Complementary and alternative medicine includes therapies from very diverse historical
and cultural backgrounds; however they do share a common view of health and wellness
and tend to be 'holistic', i.e. they treat the whole person, not just the symptoms
of a disease. It is believed that wellness comes from a balance between the body,
mind and the environment. Each person is treated as a unique individual who has his
or her own particular make-
Complementary therapies can; boost the immune system, help eliminate toxins, help
relieve pain, improve circulation, improve sleep patterns, increase energy levels,
induce deep relaxation, reduce stress and tension, restore balance to body systems.
Complementary
therapies can be used to target a specific physical, mental, emotional or spiritual
problem, or as a preventative measure or purely for relaxation so whether you have
a specific health problem or you just want to increase your feeling of well-
When women want to get pregnant, they'll try (almost) anything in order to achieve their goal. So can Holistic medicine really help you conceive?
The alternative options
Acupuncture
The latest research on acupuncture is encouraging – at least for couples going through in vitro fertilisation (IVF). According to recent studies, women who had acupuncture during fertility treatment were more likely to get pregnant.
In China, acupuncture is widely believed to unblock the flow of chi (energy) in the

Reflexology
There's anecdotal evidence to suggest that reflexology helps women conceive. Reflexes on the feet correspond to the endocrine glands and parts of the body. Treatments can stimulate these, bringing hormones into balance and helping the reproductive organs to work more efficiently.
Homeopathy
It’s a well kept secret that homeopathy improves fertility. Homeopaths treat couples with fertility issues to enhance their chances of conception. Remedies can be prescribed to establish regular menstrual cycles, alleviate menstrual problems and to stimulate ovulation or sperm production. There is anecdotal evidence that homeopathic treatment before IVF and other assisted conception methods raises the chance of success.
Don't worry, be happy
Failing to conceive is very stressful... and being stressed can reduce your chances of conceiving. It's easy to get trapped in this vicious circle, and although the only tangible benefit of some complementary therapies may be that they promote relaxation, the importance of this shouldn't be ignored.
Nurturing therapies such as holistic massage, aromatherapy and reiki make women feel less anxious about life in general. Plus, whether you're having fertility treatment or not, the knowledge that you're doing something boost your body and soul, can only be uplifting.
As long as you keep an open mind, accept that there are no guarantees that it will work, and it's not hurting you – or your bank balance – there's no harm in trying!
