Acupuncture for Fertility
Infertility - Inability to conceive, despite frequent and unprotected intercourse for at least a year. This is a condition of the reproductive system that prevents the conception of children. It affects approximately 10-15% of couples throughout the western countries. The diagnosis of infertility is usually given to couples who have been attempting to conceive for at least 1 year without success.
Treatment depends on various factors such as underlying cause, couple's age and health. Also, various assisted conception techniques are available.
First of all, it is crucial to check with your GP what's wrong with both of partners and what is the main reason of infertility. Before going for the invasive medical treatment with chemical drugs which have always lots of unpleasant side effects, why not to have the natural, holistic treatment such as reflexology or acupuncture or both combined. They usually give very good results.
While reflexology, acupuncture, Reiki, lymphatic drainage give immediately sense of deep relaxation, they open the gates for fertility as well.
