At Fertility Solutions Sunshine Coast and Bundaberg, we take a holistic approach to individuals and couples care. This includes considering not just the physical side of the person but also the emotional and spiritual sides. We embrace traditional medicine as a complement to western medical approaches to preconceptual care and fertility treatment. There is a strong body of evidence which supports the use of complementary therapies in conjunction with fertility treatments to induce relaxation and reduce emotional and physical stresses.

The team at Fertility Solutions has researched local complementary therapists who have a special interest in fertility and want to work with us to help you optimize your health, your response to treatment, your chances of a successful pregnancy and the health of your baby.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and acupuncture can be used alongside cutting edge Western reproductive medicine to increase the chances of conception.  The two disciplines complement each other exceedingly well.  TCM focuses on restoring health and balance to the body and can assist Western medicine to work more effectively.

Having a baby is one of the most important events in an adult’s life, though often an unconscious one.  We do very little to prepare our bodies for conception in order to allow the fetus the best possible chance in life. There are many clinical studies and scientific evidence showing the benefits of preconception care and nutrient supplementation prior to and during pregnancy.
