Natural Fertility Healthcare
The Natural Fertility Healthcare programme teaches you to understand and cooperate with your fertility cycles, through observing body signs such as cervical mucus, basal body temperature and combining this knowledge with your personal biorhythmic lunar cycle. Where there is a fertility problem, a holistic approach is used to explore its origins and natural therapies used to assist healing and normal reproductive functioning.
The programme is effective in cases of unexplained infertility as well as for specific conditions such as endometriosis, uterine fibroids, polycystic ovarian disease, ovarian cysts, hormonal imbalances, hostile cervical mucus and factors affecting male fertility.
A crucial part of the programme involves 3-4 month detoxification period before any conception attempt, this is commonly called pre-conception health care and can set the age clock of parents back several years and lessen the risk of birth defects. It has also been documented that when naturopathic treatment and fertility awareness combined with an IVF conception attempt there is a higher chance of success.
The programme consists of:
- 1. A personal consultation and a Natural Fertility Management Conception Kit (optional) containing a CD, thermometer and comprehensive printed material including a copy of “Natural Fertility” by Francesca Naish.
These cover the following topics:
- Instruction in optimising fertility timing at mid-cycle through observation of body symptoms (mucus observation and temperature) with monthly cycle charts to record.
- Instruction in the use of the bio-rhythmic lunar cycle, with individual computer calculated charts showing these potentially fertile times for the next 5 years
- Information on how to combine lunar and hormonal cycles to prepare for and make best use of your fertile times, with a personal relaxation/suggestion CD for stress control
2. Natural therapies including herbal medicine, diet & lifestyle advice as preparation for healthy conception and pregnancy
3. Referrals to acupuncture and/or mind-body practitioners are available. Acupuncture assists with blood flow to the reproductive organs and improves fertility overall, while mind/body practitioners assist the understanding and processing of issues and stresses of fertility problems
