Treatment Type: Fertility Acupuncture

Ellie Main

Ali is amazing and she absolutely helped me with my fertility struggles. Whilst I needed IVF, I truly believe Ali gave me the best possible shot and we were pregnant with our first IVF cycle. My baby girl is very precious and Ali played a huge part in getting us there. Ellie.

Everytime I’d heard about acupuncture I presumed it was for help with muscle or tissue injuries, aches and pains. I’d never considered it to help with fertility. Struggling to conceive I thought there was no harm in trying it. Aliya was not only very thorough in her treatment but also suggested life changes to help. After a few sessions I immediately felt more energised, my monthly cycle changed just how Aliya said it would. I saw many positive changes. The cycle Aliya predicted was the one did actually work and I gave birth to a healthy baby boy in Nov 18. I was overjoyed ! She is very good at her job and has a lot of experience. I definitely recommend Aliya for acupuncture, not only to help with fertility issues, but also to help to balance your hormones and help you to feel better. I will for sure be using her services again! .

I started to see Ali last year after not having had a period for over seven months. This was following stopping the contraceptive pill after 10 years of taking it. After going to my doctors and also a gynecologist and not being able to find any reasons as to why I did not have a period I decided to give acupuncture a go.

I have to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed every treatment and found Ali to be extremely supportive. 10 months later I am pregnant and seeing Ali on a regular basis and I plan on carrying on with acupuncture once the baby comes. I would definitely recommend Ali to anyone trying to get their cycles back on track and/or wanting to get pregnant. She has such a lovely calming energy, I always look forward to my next treatment.

I started seeing Ali when I felt I was struggling to get pregnant following a miscarriage and then continued to see her when I did manage to get pregnant because my worry was then staying pregnant!

I saw Ali up until week 20 and then again from week 35. I remember her saying she cannot guarantee it but a lot of her clients had produced ‘chilled babies’! I am pleased to say I have had a very happy chilled baby that has been a great sleeper……coincidence or not…?! I also had a labour than was a lot less traumatic than it was expected to be (following a traumatic miscarriage). The labour team were very surprised. So again is this a coincidence or not…?!

I have recommended Ali to other pregnant friends and will definitely be seeing her again in the future.

Aliya is wonderful. It took me a while to conceive with my first and I had acupuncture and when we ready to try for our second I decided to use acupuncture again. As had been trying for a few months with no success. From calling round local acupuncturists, Aliya was by far the most helpful and accommodating. She also has clinics across Manchester, which I found useful as I travel a lot with work. Every time I visited I left feeling very calm and she also provide many useful tips. I found her extremely knowledgeable on fertility. Just after 3 sessions I found out I was pregnant! I would highly recommend Aliya.

I am absolutely delighted to tell you that I am 12 weeks pregnant! Baby is perfect, wriggling away and incredible! I could not have got to this huge milestone without the support, treatment and advice you gave to me. Without you I would never had gone to Zlin (www. Ivf-zlin.com), it was here, and our 6th cycle we finally had success, and would never have found the peace and affirmations within myself which I truly believe was the turning point for me. I will be forever indebted to you! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and I’ll see you in the new year along with my bump! Aliya, keep performing your miracles, you have made my dreams come true, Donna

I am writing this review with my 6 week baby in my arms. After having unexplained infertility and also an ectopic which resulted in loosing a tube I turned to Ali for treatment during ivf cycles. With both my successful pregnancies and also my ectopic I found the treatment supported getting my body into the best place possible for success and even more importantly helped me to stay positive and let go of any stresses going on in life! I would and have recommend Ali to others having ivf or just struggling to conceive. She completely puts you at ease from that first emotional phone call and has been there for me 100% during each course of treatment.

I have been coming to Ali since the end of 2015 after suffering a miscarriage. My cycles were all over the place and I was keen to fall pregnant quickly. Within two good cycles I was pregnant again. She helped me through the pregnancy and I had a very smooth delivery and a healthy little boy. After suffering a second miscarriage in Christmas 2017 she helped me through it all with several treatments close together. A week after the last treatment I was pregnant again. Treatments during the course of this pregnancy kept me very relaxed especially the ‘inducing’ treatments at the end. The birth wasn’t as smooth as baby was a lot bigger but after a postnatal treatment I felt on top of the world. I would recommend meridian to anyone going through similar experiences. I intend to continue the occasional treatment with her even now my family is complete.

I cannnot recommend Aliya highly enough! To give some context, my husband and I had been trying to start a family for two and a half years, during which time we had suffered a miscarriage, been diagnosed with unexplained infertility (during a 16-month period with no pregnancy), an ectopic pregnancy and a failed round of IVF.

Before our second round of IVF, I did some research and saw increasing evidence of acupuncture supporting this, and a friend recommended Aliya.

I must admit, I was sceptical but was willing to try anything. From the very first appointment Aliya put me completely at ease, and identifed issues that had been affecting my fertility. For example, after just 1 session, she managed to drastically ease period pains that had crippled me since my teens.

Aliya and I worked together throughout the IVF, and I had sessions during the entire process, most importantly straight after embryo transfer. The result? I am typing this with my 5-week old son in my arms… whilst my husband is cuddling our 5-week old daughter! Having truly thought I may never have children, I am now the proud (and exhausted) mother of twins, and I truly believe that the IVF success was down to Aliya. Thank you, fron the bottom of my heart x.

I contacted Ali after a recommendation to support my IVF. From the first phone call to Ali she put me at ease and fitted me in straight away for a pre embryo transfer acupuncture treatment then a post embryo transfer acupuncture treatment. Ali put me in the right mind set and I truly believe that without her magic we wouldn’t be where we are today with our positive test result making us 8 weeks pregnant. I have been to see Ali a couple more times since the embryo transfer and will continue to see her through my pregnancy. I would highly recommend anyone needing any help on their journey to contact Ali ????.
