“Cried my eyes out watching our story. I owe EVERYTHING, my entire world to Meredith Martin. She’s the reason we have these perfect miracle babies and was my biggest cheerleader throughout our entire journey.”

Small World!
I found Meredith Martin in February 2017 while on a long and winding road toward having a baby. After a couple of years of trying, losses, and many doctors' appointments, I committed to the IVF path and discovered Gynovisceral Manipulation just as I was starting IVF treatment. I wanted to give myself the best chance at IVF success and I'm so happy I decided to give Meredith and this manipulation approach a shot. Even though abdominal massage was uncomfortable at first, I became hooked because I felt progress in loosening and repositioning my abdominal/uterine area and I grew confident that it would improve my chances of a successful IVF cycle. And I believe it did--I'm now awaiting the debut of my first child! If I decide I want a second, I would absolutely return to Meredith for therapy before considering IVF again.
The only bittersweet aspect to achieving my goal is that I miss seeing Meredith! She gave me physical and emotional comfort, confidence, and knowledge during our sessions. Meredith still makes me feel like she's on this journey with me, checking in on me and encouraging me throughout my pregnancy. I am so thankful I found her when I needed her the most.

“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Meredith during the summer of 2021 after I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility. My husband and I had been TTC for a year and a half and I had just experienced my first unsuccessful IUI. During our first conversation she said to me, “if you were my sister I would suggest this to you.” It was right then that I knew she was not only a very intelligent and knowledgeable individual, but she was also extremely caring and would guide me with love even though we had only just met. When we met in person for the first time I immediately felt comforted during what was a very stressful time in my life. She helped me to gain a better understanding of what was happening not only in my body, but also in my mind. I left our first meeting feeling empowered and changed fertility doctors (to someone she recommended). This fertility doctor echoed all of the same concerns and explanations that Meredith had told me. This only further confirmed that Meredith knew what she was talking about. It was not long after this that I had my first positive pregnancy test (no fertility treatments needed!). I continued to work with Meredith during my first trimester to ensure I was nourishing my baby with all of the proper nutrients. I know that working with Meredith played a huge role in my success story and I highly recommend her to everyone!”

“I started seeing Meredith for Massage therapy a few years ago. I loved how knowledgeable she was and how deep she went with her massage. Fast forward to Fall 2017, trying to conceive for a second time after 6 years and having no luck but also being told by my Dr that they couldn’t find anything wrong with me. I knew I didn’t want to take medication but I also didn’t know what to do. Then I remembered Meredith had a fertility program and emailed her right away to see if she could help. I met with Meredith for six sessions of fertility massage along with supplement and dietary support. Low and behold just two months later not only was I pregnant, but with twins! After months of all-day sickness, and once I was able to basically stand upright again (twins will do that to you I have learned), I transitioned yet again to seeing Meredith for prenatal massage. And, once these girls are born, you can bet I will be right back on the table trying to get my body realigned and feeling good. Thank you Meredith for being my GO TO massage therapist and the one person I refer everyone I know to!”

“I came to Meredith after 4 years of TTC both naturally and through fertility treatments. I had just finished my 3rd round of IVF with zero normal embryos to transfer and I couldn't take "no" for an answer. Every doctor had told me that I was "young and healthy", but something didn't seem to add up.
From my 3 hour initial consultation with Meredith I felt that someone in the medical community was finally looking at my body as a whole. She discovered that there were a few things "off" and recommended diet changes, product changes, and pelvic massages. After 4 months of treatments with Meredith and changes to my lifestyle, we started our 4th round of IVF. We ended up with 3 normal embryos (first time ever!) and our 1st successful transfer! Our miracle baby girl is due November 2020!
I can wholeheartedly say that Meredith and her expertise were a big part for our success. I was equally impressed with the way Meredith dialed in changes for MY body (not a one size fits all), encouraged me along the way, and provided so much positive energy and support during such a difficult time. I only wish that I had found her earlier in our journey!”

“I came to Meredith after trying to conceive for 3 years with the goal of natural pregnancy.
I had tried everything on my own, had a “ natural fertility nutrition consult”, series of acupuncture with herbal treatments, fertility coaching and medical fertility clinic testing. Only diagnosed with the classic “unexplained infertility”. She provided me with a non-judgemental, calm, peaceful, inviting space. Helped me to navigate and really individualize lifestyle and nutritional needs. Along with supporting and nurturing mental and spiritual health (very under appreciated in many other areas!)After going through a hysteroscopy to have 2 fibroids removed, I visited her for a second time and round of reproductive organ massage. She also helped guide my decision to follow a recommendation from my doctor on taking a course of antibiotics for possible endometritis.
Not long after, I am over the moon excited, writing this at 3 weeks pregnant!”

“I was first referred to Meredith from a new acupuncturist I started seeing at the end of 2016, Dr. Christy Sica. We had experienced an ectopic pregnancy in summer of 2015 and a number of failed IUI cycles summer of 2014. We went through uterine septum surgery in fall 2014 to prepare for IVF as I had a uterine wall. We wanted our first child at the time after 5 years of marriage and I did not want more waiting and thought IVF may be the way to go instead of more natural route.
A friend encouraged me to try this therapy namely reminding me that as a giver, I needed to learn how to care for myself and receive before I could carry a child (Meredith also spoke to me about this). I went to first appointment to see and immediately felt so cared for. Talking to another person (not a shrink/therapist) who was going to be touching and restoring positive energy to my body in noninvasive way was new and VERY healing. She could easily hold all my emotions.
As I write this, we are 6 months pregnant anticipating our beautiful miracle. I met with Meredith monthly to "prepare my garden" for the fruit that was coming. Following the ectopic surgery there was likely scar tissue that needed healing and emotionally I needed healing. She remained hopeful throughout and I feel this journey helped heal me physically, psychologically, and spiritually. She allowed and accepted all my emotions- anger, sadness, fear. The pelvic physical work - gynovisceral manipulation she did with never hurt and I started experiencing more love, acceptance, and wonder at my own body. She referred me to chiropractor (also very healing and natural) and new fertility practice.
We reviewed nutrition, supplements, books, articles and had splendid conversations about spirituality and miracles during and sometimes in between appointments.
I always felt moved, supported and even felt like the work healed older childhood wounds. Her care and this practice were a sacred healing gift that I attribute to my wellness, the wellness of our marriage, and our baby's soul joining us when we were ready. Thank you Meredith for sharing your gift and for your loving care.”

"I had an amazing experience working with Meredith. She never once made me feel like my dreams were unrealistic and I always felt comfortable asking her about anything. There were a few moments I had to take a leap of faith and completely place my trust in her instructions and I'm so glad I did because we're meeting our baby boy in June! She kept me motivated, offered real world advice, and has even checked in on me throughout my pregnancy. I would highly recommend working with Meredith!"

“I saw Meredith for six sessions to treat two small polyps I had along with heavy menses. Not only did my menses lessen, my PMS symptoms also improved along with an overall healthier cycle. My whole pelvic region went through a healing transformation that I could feel both physically and emotionally. An added bonus to all this was the boost it gave to my already satisfying sex life. Working with Meredith was such a positive healing experience. She is one of the most genuine, caring, supportive people I have ever encountered in my search for healing and on top of all that she is very effective at what she does. I whole heartedly recommend Meredith and Mercier Therapy to any woman who wants to connect to their inner wisdom and take back control of their reproductive health and well being.”

“Meredith Martin has her practice in Middletown and has been working on my reproductive organs to promote positive blood flow and to mobilize my uterine position. My uterus is retroverted meaning tilting back! She has interpreted my labs in a way that I can understand, not rushing me and helping me through natural vitamins and supplements to restore my body’s deficiencies so that I may finally celebrate a Mother's Day. In my sessions of treatment I already feel better. My uterus is not as tight, my period - that would not come, came full force and with ZERO pain. I always have to take Advil the first day and I can feel my ovaries moving and grooving getting ready for ovulation! What was a very isolating and hopeless trial has turned into a journey of hope for the future! I will always be grateful to Meredith for giving me the best chance possible to making a baby!
P.S. I feel my right ovary talking!”
