Every culture has had its own tradition of healing and complementary therapy to alter and balance the flow of body energy. People feel better physically and emotionally, and anxiety, anger and fear are reduced. This may be sufficient to tip the scales for conception to occur. During the last few decades treatments which originated on one continent are now commonly used throughout the world, for example homoeopathy originated in Germany and now the main centre is India. Perhaps, with the wide choice available, the greatest difficulty is deciding which therapy to use.
Diagnosis consists of assessing the person's pulse and observing their posture and energy.
Treatment utilises either massage, acupuncture, crystals or heat applied at points along the meridians to alter and balance the flow of energy. The potency of the treatment is increased by altering food intake, reducing emotional tension and balancing heat and cold. Acupuncture is often used alone but the effect is enhanced when combined with Chinese herbs. Treatment regulates the cycle, boosts ovulation and improves fertility, vitality and well-being. It may also be used in conjunction with assisted conception to reduce stress and help recovery from the effects of drugs or surgery.
