recommended taking basal body temperature every day, which she used to help identify my ovulation period. Miraculously, the treatment I received regulated my period. She also helped my husband’s issue with sperm motility. And so, 4.5 months later, we finally had a positive pregnancy test. We sincerely thank Dr. Hung for her skills and her attitude in patient care. She is truly amazing in making miracles happen, and we really appreciate all she has done for us. We highly recommend Dr. Hung for any couple having difficulty with fertility.
************************
We are very fortunate to have met Dr. Hung. Without her help, we would not have been able to achieve our dream of conceiving naturally. We had gone through many infertility tests, which showed complicating factors on both the male and female side. However, our doctors could not identify why, for example, the sperm motility was too low. I was recommended to take some supplements to help correct the male factors, but after three months, the test results were the same. I was told we shouldn’t expect enough improvement and that IVF treatment was our best option.
Perhaps this was a way to not get our hopes too high, but we still wanted to try to conceive naturally. So, we decided to see Dr. Hung. After reviewing our test results, she determined a course of action via acupuncture and herbal medicine she thought would help. After three months, my test results were dramatically improved. My wife’s problem with irregular periods had also improved, and just a month afterwards, my wife was pregnant.
The entire process was easy and painless, and the result was exactly what we were looking for. We can’t thank Dr. Hung enough for her efforts.
************************
For our first baby, my husband and I tried for 2 years before were told that we had unexplained infertility". Two IUI/Clomid cycles later, we were blessed to become pregnant.
After our first child was born, we didn't prevent pregnancy, but we didn't conceive. When we were ready to seriously try for our 2nd baby, my husband said that he wanted to avoid "western" medicine. I decided to try acupuncture with Julie, whom I found online through her website. I wanted someone who specialized in infertility and her background seemed to fit what I was looking for. When I met her, I instantly trusted her. She seemed very confident in her knowledge and that was very comforting.
I started acupuncture. I had about 2 visits before I learned that after 4 weeks I would have to go out of town for a 2 week period. We decided that I would start taking herbs, in addition to the weekly acu treatments. That way, I would at least have the herbs while I was away on vacation.
My cycles were previously about 33 days long, but I started ovulating sooner after getting treated by Julie. After 1.5 months of being treated by Julie, we conceived on our own. I totally attribute this miracle to Julie's treatment!
************************
Dear Julie,
Thank you very much for your wonderful treatment: both acupuncture and Chinese herbs which helped me to conceive in the very first month of trying. I have been trying to get pregnant for the past 31/2 years, not being successful with 2 IUIs, thinking that I should only resort to IVF. But then I heard about Chinese medicine and I was lucky to have found you. You are very competent and knowledgeable practitioner. I would trust you just in the very first meeting and that really helped for this success with God's grace. Thank you very much.

Dr. Julie was a very significant part of our experience in successfully getting pregnant. After many months of trying to conceive, we decided to try acupuncture to improve our chances. Fortunately, we found Dr. Julie, whose office was close to us. We were unsure at first, but she immediately made us comfortable by telling us how she might be able to help us and how she had successfully helped other couples in the past. She worked with us to plan our acupuncture and herbal treatment.
We saw and felt improvements right away. In addition to helping our fertility, Dr. Julie’s treatment helped relieved much of the anxiety from our unsuccessful attempts. Where before I had difficulty sleeping at night, I began to relax and fall asleep much easier. My basal body temperature (BBT), which was very low before (at around 97.6 post-ovulation), now went up to 98.3. After just a few months of treatment, we found ourselves looking at a positive pregnancy test. We were beside ourselves with joy and excitement, but unfortunately we had a miscarriage two months later.
We were despondent after our miscarriage. We knew we wanted to try again, but the experience had been so painful and discouraging. However, Dr. Julie kept encouraging us. She told us that it was a crucial time for us to try again, and she resumed our acupuncture and herbal treatment. By this time, we felt so hopeless that we started consulting with an infertility specialist. Dr. Julie suggested that we give the acupuncture and herbal treatment one more month before we started with infertility treatments. Sure enough, the very next month we were pregnant again. Knowing our fears after our earlier miscarriage, Dr. Julie worked with us to modify our treatment and continue it through the first trimester of our pregnancy.
We just completed the first trimester of our pregnancy. We could not have imagined how much joy we would feel until we saw our baby on the ultrasound monitor and heard our baby’s heartbeat through the fetal Doppler monitor. Without a doubt, we could not have made it this far without Dr. Julie’s help and encouragement. We would highly recommend Dr. Julie to anyone trying to conceive a baby.

“It must have been the acupuncture”. This is the first thought came across my mind, when I got positive pregnancy result after IVF! Because that’s the only different thing I did with my last successful attempt. ......
I started going to Dr. Julie Hung 2 moths prior to IVF cycle. On our first consultation, she went over my fertility history in- depth and suggested to meet twice a week for session. She is very friendly and made me feel very comfortable during my treatments. Also her treatment rooms are comfy and offered me much needed serenity. She is an acupuncturist who understands not just fertility question but IVF, which helped me a lot through out my IVF cycle.
Acupuncture has affected my life in a positive way. I tend to be a person who worries too much, but my stress would ease up after her treatments. The relaxation points and fertility points were very helpful in going through IVF. I felt strong and more balanced. After experiencing many stressful drawbacks in my reproductive health, acupuncture has helped me relax.
I highly recommended Dr Julie Hung, to anyone having trouble conceiving or are going through ART.

Dear Julie
We would like to show our appreciation for you and your caring treatment for my wife xxx. After just three visits with you, we got pregnant naturally.
This has been wonderful experience for us, especially trying to get pregnant for past 9 years. We sincerely believe that your acupuncture was very key element in us becoming pregnant.
We want to thank you again and we are highly recommending you to anyone who wants to become pregnant naturally.
************************
Dear Julie,
I would like to thank you sincerely for all you have done for me. You have been so generous, patience and caring with me. More than that, you have also shown me the talent and the professional knowledge in both Chinese medicine and reproductive medicine.
......
During each session, you spent extra hours to walk me through your experience, savoir-faire both medical and technological. Your personalized care can only optimize my chances to success.
On the September 21 2007, I finally detected my first ovulation since last December 2006, less than 3 months of acupuncture treatment along with the Chinese herbal medication under your supervision. 3 weeks later, on the October 6 2007, I found myself pregnant again with the grand joy I have never had since 2005 where I lost my second baby at the 16th week of pregnancy.
......
That’s not only the most beautiful and precious gift I have never had in my life, but also your friendship and companies.
************************
Dear Yenching,
......
On the August 22, 2007, I finally confirmed by my ob-gyn that I had 7 week of naturally conceived pregnant, with the grand joy I have never had for 10 years of trying. Around 3 months of weekly acupuncture treatment along with the daily Chinese herbal medicine under your supervision, my dreams of having pregnant comes true.
I would highly recommend you to any infertility couples to consider acupuncture with you.
************************
Dear Julie,
Thank you very much for the great supports in the past few months. In spite of visiting another acupuncturist for 6 months before our first IVF, we were still fail. I have felt despairing and lonely until I met you.
You impressed me with your strong knowledge and experience in Chinese Medicine and infertility, while your patience and customized-designed treatments gave me a very strong hope. Your unique painless acupuncture skill let me realize that you are the best acupuncturist I have ever met.
Our second IVF was so successful and my physician was so surprised on my dramatic progress. You deserve the credit that changes my life. I strongly recommend you to any couple who are willing to be pregnant.
************************
Dear Julie Hung,
......
I really appreciate your friendliness and genuine care and concern in helping us with our goal of getting pregnant.
......
I also thank you for the acupuncture treatment out of the normal schedule that we had and Sunday morning. As you know, all our efforts paid off with God granting us a double blessing. We look it as a miracle indeed.
As of today we are in our 19 weeks. I have not had any morning sickness. The ultra sounds look good so far. I’ve been doing pre-natal workouts. I’ve really enjoyed this whole pregnancy cycle. I’m so grateful that I can finally experience being pregnant.
......
************************
Dear Julie,
My husband and I would like to thank you for the hope and help you had given us in our quest to have our second baby.
It had been a surprisingly long and disappointing journey, especially considering my history. Although two of my three past pregnancies unfortunately ended in miscarriages, conceiving had never been a problem. So you can imagine the shock this time after months of trying with no avail and the anxeity that started to take over. After my 35th birthday, I was really worried that I might not get another chance to give xxx a sibling.
......
And 3 months into the acupuncture treatment, my husband and I were pleasantly surprised that I got pregnant.
Now that we are happily expecting our second baby in July, we would like to thank you and let you know that we couldn’t be more grateful. In addition to the great result you’d given us, you really made me feel comfortable – going to the sessions felt more like visiting an old friend (well, you are a friend now) than a treatment.
We really appreciate everything that you have done for us. Wish you all our best and hope that more people have the fortune to be helped by you.
************************
Dear Ms. Julie,
Thank you for your support of me throughout this time and journey to get pregnant!!! You were always so kind to me and I appreciate all your time with me.
I will be back someday soon.
I think of you often and I hope you have a great day!!!!!
Keep doing the wonderful work that you do!!!!!!!
Cheers and love!
Hugs -

Before I had acupuncture on my back, I used to have chronic lower back pain and chronic mid-back pain. My pain I had was about 3 years. Jule Hung, thankfully, helped ease my pain with acupuncture. I suggest anyone who has any type of pain to have acupuncture done instead of surgery or pain pills. Thank you Julie Hung.
************************
I have had prostate cancer for many years and I have had the surgery which leaves me with a bladder problem. Since the surgery I have had a urine leakage problem and I decided to try acupuncture. After talking to Yenching Julie Hung the acupuncturist I said why not try and I did. After each treatment the problem seems to get better and better so I have decided to continue with my treatment and I recommend anyone with the same problem to try and see if this works for you.
