FERTILITY
It is estimated that 25% of British couples experience infertility problems, and for nearly a third of the couples the infertility is “unexplained”.This frustrating diagnosis means that, despite thorough investigations, doctors can find no specific problems. The answer becomes one of looking deeper - at lifestyle, stresses and emotional blocks interfering with what should be a natural process. Studies have indicated that “infertile” women who use mind/body techniques have a 42-55% conception rate as compared to 20% not following this protocol. A 1992 study found that women who participate in mind/body therapy experience a 34% conception rate as compared to 20% with InVitro fertilisation alone. Decreased levels of depression, anxiety and anger were also reported.
