The Gaurdian reports of sucess of TCM for Fertility

The U.K.'s Guardian recently ran an article about Dr Xiao-Ping Zhai whose success rate in the treatment of infertile men and women is rocking the world of industrialized medicine. To those of us who practice Chinese medicine, her success rate is not surprising. Dr. Zhai's explanation of how she practices often mirror's my own approach toward patients such as advising that women work with me for at least three months before they might conceive naturally, but that it may longer, depending on her body and using herbs, adjusting the diet, and suggesting lifestyle changes. I've had similar experiences in treating male infertility. When the doctors see improved labs of male patients they have a very hard time accepting that Chinese medical treatment has anything to do with it. Of course, they can't offer any other explanation either.

Check out the Guardian article here.

My Feature in Body + Soul Magazine!

Hi Everyone,

I am featured in the November issue of Martha Stewart’s Body and Soul magazine which is on news stands now!

On page 106 in the Your Health section I am quoted about the use Chinese herbs for the treatment of endometriosis, and suggest that using natural Chinese herbs to sooth and rebalance women’s reproductive energy is healthier then using The Pill to suppress natural menstruation in the treatment of endometriosis.

Be Well,

Research Shows Acupuncture Reduces C-Sections

I just read this article about how acupuncture reduces the rate of cesarean sections. The article states:

Studies have shown that women receiving prebirth acupuncture compared to a control group had:

- An overall 35% reduction in the number of inductions (for women having their first baby this was a 43% reduction)

- A 31% reduction in the epidural rate

- A 32% reduction in emergency caesarean delivery

Acupuncture is also effective for turning breech babies, and pregnancy related sciatica, hip and low back pain and for drug free labor induction.
