Many people today are looking for alternative forms of medicine to treat their ailments. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is one such option that has been used in Asia that has been practiced for thousands of years. It’s been used to treat many different diseases, including fertility problems! In this blog post, we will learn more about traditional Chinese Medicine and who can benefit from it!
The holistic approach to healing
TCM is a holistic form of healing. It’s one of the oldest known systems in medical history. It has been used for at least 2,000 years and continues to be an essential part of global health today. TCM focuses on identifying imbalances in your body and restoring balance through natural treatments that combine the use of herbal remedies, acupuncture, and other methods to heal the body from illness or injury.
Who can Benefit from Traditional Chinese Medicine?
TCM is used to treat several health conditions, including fertility problems. Fertility acupuncture treatment stimulates or drains specific energy points in your body which helps the ovaries and uterus work more effectively. Stimulation usually involves inserting thin needles into these areas, while draining may include using cups over the acupoints to release the fluid and improve circulation.
Traditional Chinese Medicine is a holistic treatment for all types of fertility problems, including polycystic ovaries. Fertility acupuncture therapy can help treat PCOS by regulating hormones that may cause excessive hair growth or thinning scalp hair. Many women with this condition also experience an irregular menstrual cycle, acne and weight gain. Fertility acupuncture can help regulate the hormones that cause these conditions and restore ovulation to conceive a baby.
Why should I use TCM over Western Medicine?
The Chinese believe that the body’s health is dependent on the balance between yin (negative) and yang (positive) forces within it. TCM treatments aim to restore this balance by rebalancing these forces.
Although Western Medicine focuses on physical symptoms, traditional Chinese Medicine instead addresses the root of what is causing the problem or at least a more significant part of it. In addition, Western medicines only address one area and are often not as holistic in their treatment as Traditional Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture is one of the most successful forms of TCM treatment because it can be used to relieve various symptoms without side effects or:
-It is more natural. It does not require the use of drugs or surgery, and many women prefer it because you are using your own body instead of external medicines to heal itself.
-TCM also considers lifestyle, diet, emotional state, and other factors that may affect fertility as well. Fertility acupuncture treatments often include other therapies such as herbs and dietary recommendations.
-You get to use acupuncture points that are used only for fertility which may not be accessible in Western Medicine.
-TCM can also help with the emotional side of infertility where it is often a source of anxiety, stress and depression.”
