Harmonise Auckland Stress and Trauma therapy

At age 41, I had a miscarriage. It was my first pregnancy, and I was heartbroken. Even so, my partner and I continued trying to get pregnant but without success; it was a very stressful and painful process. We so wanted to bring a "little soul" into this world, but were so afraid of not being able to. Already the statistics stated that I had little chance of getting pregnant again, or at least, that trying was craziness.
And it was then that Donna appeared in our lives with her vision that was holistic and full of love. She gave us hope, trust and the power to participate in our own healing process. Later, a little while after starting treatment, we became pregnant again; and it was a wonderful and healthy pregnancy. We gave birth in March, by natural birth, to a beautiful and perfectly healthy girl named Anahata. Donna even came to our home after Anahata's birth to treat me and help me recuperate - and even beautiful Anahata received healing [from Donna].
Donna has a natural gift as a healer and professional acupuncturist. A gift of service. When you are with her you feel at peace, safe and relaxed.
We will be eternally grateful to Donna for helping bring Anahata into the world.

I sought Donna's acupuncture services as a bit of a 'last resort' after unsuccessfully trying to fall pregnant for over two years. My husband and I had been to Fertility Associates and had numerous tests, but they couldn't find any reason for our infertility other than some ovarian cysts (which disappeared when I later fell pregnant).

Our infertility problems had left me pretty 'fragile' emotionally, and I was also very stressed due to a high pressure job. Donna recognised this immediately, and taught me to manage my stress through breathing and relaxation exercises, which we practiced during the acupuncture treatments. I also liked the fact that Donna would use acupressure points during the treatments - a sharp contrast with other acupuncture practitioners I had been to in the past, who would put the needles in then leave you alone in the room for half an hour!

Anyway, to my delight, I fell pregnant on my first full menstrual cycle after starting treatments with Donna! From there, she continued to help me through a reasonably lengthy period of awful morning sickness, and other pregnancy complaints like headaches and hip pain. I always looked forward to my treatments with Donna as I knew I would leave feeling refreshed and uplifted. The combination of acupuncture, acupressure, breathing exercises, and Donna's calm and soothing manner, made the treatments deeply relaxing and rejuvenating.

Finally, whilst Donna's other qualifications in nursing and midwifery gave me great confidence in her knowledge and experience regarding pregnancy, the thing I appreciated the most was her genuine compassion and empathy for my situation. Consequently, I would have no hesitation in recommending Donna's services for anyone needing help with infertility, pregnancy, stress or general health issues.

Thank you Donna, you are a wonderful lady and a true healer!

I highly recommend Harmonise for anyone wishing to achieve optimum health for pregnancy.
I sought treatment to increase my chances of becoming pregnant.
I was an exhausted, moody, stressed working mother with a long history of fertility and pregnancy issues. With a combination of acupuncture, nutritional advice and lifestyle counselling with Donna I felt calmer, more rested, balanced and stronger.
Donna genuinely cares for her clients. When I underwent IVF, Donna treated me at the most inconvenient times to increase my chances of success, even putting her house move on hold on a Sunday to treat me.
Donna continued treatments during my pregnancy through to post birth recovery, helping me cope with both the physical niggles and emotional ups and downs. Her midwifery experience was invaluable and very reassuring.
Harmonise has helped me achieve my goal of having another child and has also given me the knowledge and skills to sustain a healthier, more balanced lifestyle.
Our family are very grateful.
Thank you Donna
