Maternity Reflexology
Pre-conception and ReflexologySometimes, starting a family can be a stressful period in your life. Reflexology can help you at this time, as it gives you a sense of calm and relaxation. It may also help with fertility problems by strengthening the immune system, balancing necessary hormone production, promoting blood circulation and promoting overall good health. Three months prior to starting a family is the ideal time for couples to begin reflexology. It takes this time to produce a healthy sperm and one month to produce a healthy egg. Ideally, you and your partner should receive treatment at the same time and on a regular basis.
IVF and Reflexology
Reflexology can help you and your body prepare for IVF treatment. It is recommended that you receive a course of reflexology in the six weeks leading up to the start of your IVF treatment. However, as the aim of reflexology is to create balance within your body it is recommended that you stop reflexology once you have begun the stimulation part of an IVF cycle.
