Question by britneh: Anyone had experience with acupuncture and homeopathy with fertility issues?
I have had two treatments of acupuncture in my quest for a baby. I have low progestrone and random cycles so this was suggested. The homeopath took a sample of my hair to test and came back to me saying my left ovary functions to 90% capacity and right ovary to only 10% capacity. This has made me sad and not good about my chances. I wish i could leave well alone and leave it up to gods way instead of trying to find answers and solutions because often i end up feeling disappointed and like its never going to happen. They also said that I need to get more blood flow to my uterus. Anyone had any experience with homeopathy/acupuncture and can suggest how much i should take on board from them/??? Many thanks x x

i am planning to take this road too. and i’m hoping it would be favorable. i know how you’re feeling but i guess we really do need to take tests and try to cover everything we can. maybe God’s just making us ready to be moms.
keep your chin up, no matter how hard it is.

Answer by ?
Hi, I am a doctor of chiropractic. I can tell you from personal experience that I have had two patient who had spent thousands of dollars at fertility clinics with no results. Then they came to me, I corrected a misalignment in their lower back which was impinging the nerves that allowed their reproductive organs to work properly and they were able to conceive. As a doctor of chiropractic I do not treat infertility, all I treat are vertebra that are out of alignment. When I do that the body works the way it was designed to work. This actually happens quite frequently in chiropractic offices.

The Insiders Guide to Acupuncture – How to Cure Your Chronic Pain with Acupuncture

If you associate acupuncture with needles, pain and weird alternative medicine then you are horribly misinformed about the benefits of the world’s oldest form of medicinal treatment.

Acupuncture has been used for over 5,000 years treating ailments ranging from back pain, insomnia, and migraines and more recently to help with weight loss, quitting smoking and stress. Acupuncture is safe, pain free and can help you feel better.

If you are searching for a remedy and modern medicine hasn’t been able to provide relief, then it’s time you started learning how acupuncture can help you feel your best. Don’t be a skeptic, Acupuncture For Cynics can teach you everything you need to know to feel safe and comforted and make an informed decision about your health.

Don’t look at me like I’m crazy or trying to sell you magic beans or something. Acupuncture might seem hokey if you don’t fully understand how it works, but if are stuck in a corner, with no other option left, acupuncture might be the savior you’ve been praying for. I know it was for me.

Ever since I was a little kid, I’ve felt nauseous when I travel. I could never sit backwards on the bus or read during a car ride. Whenever I flew, during takeoff and landing I needed to hang my head between my knees to prevent my nausea from completely overtaking my body. I avoided traveling at all costs, not wanting to put myself in a situation where I was unable to control my bodily functions.

One of my favorite things about life is that it never seems to let me relax and live in the comfortable world that I’d prefer, and, true to form, as I got older I found myself in a job that required me to fly.

I didn’t want to be handcuffed by my nausea, so I accepted the job and hoped I would be able to find a cure for my uncomfortable condition.

My nausea, though, was uncontrollable. I went to see doctors and specialists and tried everything from pills to patches to help me fly easier. Of course, nothing provided me with the relief that I needed.

As I grew in my job, the necessity to fly comfortably not only grew worse, but so did the need to read, prepare and work on the plane as well. I was desperate to find a cure, so I tried everything I could think of.

A co-worker first explained to me the benefits of acupuncture. She told me how her mother had acupuncture done to relieve her back pain and said that it was something of a miracle cure. She said that after her mother went to just a couple treatments, she felt a lot better.

This co-worker talked about acupuncture every single day and was convinced that it was the cure I was searching for. The more she talked about it, the less interested I was in trying it. This co-worker described the process as a ritual and she constantly used words like miracle, wonder, and life-altering experience. She made it seem even more hokey than I had originally thought.

The medicinal value of acupuncture was overshadowed by the impression I got from her that acupuncture was performed in an environment that more resembled a palm reader’s shop than a doctor’s office. I was a man of science and ritual treatments were not anything I would even consider.

Acupuncture Can Help With Allergies

How does acupuncture treat the symptoms of seasonal allergies? This can be done locally or generally. Many allergy symptoms are located above the neck, that is, in the head. This is an indication that energy is not flowing smoothly from the head into the rest of the body, and vice versa. All the yang meridians flow from the head down to the feet, or from the hands up to the head. In the course of local treatment, small, sterile needles are placed directly on points where symptoms are especially active – like the head or side of the nose – allowing the “congested” energy to free up and dissipate. Your local Asheville NC acupuncture practitioner can open those channels in the neck and shoulders and allow the energy to flow.

Acupuncture is an effective, safe and natural aid in the fight against seasonal allergies. It helps to relieve symptoms such as itchy/watery eyes, congestion, headaches and fatigue, and it brings the body into balance so that it can better defend itself against allergens. With the wild winter we’ve had this year, the North Carolina mountains are sure to have a vibrantly beautiful spring. All that winter precipitation will give way to a bounty of thriving flora when the warmer months finally arrive. This is great news for those who love spring, but a catch-22 for those who suffer from seasonal allergies. The good news is that there is natural relief for allergy sufferers- and that relief need not be temporary.

Aside from receiving acupuncture, Asheville NC or wherever you know of a practitioner, there are some other natural approaches to boosting the immune system and being rid of allergies. These are easy steps to take that don’t cost a lot of money or effort. In other words, nearly anyone can…

• try a homeopathic allergy remedy. Homeopathic medicine works by matching the vibration of your symptoms to a particular remedy. When the vibrations match, they cancel the symptoms out and improve overall health.
• take a regular multivitamin/mineral supplement year round.
• eat local, seasonal foods and more raw foods than you usually would, especially in the warmer months.
• Eat local honey and bee pollen- test the pollen first by having a tiny granule to make sure you don’t have a reaction. The local honey and bee pollen is made from pollen of local flowers, so when you’re exposed to that later, your immune system will not see it as an invader and try to attack it, causing allergy symptoms.

Your Asheville acupuncture specialist will address the root causes of your allergies by doing a complete inventory and assessment of your whole self. Acupuncturists treat very specifically and individually, making sure the underlying cause of allergies are cleared. This is the main benefit of acupuncture: bringing a person into balance so that the body may heal itself of physical, mental and emotional ailments – which is not incomprehensible when you think about how they’re all interrelated aspects of the self. When the body is fully in balance, symptoms disappear and health is restored.

It has recently come to my attention from a chiropractor that I need to see an acupuncturist. My question is do they really help the headaches as they say it does? I have had headaches for over 6 years now and have been on several different medications, and have tried numerous ways of managing the pain homeopathic-ally. I have tried traction, chiropractics, and muscle relaxants too name a few. So again will acupuncture really help with my headaches that I am getting everyday?
