Possible help for fertility
I have not used chiropractic at all (for fertility, or otherwise) so I can't validate the claims, but I came across this in an e-newsletter I subscribe to, and I thought I'd pass it on in case people might be interested. Who knows?
"Q - My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for almost a year now, and are getting concerned, despite medical reassurances that there is "nothing wrong". My co-worker got pregnant after seeing you, but I don't see the link between seeing a chiropractor and getting pregnant. Are there other approaches you also use?
A - I am very happy to say that every woman who has seen me in the past 4+ years wanting to become pregnant is now a mother or is expecting! Only 2 of these women combined my approaches with fertility treatments - and the rest became pregnant naturally.
The "link" between chiropractic care and becoming pregnant is the communication system of the body: the nervous system. Your spine and pelvis are designed to protect this vital system, and when there is imbalance in the structures affecting the function of the nerves (called a subluxation), it can affect how your body works. The nerves that control your reproductive organs are largely supplied by the nerves in the low back and pelvic regions. My approach is to correct the subluxations, release tension, and let nature take its course.
It is very simple, but HIGHLY effective.
Everything I do is very individualized, as every person is unique. How YOUR body works is dependant upon your own history, encompassing a lifetime of physical, chemical, emotional and spiritual habits and challenges. As a result, what YOU need to improve function (and conceive) can vary from another person. The basics I look at are physical balance, stress levels, diet & lifestyle, and emotional wellbeing - all areas I address either directly through hands-on techniques, or through other care providers in my practice."
