Cultivate, Acupuncture Center for Women

I started my acupuncture treatment 2 years ago while going through IVF and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. Renee and Karen are the most knowledgeable, professional and caring people I’ve ever met. I feel so blessed to find them. They played a huge part in my fertility journey. Now I’m pregnant with my miracle baby! I definitely recommend them 100%. Thank you Renee and Karen. God bless you always.

Over the past year, I have received acupuncture from Renee and Karen and massage therapy from Kathryn at Cultivate. What began as a desperate attempt to regain control of my body transformed into a journey of self-appreciation, relaxation, hope, and friendship. I cannot recommend Cultivate highly enough, whether you are looking to maintain or improve your health or seeking holistic fertility support.

I started seeing Renee over a year ago for acupuncture and then decided to work with her for functional medicine as well. As a woman in my mid-40s, I started to notice hormonal changes that were having a dimming effect on my quality of life. Working with Renee consistently has helped me to navigate things naturally and restore more balance to my life. I recommend her to friends who are looking for the same kind of support!

Its been about a year of accupuncture treatments with Renee. I was having terrible periods and severe cramping that lasted days at a time. Ibuprofen wouldnt help and I was miserable. After my gynecologist wanted to put me on birth control to help alleviate symptoms, I decided to look for something else as I did not want to be on birth control. I didnt want something to just mask the symptoms. I wanted to fix my issues. Renee recommended a hormone test which gave us lot of answers and insight as to what was going on. She recommended supplements to help balance my hormones. Its been a few months of consistently taking the supplements and Ive had minimal cramping at the start of my last 3 cycles. My excruciating pain and heatpads are gone! I feel great thanks to Renee!

I have been going to Renee for over two years now while dealing with infertility issues, in conjunction with failed IUIs, to a natural approach with an integrative fertility specialist, to IVF. Having her on my care team has been such a blessing in so many ways. Not only has it helped relieve the stress of battling infertility, but Renee has been an educator and advocate for me throughout the process. I am happy to share that we are now expecting our first child, and Renee played a huge part in that. Thank you, Renee!!! I am incredibly grateful. 10/10 recommend Cultivate.

I came to Renee after over a year without a cycle. She has helped me get my regular cycle back and guided me on living a balanced holistic life that helps me feel my best! I recommend Cultivate to everyone on a hormone balancing or fertility journey

From trying to conceive to inducing labor, I would never do pregnancy without Renee.I first came to Renee with irregular cycles after weaning from breastfeeding, and she helped regulate my cycles, normalize hormone levels, and relax my nervous system within a few months.When it came time to start my fertility treatments for baby number two, she made the extra effort to fit me into her schedule multiple times during the week of my procedures, which helped make all the difference in successfully getting pregnant again!Throughout pregnancy, I continued receiving regular acupuncture treatments, and she had advice and cures for every new symptom that arose along the way.As my due date grew near, she knew just how to set me up for a healthy and fast delivery. After two late-pregnancy treatments with Renee, baby came naturally right on her due date and labor only took 1 hour.Not only is she professional, warm, and knowledgeable, but she also takes the time to truly listen to concerns and offers comforting advice along with effective medical treatment. If you’re looking for a fertility / prenatal acupuncturist, stop looking — you’ve found the best!

Dr. Renee is a hidden gem that I am grateful to have discovered. I am convinced that any health ailment she can resolve. Dr. Renee is both gentle and knowledgeable, kind and encouraging, a listener and an advocate.I began receiving services in my third trimester of pregnancy. I’m almost certain Dr. Renee is part of the reason my pregnancy was able to go full term (literally my baby was born one day before the due date) courtesy of both acupuncture and the nutritional recommendations that I now have for a lifetime. I’m also certain that I did not have to be induced because of Dr. Renee’s pressure point naturally inducing instructions.When you receive services at Cultivate Nashville, you are not just getting acupuncture, you’re receiving holistic care that is both nurturing and empowering. You are receiving wellness defined. If you’re thinking about it, please make an appointment. If you’re not thinking about it, well you should be!Dr. Renee, my deepest gratitude for you, always.

I sought out Dr. Renee when I was 39 weeks pregnant and wanted to try everything to naturally induce my labor. All it took were two visits and labor started! Dr. Renee was extremely thoughtful and asked me a lot of questions about my pregnancy before treating me. I am so grateful to her for helping me get labor going!

I started seeing Renee in 2020 for Endometriosis and hormonal imbalances and overall women’s wellness and she has helped me tremendously since then! She is such a sweet soul and has helped me through my health journey every step of the way. She regulated my periods and I was able to get pregnant on the first try! She helped me throughout my entire pregnancy and soon to be postpartum. I don’t know what I would’ve done without her. Thank you Renee for being an amazing person and acupuncturist! I will forever be thankful for you!

Renee is incredible! I started going to her back in July 2022, with a painful recurring condition that I had for 2 years that I thought I may have to just maintain and live with for the rest of my life after not finding any long-term resolution from other doctors or medicine. I had never done acupuncture but was willing to give anything a try at this point. Renee took time to listen and understand my situation, and with her treatment plan Ive now experienced full recovery!! This has felt like a miracle, and I cant recommend her enough.

Truly changed my life!!! I have been seeing Renee for a little over a year now. I was diagnosed with PCOS by my gynecologist and never had a regular period for about 8 years. I had been on birth control most of my life and was ready to completely come off of it. I started seeing Renee for shoulder pain about a year ago, but as we got to talking, she educated me on the importance of having a regular cycle. We talked a lot about my options and I knew I was ready to regulate my hormones. Once I finally got off hormonal birth control, Renee worked with me very diligently to get me on a 28-35 day cycle. After a couple of months of treatment, Im proud to say I am officially on a 28 day cycle! I cant recommend Renee enough. This has been a 5+ year health journey for me and Im so happy I found Cultivate. Renee educated me on herbs, seed cycling, food irritations, and so much more. I now feel more myself and healthier than ever. THANK YOU Renee :)

Been going to Renee and now Alex for both babies! I swear it has helped me conceive if not relax, going through fertility treatments. Renee is super knowledgeable and also has great suggestions. The office is super clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

After struggling for a year to get pregnant, I decided to try acupuncture for fertility. After only two sessions with Renee I got pregnant. I’ve continued seeing her through out my pregnancy and look forward to each appointment. I leave feeling energized yet relaxed and am so grateful for her and her knowledge!

I first saw Renee about a year ago, after I had been trying to get pregnant for 8 months. She quickly made me feel super comfortable, and every session with her gave me hope that one day it would be our turn. She listens to you, makes realistic plans, and even checks on you between appointments! My acupuncture sessions felt more like much needed therapy sessions because she would hear me out, tell me what we would work on that day, and then I would relax during my needle treatment. I am happy to say that I am now 23 weeks pregnant, and I know Renee had a big part in the process! I highly recommend you give acupuncture a try, and you wont find a better person than Renee at Cultivate!

I had such an amazing and life changing experience with Renee. My pregnancy struggles started after I had my first child in November 2017. My husband and I tried for a second child when our first born was 1 years old. After trying for several months we got pregnant but soon after we had our first miscarriage. Within the next 2 years we had 2 more early stage miscarriages. I was mentally and physically struggling with the loss that my body had been going through and started to research other avenues. I had several friends recommend acupuncture in the past but I didnt take it very serious but after all this loss I started to open my mind to other options. I had a friend recommend an acupuncturist that was over 6 months waiting list so I started to do some research and found Renee. I really love that Renee is a one woman show. I feel like when Im in her office that its very private and personal. I am able to relax in her office and she gives me her full attention. She really listens to me and doesnt put out any judgement but just gives excellent suggestions and recommendations. I consider myself to have a very healthy lifestyle but my my body wasnt at the stage it needed to be to get pregnant. I took in all Renees recommendations and made some changes to my lifestyle and 4 weeks later I was pregnant and this one stuck. I continued to see Renee throughout my entire pregnancy and on August 4, 2021 we delivered a healthy baby boy. I feel so blessed that Renee has been with me throughout my entire pregnancy journey and has given me all the health pre pregnancy, pregnancy, and post pregnancy tips to prepare my body to bring this beautiful baby into the world.

I started seeing Renee in early December and since, I have seen the biggest difference in myself. Renee is patient and calm and listens to everything you say and feel. My appointment with her always starts with how are you feeling, tell me whats going on. I highly recommend Renee to anyone who is looking for acupuncture in Nashville whether treatment includes fertility, blood pressure, anxiety, etc. I have been seeing her weekly and can say my blood pressure levels are down, my anxiety is controllable with many other added benefits. She has guided me on what foods I should be eating, and how to overall just take care of my body. With all of her advice, it has truly added benefit to my life. I will continue seeing her until she tells me I cant :)

After trying for almost a year and after 2 chemical pregnancies, acupuncture was the missing link on my fertility journey. When I started my sessions I was already hopeless. Dr. Renee was so optimistic since day 1, believing I could pregnant that my body just needed some support to go back to balance. She was a pivotal point on my journey, her knowledge, her unconditional support and optimism kept my hopes high. I’m so grateful for her. After 5 months of consistent care I got pregnant!!! I was in disbelief! Today I have a healthy 5 month old and am still committed tomy pospartum recovery with the support of Cultivate! Thank you Dr. Renee!!!! I’m SO SO grateful for you.

Dr. Renee Fudge was so supportive before and during my pregnancy. After years of fertility struggles and feeling like just another patient in the medical environment, I looked forward to every appointment knowing I would talk with someone who cared and be given personal advice and rest during acupuncture treatment.

Renee is amazing! I was skeptical about acupuncture working, but every time I went in for a treatment I felt better. Renee takes the time to listen to the problems you are having and takes time to explain what she will do / what you can do at home as well to help. Also, follow Cultivate on instagram! Renee always has amazing advice on eating with the seasons.

I started seeing Renee when I learned I was pregnant. I had extreme perinatal depression and was desperately seeking help. Renee took great care of me and helped me get through it and get better. I also had some PTSD from a past trauma that surfaced during my treatment and she helped my body and soul heal. My life is certainly better having been treated by Renee and I am grateful to feel on the other side of both of those struggles. I would highly recommend seeking her out if you are struggling with health and/or mental health issues as she will guide you to wellness!

As a newcomer to acupuncture, I feel so fortunate to have have found Renee and Cultivate! Renee has helped (is teaching) me to understand the causes and effects of my body with her wide reaching base of knowledge and experience. The atmosphere is comfortable and open (Track One is charming!) and I have been grateful for the effects on my mind, body and spirit from her holistic approach.

Highly recommend Cultivate Acupuncture! Renee has done wonders for my overall health. My menstrual cycle has completely changed- no spotting, no cramps, and no pms! I would also recommend for anyone who experiences anxiety, the treatments have really calmed my nervous system. I am so thankful for the care I have received from Cultivate Acupuncture!

I love Cultivate!Every person I’ve interacted with is helpful and friendly!It was a huge jump for me to try acupuncture and I’m beyond thankful I did! I truly believe it’s why I got pregnant after trying for almost two years!

Where do I begin. Rene is a genuine, caring person who truly can and wants to help her clients. She has helped me with more than one issue; she really knows exactly what she is doing. She made the entire experience relaxing and comforting. I have also recommended others to her and was amazed at thier results as were they! I highly recommend Cultivate Acupuncture for your health whether it be anxiety, stress, weight loss, smoking cessation, even psoriasis! Thanks Rene for being a local business I can trust!

To anybody thinking about trying acupuncture but may be hesitant, DO IT! It has truly changed my life. I was that hesitant person who thought how could sticking a bunch of little needles all over my body make me feel better? I started getting acupuncture with Cultivate about two months ago and have already seen major positive changes. I was stressed, tired, moody, and would decline invitations because of it. Since getting acupuncture, my mood has lifted and I am able to deal with my stress better. I dont dwell over the the little things anymore and find find myself saying yes to things I normally wouldnt. Im more open to trying new things and taking chances. My general out look on life has been more up lifted and positive. Renee is professional, knowledgeable, and in tune with the needs of others. She takes care of the overall health. Cultivate has been a wonderful experience and I would recommend Renee to everyone.

I started going to see Renee after my arms started going numb while sleeping. Not only did my numbing go away after my first visit but I overall felt relieved, all the stresses I walked in with were faded! I can not say enough great things about her practice, if your looking for natural healing look no further!

Renee is probably the most amazing woman I have ever met. I came to her because my gynecologist said that I had PCOS and that the only way to help my symptoms was to take medication, but when I came to Renee, she knew exactly how to help me with my issues without having to take the medications that my gynecologist had suggested. I would highly suggest seeing her!

I Love Renee and always look forward to my acupuncture appointments. Ive struggled with chronic neck pain ever since I can remember - I usually treat it with routine chiropractic care, but it has been providing limited relief over the past year. I decided to try acupuncture (which I had generally avoided because, well, who likes needles) and I feel 100x better (and you can barely feel the needles, if at all). So much better, in fact, that Im basically dropping chiropractic care in favor of acupuncture relief. Renee is very extremely educated in all things Chinese/Oriental medicine and while Ive only experienced the acupuncture and cupping treatments (definitely recommend both), she has helped me add supplements and dietary guidelines for overall health as well. If youre looking for a professional, knowledgeable, holistic, and natural approach to health and wellness, this is it. As long as I live here, theres nowhere else Ill go.

Love Renee and her professional work. I enjoy every experience and find tremendous benefits when I receive treatments. From women’s health to allergies acupuncture has been a true healing modality.

Renee is absolutely wonderful. I look forward to my appointments with her knowing I’m doing the best I can for my body. She is a wealth of knowledge and I always feel rejuvenated when I leave. Thank you Renee!

Renee is the best! Works on our entire family. Professional, compassionate and big heart! We had immediate results. I love seeing my teens become stronger and more confident.

I started going to Renee out of pure curiosity...little did i know how much her treatments would impact my entire life. I learned that even the smallest, insignificant symptom tells a story of whats going on inside of you. As a massage therapist i have always preached to my clients to listen to your body and not ignore your pains or discomforts. Acupuncture takes it even deeper and every time i go i learn more and more...i always leave with a greater respect for the human body. And with her background in pharmaceuticals, she will better understand your current situation and set even clearer goals for your health and well-being. Quite frankly, her intelligence blows me away.Currently we are working hard on my sleep issues, which in perspective, is not a big deal. I still get the feeling of a nights rest and have energy for the day. However, waking up every night between 2 and 4 a.m is super annoying, and as you guessed, means something is out of balance in my body. So i am taking care of it now before it really becomes a larger issue (like my mom who cant even produce those sleep hormones any more) . So just because something is or may be genetic doesnt mean you have to experience it too.My sleep has improved dramatically since I have started going and still have some work to do. So, if youre curious about going, expect to be patient, trust your body and let it do its thing.All in all, I feel as though I can never ever live without her and you will too.

It worked! Renee is knowledgeable and takes her time with her patients to share relevant lifestyle and supplements customized to your unique needs.

Wonderful women, beautiful place.Ive only just started my healing journey with her and I feel so cared for. She is super informative and supportive. Love Love Love this establishment ❤️

Renee was great! She really listens to your concerns and targets your therapy to them.

Renee was very informative very much enjoyed the services that she provided.
