I found Mark after repeated pregnancy loss. His knowledge of eastern and western medicine as it relates to fertility was extremely helpful and reassuring. He is well versed in a variety of fertility issues and understands how Chinese medicine works in conjunction with recommendations from an obgyn or perinatalogist in my case. He is into continuing education and is well networked with others in his field.

He was always available by text or phone and checked in throughout our entire treatment plan. I am now holding my 3 month old baby girl and will be forever grateful to Mark for helping to get her here. I plan to use him again for when we go to have our second child.

I have been suffering of terrible migraines for years, (at least 8 years, and the episodes were at least twice a week); every time I would go to the doctor, thy would give me a bunch of medicines, that would help with the pain, but it wouldnt really help to prevent it, actually, with the years it got worst, adding to the migraines a terrible stomach pain because of so much pills I was taking. I was researching about acupuncture, and I was very nervous to try it, but I am so glad I did, especially at this place.

First the place is super clean, plus, all the measures taken now with covid; really nice and polite people, and the best thing, its been almost 3 months now that I dont have a headache, not even a low one. Sure, I had to go to numerous sessions, but it was completely worth it; so definitely if I could give them more than 5 stars, I would. I am extremely gratefull to them, especially to Kelly.

Saw Kelly for my pregnancy and couldnt be happy with the care received. Her treatments in my first trimester helped with nausea and vomiting and then reduced third trimester ailments such as swelling. Could not have made it through the pregnancy without her support!

Simply wonderful! Heres my story and I hope it encourages women struggling with fertility to seek Marks care. I was told by numerous OB GYNs that it would be extremely difficult for me to have a child of my own. My egg supply was considered incredibly low (5 follicles total) and I had an undetectable AMH. I had tried rounds of Clomid to no avail. I went through a very expensive IVF treatment at a prestigious facility in Colorado in which they were unable to retrieve any healthy eggs. Zero eggs.

I was newly married and devastated so I decided to try acupuncture. I started going to Mark in July 2017 on a weekly basis and within six months got pregnant. I am proud to say I have a healthy little boy. I am forever grateful to Mark for his kindness, continued care and support throughout my journey.

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Cathy Cai during the months I was in Atlanta from Los Angeles and needing an acupuncturist during my stay. What was immediately refreshing is that she sat down with me to go over why I came in, what I needed help with, and how to get there. She truly listened and remembered things about my body and energy in our sessions to come. I had severe carpal tunnel syndrome, depression and anxiety following months of isolation, and inflammation that Dr. Cathy not only treated, but allowed for a smooth transition back to health.

I am so glad I chose to continue my weekly treatments while in Atlanta. During the course of treatment, she would also educate me on which meridians were sensitive and what each needle was in place for. I learned so much on how our bodies are integrated systems, not separated into neat compartments, but rather a network of connectivity. Thank you, Dr. Cathy, for getting me back in balance and for your healing and kind touch.

I can't recommend Mark enough. I saw him for about a year for an infertility issue that seemed hopeless. I was able to see progress during treatment through working in tandem with Shady Grove Fertility (Dr. Namnoum). Now I have a healthy happy baby girl! She really is a miracle and I am so thankful I gave acupuncture a try!

I started seeing Kelly in September of 2019 after several miscarriages and trouble getting pregnant. I was also caring for my terminally ill mother at the time. Kelly was amazing. I love that acupuncture is about full body balance and healing. I certainly feel that the grief and anxiety I was experiencing while losing my mother was a key factor in my infertility. In late November of 2019 my mother passed, and in early December I found out I was Pregnant.

I continued to see Kelly through my first 16 weeks of pregnancy. In September 2020 (when I was 42 weeks pregnant 😅) I went back to use Accupuncture for induction so I could experience an unmedicated childbirth. Less than 10 hours later, I met my little baby girl. I highly recommend Accupuncture for general health.

I started seeing Mark in 2020 as I was trying to get pregnant. Being a bit older I understood the challenges & that it may take longer but I still wanted to try naturally. I met with Mark weekly for acupuncture & he placed me on Chinese herbs to help with various things. I definitely felt better and saw some improvements with my cycle. Towards the end of the year I decided to take time off from treatment, and voila!

I fell pregnant naturally! I really feel the acupuncture & herbs were key & highly recommend Mark: he has a great bedside manner, is very knowledgeable & listens. Now that I am 5 months pregnant Ive seen Mark a few times & after a few more acupuncture sessions Im sleeping better & am not experiencing the hip aches that Im sure come with pregnancy.

Mark Schwartz is the go-to fertility acupuncture specialist for the metro Atlanta area and beyond. If you want the very best, he's the guy. Mark has been an invaluable part of our care team both before and during pregnancy, and has worked miracles for us! Cannot recommend him more highly!

A month ago I began acupuncture with Xiang "Kelly" Li. The results were immediate and transformative from day one. I felt like my old self again. Numbness in my head and body disappeared and circulation greatly improved. Anxiety dropped too and I had a resurgence in interest in activities I used to love to do before as I felt better. I am shocked at the sudden change and I believe it is due to Kelly's expertise.

I had visited another acupuncturist 2 years ago and didn't have similar results.

Kelly is very focused when she works and you can tell she cares about you and her work. She is a great communicator and a patient listener. Most importantly, she's effective! I would highly recommend anyone to give acupuncture a try. I wish I'd gone years ago and I'm thankful to have found a practioner of Kelly's caliber.

Kelly has been really helpful in treating my depression and anxiety. After 9 years of suffering, taking prescriptions that did nothing to improve my health, I was suggested to try Acupuncture and Traditional medicine. I started in March and after two months my anxiety was completely gone and I had felt true happiness for the first time since being diagnosed with depression. I would definitely recommend Kelly! She really takes the time and care into alleviating the problem.
