Spring’s Own Creation Story:
From the moment you step foot into Spring all your senses will be lit with a knowing that we just really get it…
We get the struggle.
We get the heartache.
We get the hopelessness.
Although we have not lived your own unique fertility story, we get your journey.
And why is this?
It is because Leigh, the founder of Spring, walked this journey too.
It was Leigh’s own fertility struggles that birthed Spring.
After 2yrs of trying to conceive naturally, Leigh and her partner Ross knew they needed to dig much deeper into what was going on. And, it was by leaving no stone unturned that they discovered that Ross had a rare immune disharmony in his testes that was causing their infertility.
With both Leigh and Ross being from a science background they dove deep into the research, and things were not looking good. With one specialist even suggesting that a sperm donor may be their only hope.
The heartache that comes with the notion that you may never have a biological child with your life partner is one that only those who have experienced it will understand.
But… Leigh and Ross knew that sometimes the specialist and the research doesn’t take into account the individual, and so began the next phase of their fertility journey.
It was through combining both ancient wisdom with modern science (and a love that existed stronger than ever for their child who at the time seemed so far away) that 2 years and only one IVF round later, Leigh and Ross welcomed their beautiful (and biological) baby girl, Zan into the world.
It is the energy of Leigh’s own fertility journey that radiates from every aspect of the clinic that is Spring. Leigh has created a beautiful and unique space that holds you like the arms of a loving mother when you are in your darkest moments and celebrates with you like only someone who really knows what it took for you to get there, what it took for you to get to the moment when you hold your own beautiful baby in your arms for the very first time.
“It isn’t until you have walked the path, that you will really understand the journey.” ~ Leigh
“We had some challenges with getting pregnant, so I was advised to compliment my diet and exercise plan with some acupuncture which I had never done before. I am also not a fan of needles and was pretty nervous at the first session. Spring Acupuncture was recommended to me and Im so happy I got to meet Leigh – her speciality with fertility acupuncture was obvious in the first session, and I made further sessions a huge priority in our journey to have a successful pregnancy. I found the sessions hugely helpful – both the actual acupuncture itself, but the time with Leigh and her broad knowledge of lifestyle coaching when you’re trying to have a baby incredibly helpful, and it held me to account and motivated me. As well as having a hugely informed and supportive expert to talk to about all things to do with trying to fall pregnant, Leigh educated me on the incredible strength of acupuncture. 6 treatments later and a few months on, I was delighted to fall pregnant and have a perfectly healthy pregnancy – I used a lot of what I had learnt through Leigh during my pregnancy also. We welcomed our daughter 2 weeks ago now – and I would absolutely involve the same type of sessions into any future pregnancy planning. There’s a lot of acupuncture clinics out there – but if the main objective is about fertility, Leigh’s experience and knowledge about fertility when it comes to acupuncture cannot be beaten.”

The Spring team have been an amazing support to me over the past 6 years. Leigh has been with me through each step of the motherhood journey, from fertility struggles, to experiencing loss, to managing morning sickness. Not only are the treatments excellent, but the team’s caring approach leaves a lasting impact. Now as a mum of 3 and my family complete, Spring is still my go-to for managing stress levels and general well being. ~ Kylie
