The timing of fertility..

I was reading a post from a well-known herbalist about his experience working at an ART clinic on the east coast. He found that most of the treatments were not effective. He had to quit due to the nature of the roller coaster. He is an expert Chinese herbalist. 

As I see many fertility clients, this got me thinking. Fertility has it's own timing. That kind of setting sets people up for failure. Many people traveled there, leveraging their finances, leaving their lives to pursue having a child. That stress in itself can lead to infertility. 

Babies have their own timing and will, as do our bodies. Getting treatments at our clinic, may take a few weeks, may takes years (sorry). Western medicine can be a great adjunct, but we are potentially, unwinding years of stress and imbalances. Some damage from BC. or childhood trauma, or other hormonal imbalances can take time.  Making acupuncture and other lifestyle changes are key. You may have to slow down, some women change careers. 

For some, Infertility is a wake up call. His post just made me think, how lovely and more effective it is to come to a relaxing space, and get treatments without upending your entire life. The journey of fertile/ infertility will certainly lead you down a path of change, learning about your body, yourself, you may see places in your life that aren't working, that are stuck, as we get your qi and blood flowing. It's our honor to be there with you, on the path to unwinding, the ups and downs, leading you to the joy that is really wrapped in fertility.
