Why Fertility Care?

As your baby grows and your body accommodates and prepares for birth, you may experience not just the physical changes that might cause some discomfort along the way, but also emotions that may change as frequently as Calgary’s weather. 

Acupuncture treatment is not solely restricted to fertility benefits. Acupuncture is used to help relieve symptoms of nausea, lower back, and pelvic pain, depression, headaches, sleep irregularities, and many more discomforts during pregnancy. 

Naturopathic medicine recognizes the importance of health during fertility, pregnancy, labor, and birth. Whether it be probiotics to help the baby start to build immunity against ear infections, developing a birth plan including placenta retrieval, or preparing for the big day with induction treatments, Naturopath does it all.

Prenatal massage is a wonderful way to boost wellness. Massage helps to:

• reduce stress for both mother and baby

• ease muscular discomfort including sore neck, back, hips, leg cramps

• enhance sleep

• reduce swelling

• stimulate the release of endorphins (the body’s natural pain killers) and serotonin (chemicals that help balance mood)
