The Infertility Cure: The Ancient Chinese Wellness Program for Getting Pregnant and Having Healthy Babies
by Randine Lewis, Ph.D.
320 pages
Groundbreaking alternative approach to treating infertility using traditional Chinese medicine-on its own or to optimize the latest Western-based reproductive technology.
Aggressive infertility treatments used widely in the United States have about a 20 percent success rate. A recent study shows that when combined with traditional Chinese medicine, the odds of conception and healthy pregnancy through in vitro fertilization increase by 50 percent. Dr. Randine Lewis's The Infertility Cure is the first book to present an alternative approach to infertility that incorporates traditional Chinese medicine-a simple regimen of acupressure, diet, and Chinese herbs that can dramatically increase your chance of getting pregnant.
At her Houston clinic, Dr. Lewis has had an astonishing 75 percent success rate in helping women become pregnant with the help of traditional Chinese medicine. With The Infertility Cure, Lewis helps women understand infertility and outlines effective, natural ways to conceive. Based on techniques and remedies drawn from traditional Chinese medicine, Lewis's program shows you how to improve your overall health and well-being, strengthen the organs and systems vital to reproduction, heal specific conditions that may affect your fertility, and even support Western-based reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization and hormone therapy.
The first step is an extensive health questionnaire that determines each woman's individual diagnostic category. Next, a combination of diet, acupressure, and Chinese herbs brings the body back into balance and creates a welcoming physical and emotional environment for a healthy pregnancy. All of Dr. Lewis's recommendations are techniques that you can easily do yourself or with the help of a partner.
Dr. Lewis turned to traditional Chinese medicine for her own fertility problems after a battery of invasive methods to conceive proved unsuccessful-she not only got pregnant easily with the help of traditional Chinese medicine, but left medical school and spent the next two years immersed in the study of Chinese medicine, working at China's premiere hospital for reproductive health and treating hundreds of women struggling with infertility.
Drawing on Dr. Lewis's passion and expertise, The Infertility Cure offers a safe and proven approach that will give women hope as well as what they desire most-a healthy baby.
