The Nest Chicago

"The Nest and Jen is one of my favorite places. I look forward to my weekly acupuncture session. As my husband and I are in our TCC journey, Jen has been a great resource to us. She is willing to take time to answer all my questions, give lifestyle change suggestions, and just overall is the support we need. I have seen significant improvements in my fertility during my time with Jen. I would recommend The Nest to anyone trying to conceive!"

"I cannot recommend The Nest highly enough. I found Jen after experiencing failed IVF treatments, and her care truly made all the difference for my body, mind, and soul. Beyond her deep expertise in Chinese medicine, Jen has been an incredible pillar of support and knowledge throughout the long road of fertility treatments, pregnancy, and now postpartum. The vibe at The Nest is incredibly calming and intentionally designed for healing. Each treatment room is comfortable, warm, and zen-like, with perfect lighting and sound machines that allow for total relaxation. It is truly a sanctuary. The office itself is exceptionally well-run. Zoe is hands-down the kindest, most engaged office manager I have ever encountered in a medical practice--everyone here is treated like family. The Nest has become an essential part of my life and my overall wellness. If you are looking for compassionate, expert care in a peaceful environment, this is the place."

"Jen and her team have been the most supportive during my infertility struggle. The time spent @ The Nest was the best time I could've devoted to myself and my health. Thank you Jen and Zoey for always being so kind, helpful, encouraging and supportive. Love this place & I recommend it to anyone who I encounter, as it has truly changed my life, my health and my perspective on how to take care of my body. If you're thinking twice on whether to see Jen, I say pick up the phone and make your first appointment. You will be so happy you did! Love you Jen!"

"I started acupuncture to support my TTC journey after experiencing a pretty traumatic loss earlier in the year. While there was a lot of confusion for me about the right next steps to take medically (medicated cycles, IUI, IVF) I knew I wanted to add acupuncture as a way to support my body. Since starting acupuncture my cycles became much more regulated and predictable which has allowed my partner and I to not feel so beholden to medical intervention but fully supported if that is our choice. I also really appreciate how understanding and informative both Jen and Julie have been not only about my treatment with them, but in sharing their incredible breadth of knowledge about the fertility community. It is so daunting and emotional when you are first exploring fertility treatments and having practitioners who value you as individual human being makes a huge difference. Also special shout out to Zoe who could not be more helpful, they have helped me with figuring out my insurance and been super available and communicative in making sure I can get an appointment when it makes the biggest impact."

"I don't even know where to start! I have been going to The Nest for about 7 years now. From my fertility journeys, to my own general health and well-being and now for my kids health and well-being, we are so grateful for these ladies and the care they provide to us. The level of care and attention they provide their patients is excellent. I have had personal experience with Jen and Julie and they are both just great. They have rescued my family many a times when we were sick by providing us with individualized care and herbs that help promote healing and natural recovery from illness while regulating temperature and infection if needed. (Side Note: My son has never even had to have Tylenol because of these wonderful ladies and their comprehensive herbs). I could literally go on and on but I will stop and say, you will not regret your experience:)"

"The Nest practitioners are geniuses with Chinese Medicine. They have helped me and my family with all aspects of our health, both physical and mental, so much so that we use their services as primary care. I can't recommend them highly enough!"

"Jen is the sweetest, most caring person! She was with me for my egg retrievals and transfers at the surgery center. This last retrieval was not successful but she made every step seem less stressful. So thoughtful and comforting. Would give her 10 stars if I could. She is personable and always so happy to see both my husband and I when we return, even after taking a year off IVF. So thankful she was with us on our journey. Thank you Jen for everything you do"

"After over 10 years of acupuncture at The Nest, I cannot write a review that glows brightly enough for these amazing practitioners! I have worked with every clinician there, and have only wonderful things to say about them! I started my acupuncture journey as a hard skeptic, having had no experience with Traditional Chinese Medicine whatsoever. They had to work to win me over! I knew I wanted kind, caring, considerate acupuncturists who would truly listen to me, and that is exactly what I have always gotten at The Nest. I started out just wanting some help getting pregnant, and it worked! Continuing acupuncture care through both of my pregnancies had a huge impact on my physical comfort in all the crazy ways that pregnancy changes your body--especially nausea and fatigue. Between and after my pregnancies, the practitioners at The Nest have been instrumental in helping me combat pain from autoimmune disease (rheumatoid arthritis). In fact, mainly due to their care, I am largely PAIN-FREE without medication and have been for years!!! Jen and her staff have always been incredibly kind to my children when I bring them with me. She has successfully treated them to alleviate symptoms of sensory sensitivities, concussions, colds, coughs, flu, pink eye, and eczema. My children and I depend on Jen's vast knowledge and experience with TCM to recover faster from all those lovely germs the kids bring home. I cannot say how grateful I am! Jen and her staff don't just take care of my physical body, either; they also share a deep empathic spirit for their patients. Jen has journeyed with me through my emotional upheaval and divorce, and always makes time to listen to my pain and joys. I cannot imagine my life without Jen and her staff at The Nest, and I am so grateful for their loving care. Thank you Jen! You're the best! "
