Alternative therapies for TTC

**Heaven** · November 19th, 2007, 09:06 AM

Can't find any threads on this. Was wondering has anyone tried alternative therapies while TTC such as reflexology, accupuncture, aromatherapy, reiki, etc. Did they work and how? Any recommendations. Was thinking of trying something to help my body get back on track as it's a bit crazy after coming off the pill.

Hi SaraJane,

My hairdresser gave me a phone number of a woman who does hypnotherapy and counselling for natural fertility. Her sister went there after 2 years of trying and got pregnant a few months later. The doctors told her she basically had no hope apart from IVF. Her website is naturalstresstherapy.com.au if you want to have a look. Hope it helps

SaraJane - i used accupuncture in conjunction with chinese medicine (same practitioner), I truly beleive that this is what helped me conceive this time round. I initially started using it to overcome stress, after a few months, i suggested i wanted to maybe ttc and the first month she put me on some herbs to balance out my hormones and strengthen my uterus and the second month was to help conceive, it was that second month that we fell. I also think it has a lot to do with your mind, whether or not it works, you have to have some kind of belief in it. Unfortunately she is down in Melbourne, but am sure you would be able to find somewhere in your area by looking on the net.

good luck and let us know what you decide to do and how it goes.
