Non-Medical Approaches to Infertility

From the time you’re a little girl, you’ve dreamed of being a mommy. You’ve always loved the smell and feel of babies, and you’ve waited for the day that you could bring your own little bundle of joy home…but that day hasn’t yet arrived.

Infertility, the inability to conceive a child, often hits you right between the eyes after you’ve professed your readiness to become a mother and although you’ve tried, nothing has happened. You believe you’ve tried everything…but have you?

Many women who have been unable to get pregnant have turned to non-medical, alternative approaches to infertility, and often they meet with success.

For example, have you tried:

  • Dietary changes? Avoid heavy metals like lead, mercury and cadmium that can affect hormone and sperm production. A simple test can determine the heavy metal content in your body and simple dietary changes and/or supplements can free you from them. Excessive alcohol and caffeine also can reduce fertility in women.

  • Stress Reduction/Stress Relaxation Techniques? We live fast-paced lives. Some couples have found meditation, yoga and biofeedback to be helpful in eliminating stress that can prevent pregnancy.

  • Chiropractic? Several recent studies have pointed to a possible link between spinal adjustments and increased fertility in some women. Seems that spinal nerve interference, particularly in the lumbar spine, may affect a woman’s ability to conceive. Once the interference is removed, women may have an increased ability to conceive.

If you have issues with fertility, please feel free to mention it on your next visit.

Dr. Hoffart Asks some important questions of interest to Rocklin residents - Chiropractor Rocklin Dr. Hoffart Asks...

Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Rocklin folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
