What are Holistic Fertility Treatments?
Our approach to holistic fertility centers around a comprehensive evaluation of your health to tailor a treatment plan that addresses not just the symptoms but the root causes of infertility.
Acupuncture is employed to improve circulation to the reproductive organs, thus increasing the chances of egg quality and implantation.
The role of Chinese herbal medicine is to create hormonal equilibrium, essential for regular ovulation and sperm health.
Research underscores the benefits of integrating these traditional practices with Western medical treatments. Studies highlight the improvement in semen quality post-acupuncture, and document the positive impacts of acupuncture on women’s reproductive health. These outcomes illustrate a crucial point: holistic treatments can significantly augment conventional fertility treatments, such as IVF, enhancing their success rates and reducing their side effects.
