Hi Beautiful!
I'm Caroline Grace Ashurst, M.Ac., L.Ac., award-winning Acupuncturist and Holistic Fertility Coach. I help women who are discouraged and frustrated with their fertility journey heal inside + out, renew their hope, and get their lives back so they can make their baby dreams come true without losing themselves in the process!
Together, we will help you (re)gain trust in your body’s innate ability to conceive, and transform your journey in body, mind, and soul. My goal is to help you get pregnant faster, have a healthy pregnancy and baby, and achieve life-long vibrant well-being for yourself, your family, and the earth.
I will give you the roadmap to create nourishing and healthy rituals that help you feel like yourself again inside and out so you can have success in your fertility journey….and the medicine I offer my clients is Warm, Nurturing, Judgement-Free Expert Guidance.
I’ve helped women all over the world heal inside and out, overcome their doctors’ diagnoses and get pregnant naturally. I’ve also helped women going through previously unsuccessful rounds of IUI and IVF balance their hormones, and finally have success so they can bring home their babies!
My trauma-informed background helps me support you in a grounded, hopeful, safe and loving way. I am no stranger to grief and loss, and I am devoted to walking through the shadow with you in order to help you meet your rainbow.
My personal journey with hormonal health challenges and motherhood in my late-30’s inspired my life-long commitment to empowering women’s health through education, healing, and advocacy.
