Infertility is the inability to conceive after a year of unprotected intercourse in women under 35, or after six months in women over 35, or the inability to carry a pregnancy to term. Couples who have known bariiers to feritlity, such as endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome, male factor infertility, irregular cycles etc., do not need to sit out the traditional "waiting period" to seek expert care for infertility. Herbs have been used to promote infertility for thousands of years and can be considered to be a form of natual fertility medication. It is especailly helpful if there is a scaring of the fallopian tubes, irregular menses, abnormal cells in the reproductive tract, or "unexplained" infertility. It may take several months for the full effect of this herb to come on and pregnancy may not occur until you have used it for a year or two. Men and Women with infertility would be encourage to try acupuncture in addition to their standard medical treatment aasd well.

The Chinese healing art of acupuncture originates from China 2500 years ago. Now it has become a complete medical and care system using which to encourage the body to promote natural healing and improve function. This approach is proven to be an effective way to maintain good health and to resolve new or lingering health concerns. Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine and sterilized needles into specific points along the meridian channels to achieve a therapeutic effect. Each treatment is tailored which means different Acu-points will be chosen for patients’ benefit. It will stimulate and regulate the flow of the vital Qi (energy) of the body which is, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, the universal force of keeping the balance of the system and restore health. From western medicine point of view, through needling, acupuncture can stimulate the nerve system and activate “endorphin” in our system so as to alter various biochemical and physiological conditions to relieve pain and to ease symptoms. The aim of acupuncture is to correct imbalance of the Qi and to recover physical, emotional and spiritual equilibrium.

Electro-acupuncture is the term used to refer to the application of a pulsating electrical current to acupuncture needles, or even without needles, to acupuncture points on the body. This Oriental medicine technique was developed in China in the 1930's, and though it is a fairly recent development in the ancient method of acupuncture, the idea behind it corresponds directly with long-held beliefs. Acupuncture operates on the idea that a person's qi, or life force, runs through body along certain meridians, and that specific points on the body correspond with these meridians. When these points are ‘activated' or stimulated by touch, specific complaints of chronic pain or illnesses can be alleviated. Using a gentle electrical current in conjunction with, or instead of, acupuncture needles, is an alternative way to stimulate the point and enhance the qi.

Acupuncture is a therapeutic practice that originated in China thousands of years ago. In western medicine, the goal is often to diagnose disease and treat it specifically; in acupuncture, the goal is to strengthen the entire mind and body, supporting our inherent resilience and resistance to disease. According to traditional Chinese philosophy, our health is dependent on the body’s motivating energy (Qi, pronounced ‘chee’) moving in a smooth and balanced way through a series of channels (meridians) beneath the skin that connect the interior and exterior of the body, and the internal systems to each other. Qi consists of equal and opposite qualities – Yin and Yang. When Qi becomes blocked or disrupted, illness can result. Acupuncture aims to bring all systems into balance by inserting fine needles into the meridians. It can also be used to complement conventional medicine. What can acupuncture treat? Acupuncture has been used to treat a range of conditions including: *       Anxiety and depression. *       Arthritis and rheumatism. *       Asthma. *       High blood pressure. *       Menstrual cramps. *       Skin problems. *       Pain relief in childbirth. *       Addiction – smoking, alcohol and drugs. What happens during an acupuncture session? If it is your first session, the acupuncturist will assess your general health to ensure that you receive the most effective treatment.

Acupuncture helps people feel right in themselves, allowing them to return to full health and live their life fully. Acupuncture is able to work wonders with pain relief and discomfort of stiff and tight muscles, joint tenderness and pain. It speeds up the healing process by increasing the flow of qi and blood into the affected area helping to reduce inflammation and swelling of the injured area. Lack of energy is one of the main complaints that patients seeking acupuncture mention. According to Oriental medicine, the cold months of winter are the perfect time to recharge your battery and generate vital energy – qi - in order to live, look, and feel your best.
