Each patient is assessed and recommended a personalised treatment plan based on their unique fertility conditions. This means that different patients will require different treatments with varying priorities.
Generally, with patients that require more care or have chronic stress or inflammation in their body, a combination of TCM herbal medication, acupuncture, and tech-enhanced therapies like Electro-Lymphatic Therapy (ELT) and Negative Ion Therapy is able to provide faster results.
While treatments will be customised to your body constitution, what you can expect in a typical week of treatment:
- Consultation with a physician who will assess the condition and prescribe Chinese herbs (20 min)
- Acupuncture or moxibustion treatment (as required) (> 30 min)
- Electro-Lymphatic Therapy (ELT) (1 hour)
- Negative Ion Therapy (15 – 20 min)
TCM and technology work synergistically for better results
TCM herbs and acupuncture treatment can help to improve blood circulation and correct underlying body imbalances. However, when there is excessive stress in the body or poor cell metabolism, the effects of TCM treatment may be slower.
In patients with chronic stress and poor blood and lymphatic circulation, TCM treatment alone may not be able to correct all these body imbalances at the same time (or may take much longer). As such, we encourage patients to do ELT concurrently to help improve blood and lymphatic circulation in the body while we correct other underlying imbalances with traditional TCM therapies. This will allow patients to experience faster and more significant improvements.
Similarly, in patients experiencing oxidative stress (due to age, long working hours, or moisture in the groin), the stress-relieving benefits of traditional therapies may take longer to take effect. When combined with Negative Ion Therapy, which helps to boost cell metabolism and reduce oxidative stress, patients are more likely to experience faster and longer-lasting benefits of traditional therapies.
In general, we encourage fertility patients who have not had great or long-lasting improvements with traditional therapies alone to try our tech-enhanced therapies.
