Client Testimonials

 

 “Since working with Laura I have witnessed a powerful transformation in my body toward greater energy and vitality.  She has an incredible body of wisdom about how to heal yourself — through acupressure and mediation sessions she guides you through virtually, through understanding how food can become your most potent medicine, through the right combination of Chinese herbs and vitamins to help balance your system.  When I met Laura my body was really depleted from overwork, stress, poor digestion and an autoimmune condition.  Her guidance, patience and recipes for wellness have given me my health back and more importantly, have given me the tools to properly take care of myself going forward.”

“My life and body were in disarray following a trauma that had affected my family. The combination of western therapy, meditation, and other attempted body work wasn’t helping. I remembered that Laura, who had successfully induced me via acupuncture years earlier had told me that she also offered services on a therapeutic level. I called and scheduled an appointment with Laura. The night after that meeting was the first time since the traumatic event, that my body and mind were able to relax enough to let me have consecutive hours of uninterrupted sleep. I continued seeing Laura every week for about a year, and with each visit, little by little, I felt myself growing stronger and stronger. The cumulative effects from her treatments alone were undeniable and life-changing. I am forever grateful to Laura Erlich and Mother Nurture Wellness, and I know that I am a better mother, daughter, and friend because of the inner strength that she and her treatments helped me reclaim.

“Laura is a lovely, kind, and nurturing soul. I recently moved back to Los Angeles and I got lucky enough to get a recommendation to see one of the top acupuncturist for fertility, Laura Erlich. After years of trying we got a genetically normal embryo at age 42. I attest this to Laura belief in my body, and her guidance with Chinese herbs and a few lifestyle changes. I always feel at ease when I see her and feel blessed to have found her.

“I absolutely love Laura. I got married later in life & we have been on a tough fertility journey. Laura has lovingly supported my husband and I through several miscarriages. Through her guidance, we now have two genetically normal embryos - at the age of 40! While Laura is kind, caring & compassionate, she is also incredibly honest. She is not afraid to tell you what you need to hear - not what you want to hear to improve your changes of having a baby. Even though I was referred by my reproductive endocrinologist, I researched many other acupuncturists before working with Laura, who was the most qualified. I am so glad I did. The office is spacious, you get to lay between cotton sheets & under blankets, not crinkly paper like other acupuncture clinics. They don’t take insurance, but give you super bills to submit to your insurance. You can also buy packages of sessions for an incredible deal!”

“I came to Mother Nurture Wellness to prepare for my second pregnancy through IVF. Laura supported me though the process from start to finish; my weekly acupuncture appointments with her helped me stay calm and grounded, especially as I struggled through the two week wait. When I found out I was pregnant I knew she had played a huge role in the outcome, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

“Laura Erlich is an amazing practitioner: she is a sensitive healer in body, mind and soul. I have seen her in action with many of her patients. Their needs range from infertility to delayed milk production. Laura has incredible discernment; she knows instinctively what to do to help each person individually.  There is intellect and there is the art of healing, Laura has mastered both. It is an honor and privileged for me to know her. I highly recommend Laura for all of your post partum needs. She is truly wonderful!”

"I suffered from migraine headaches for forty years. Most days I woke up around 4 AM with excruciating pain.  What I remember about vacations and trips that my husband and I took were the headaches.  It was hard to enjoy anything, I functioned because I had to, and it seemed lying in bed made it worse. Migraine medicines worked, but I would have what I called a migraine hangover for a couple of days. Then I went to a lecture that Laura held and afterwards I asked her about my headaches.  She told me she had success with headaches.  Very soon after starting treatment the headache pattern changed. Within two months I was going a week or two without headaches, after about six months the headaches I got were not migraines, and were completely manageable. It has been two years since I started treatments with Laura and I am still migraine free. My life really changed. I give thanks to God for putting Laura in to my life."

"I really cannot say enough positive things about Mother Nurture Wellness and Laura Elrich. I first saw her five years ago when I was trying to get my first child out. She was overdue and my doctors were suggesting an induction, which I was trying to avoid. I saw her once and drank the herbs she gave me and it worked like magic. She even came to the hospital to help kickstart my early labor. Jump forward five years and I am seeing her once again after two years of trying to conceive another child. One cycle with Laura and I am pregnant!! Amazing! Laura has even helped me when my back was hurting she gave me a treatment and it made a huge difference. As an added bonus the office support staff is super efficient, kind, and easy to work with and the office itself is a calm and relaxing environment. I've even fallen asleep while receiving treatments which is remarkable for a chicken like me who hates needles."

"I first came to Laura thinking about my future fertility and my life long desire to be a mother. I began with her because I needed to regulate my cycle as I had some medical things in the past that affected my cycle and never allowed me to get a period. I remember going to Laura on a Tuesday to start my regimen with Acupuncture and she provided me with so much helpful information, but most importantly made me feel hopeful and excited for my goal of getting pregnant. My cycle began instantly that Friday which was such a huge step for me based on my past. I continued with Laura weekly and loved going. The environment at Mother Nurture Wellness is so warm and inviting. They began to feel like family. The best part is, about 6 months later I became pregnant and I am due with my first baby beginning November. It's been such an incredible journey and so amazing to have Laura and the team at MNW there since the beginning. They have made this pregnancy so comfortable and I feel amazing! Laura is now my doula and will have taken this entire path from beginning to end with me.

"I feel very fortunate to have been referred to Laura.   She is so insightful, knowledgeable, and wise.  Her passion for her work is evident when you meet with her. For many years I struggled with an irregular cycle.  Laura's use of acupuncture and herbs helped regulate my cycle.  Since I started meeting with her I am healthier and more attuned to my body. I am incredibly grateful for Laura's guidance, help, and support!"

"Laura is truly one of a kind. She provides exceptional care, is extremely knowledgeable, and never turns away a difficult case, which is rare in the health industry. Laura treats you with such care and is truly passionate about her work. I started seeing her well over 2 years ago with an undiagnosed issue. She has provided continued support since then, and with her understanding of both Eastern and Western medicine, she not only was she able to finally help diagnose my issue (after over 10 years), she helped balance my hormones and actually treat my infertility. I now have a 5 1/2 month old son and am actually able to breastfeed (completely not possible per 4 specialists)!!! I owe everything to Laura and I'm so thankful I found her."

"I want to thank you for all that you have done for me over the past year to help make this dream of mine come true. You have been so wonderful and I am certain that you are one of the reasons our baby is with us today!  Thank you for being there - not only for the Acupuncture - but also for all of the counseling and guidance throughout the entire process.  Thank you for always calming me down and putting things in perspective for me during my times of panic and stress.  I am forever grateful for all that you have done and for all of your support."
