About Ms Karla Perentin
Karla Perentin is an experienced practitioner specialising in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine, and Arvigo Maya Abdominal therapy, particularly for treating gynaecological, fertility, and pregnancy issues. With a passion for combining traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) with Western diagnostic techniques, Karla aims to rebalance hormones, induce ovulation, and prepare the body for natural or assisted conception.
Karla's extensive training includes three years at the London College of Acupuncture and the Northern College of Acupuncture, where she earned a BSc (Hons) degree in Acupuncture, followed by an additional two years of training in Chinese Herbal Medicine. Furthering her expertise, she completed post-graduate training with Dr. Trevor Wing, focusing on TCM, Gynaecology, Obstetrics, and Western and Chinese Medical approaches to fertility.
Karla's approach to patient care is centred around providing efficient and tailored treatment, along with authentic emotional support. She addresses the underlying causes of infertility, assisting both men and women in enhancing their chances of conception, whether naturally or in conjunction with IVF and IUI. Additionally, Karla creates a calm and safe space for her patients to manage and overcome pregnancy-related symptoms, such as morning sickness and lower back pain, while employing proven methods to minimise the risk of miscarriage.
