Fertility Enhancement Program: Homeopathy & TCM – a potent
mix!
Infertility is defined as the inability to
conceive after 12 months of trying. Being unable to conceive a child can be heartbreaking for a couple and
has broken more than a few good marriages. Homeopathy and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) are a powerful
combination that offers hope to the childless couple by establishing equilibrium within the
body.
The empirical evidence for the benefit of acupuncture and TCM in
conception problems can be found in Chinese medical literature dating back over 2000 years. Homeopathy and TCM
improve the chances of becoming pregnant as they enhance the function of the entire body. They provide a key to
unlocking unlimited healing potential in each person I treat. This process is beneficial for all, but especially
important for people struggling with infertility as it provides an overall health boost which in turn boosts
reproductive health.
It is important to note that my treatment
does not exclude mainstream medical ideas and techniques; In my care it is likely that both partners will be
required to go for assessments with a gynae, urologist or specialist technician to clarify the underlying
condition and to provide benchmarks against which to measure progress of the treatment - There are
overwhelming benefits to making use of some of the technologies that exist for our own
purposes!
And even though western medical methods for
treating infertility are complicated, expensive and often degrading and tend to complicate and aggravate
underlying conditions, (and meta-analysis generally indicates a relatively low success rate) - this just
makes alternative methods such as TCM and Homeopathy begin to seem more
attractive.
With even the best of intentions there are
those who will not be successful with this system; indeed there are many couples who could not possibly
achieve conception without medical assistance: in such instances this system can still be used to tone the
uterus and maximize uterine blood flow so that medical fertility
treatments can be more effective. It can also minimize the undesired side effects and accumulated toxicity
from invasive procedures and drug therapies. Indeed, it is well established via the benchmark double-blind
type study that acupuncture, used accurately, significantly enhances the success rate of standard IVF
procedures. Many couples have used my treatment over the years in this way.
Homeopathy and TCM treat infertility on the
basis of a careful differential diagnosis to resolve underlying patterns of disharmony. TCM addresses either
a "deficient" condition that leads to poor nourishment of the body and organs or an "excess" condition that
obstructs the organs and meridians (energy channels). Homeopathic care endeavours to identify the issues in
the patient’s constitution, environment and lifestyle, the so called “obstacles to cure” and, through
medication and/or advice, assist the patient to change harmful patterns of behaviour and
response.
Your treatment is always individualized. In
addition to acupuncture and medication, lifestyle changes are crucial-proper diet, stress reduction and
regular exercise need to accompany treatment. Everything you do to better your chances will be repaid in
full!
