In this episode of Birth, Baby! Podcast we have Sadie Minkoff joining us to talk about acupuncture and its place in the prenatal period. Together we explore how acupuncture can support reproductive health, address common pregnancy complaints, and assist with breech presentation and labor preparation. The conversation highlights the holistic approach of acupuncture and its role in enhancing the pregnancy experience, while also addressing common concerns such as needle phobia.
Sadie Minkoff L.Ac., FABORM (she/her) is the clinical director of the largest reproductive acupuncture practice in central Texas, a pioneer in the field, she is known for her intuitive and compassionate care. For over twenty years she has worked with her partner, Dr. Mitch Schreiber DACM. Together they opened Sage Acupuncture, Austin’s premier holistic fertility clinic. Later they founded The Cancer Wellness Center for patients, survivors, and their caregivers. Sadie and Mitch dedicated their life’s work to fertility and oncology because their family has been personally touched by both. It is their mission to support others faced with these challenges by providing exceptional care in a healing environment.
One of the most rewarding aspects of Sadie’s work is educating patients, other acupuncturists, and healthcare professionals about integrative reproductive medicine. She is honored to be part of creating the great team at Sage that has received the Austin Chronicle’s Award for Best Acupuncture Clinic, Best In Birth Austin Award for Best Acupuncturists, Austin Birth Award for Best Acupuncture Clinic & Best Herbalist. They were also named Best Austin Acupuncturists in Tribeza’s Wellness Guide and by Expertise.com .
