ACUPUNCTURE & CHINESE HERBS
Gillian Price MBAcC MRCHM
Acupuncture
Traditional Chinese acupuncture is an holistic health system that
addresses the root cause of a problem, treating the whole person
rather than just the symptoms.
Acupuncture enhances the functioning of the body’s natural
processes to help create optimum health and hormone levels prior to
and during the times you are trying to conceive. It reduces the affects
of stress and has also been shown to improve the IVF success rate.
Chinese Herbs
More and more women and men are turning to Chinese herbs for
help with fertility issues.
Recent research demonstrates that using Chinese herbal medicine
results in higher success rates of pregnancy, with no patient side
effects and a reduction in the category of patients conventionally
classified as having unexplained infertility.
It appears to have a positive effect on ovarian follicle size,
endometrium thickness, FSH level, progesterone levels and corpus
luteum size and vascularity.
Chinese herbs can also be helpful for polycystic ovary syndrome,
habitual miscarriage, amenorrhoea, irregular menstrual cycle, stress
reduction and for men with low sperm count or motility.
Together acupuncture and Chinese herbs are a powerful
combination for enhancing fertility.
