Testimonial for Akemi Tsuru CD(DONA)
Akemi was a great help to me. She invested time in advance of our birth to get to know us and our intentions, and provided positivity as I waited until 41 weeks and eventually needed to be induced. She helped us weigh different induction methods the doctors suggested, and advocate for my needs in the hospital. Most importantly she provided crucial support with comfort measures, providing the Tens electrostimulation device that gave me so much relief during early labor and showing me creative postures in the highest point of active labor. She also used pressure points to give me relief during intense contractions while I got my epidural and waited over an hour for it to work. I’m so grateful for her calm demeanor, thoughtfulness, and years of diverse experience.
