Dr D. Arikian – Jean Rudd
A Positive Approach to Pregnancy
Perhaps one of the most thrilling moments in a couple’s life is the culmination of a healthy pregnancy, and when they can hold
their newborn baby for the first time. For many couples, this process does not come easily.
Dr Daoud Arikian uses Cranial Sacral Therapy as well as nutritional supplements and herbs ; helping many couples for whom conception, pregnancy and childbirth has become a long and painful process, to realize their dream at only a fraction of the cost of IVF treatment.
Dr Arikian and Jean Rudd also give support to couples who have been trying without success to have a baby for several years. Married couples are being denied help in starting a family, forcing them to spend thousands of pounds on private treatment.
Conversely, is there anything they should know or do, to increase the likelihood of conception?
For some couples, it’s not always a simple case of just ‘doing it’ in order to make little babies.
In fact, getting pregnant can be much harder than you think. For a healthy fertile couple the normal success rate is only around 15-20%, so it’s not uncommon to take some time to conceive.
Infertility or sub-fertility (when it takes longer than expected to conceive) affects around one in seven couples. The usual definition of infertility is when a couple do not achieve a pregnancy after two years.
Common cases of infertility include:
- Infrequent Ovulation
- Male Fertility Problems
- Blockage of the Tubes
- Endometritis is an inflammation or irritation of the lining of the uterus (the endometrium). It is not the same as endometriosis.
- Endometriosis is a Pelvic inflammatory disease – PID – a general term for infection of the uterus lining, fallopian tubes, or ovaries. Bacteria may enter the body during some surgical or office procedures, such as:
- Childbirth
- Endometrial biopsy
- Insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD)
- Miscarriage
- Therapeutic or elective abortion
- Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) occurs when bacteria move from the vagina or cervix into the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, or pelvis.
Most cases of PID are due to the bacteria that cause Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. These are sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
If you are diagnosed with milder PID, you will usually be given an antibiotic injection or shot, and then sent home with antibiotic pills to take for up to 2 weeks.
The THREE main underlying causes of female infertility problems are:
- Hormonal imbalance
- Physical tensions/ lesions (such as scar tissue) around the reproductive organs which are interfering with the delicate balance needed to allow the womb, ovaries and fallopian tubes to function optimally and achieve a successful pregnancy.
- Stress levels
In all of these situations CranioSacral Therapy is known to be effective in not only rebalancing the body’s own systems but rebalancing the whole body and correcting any problems within the body, to ensure conception, and eliminate the possibility of miscarriage occurring once pregnancy is achieved.
CranioSacral will ensure that the Mother’s body will be free of problems during the pregnancy, and right up until and during, the birth of the child.
IVF TREATMENT
If the Mother to be is working with IVF Practitioners, CST will be of great advantage in allowing for a successful pregnancy by improving the effectiveness of IVF and other medical treatment techniques.
Cranio-Sacral Therapy Fertility / IVF Treatment Program
Dr Arikian has Two Treatment Programs to fit into your current situation and needs.
- For those Between rounds of Fertility (IVF) treatment -or-
- Those who are not having Medical Fertility treatment at present
1. I recommend receiving treatment once a week or every two weeks. This will depend on your needs as a couple, the severity of the fertility issue that you face and the ideal time within which you aim to have a child – the coming year, year and a half two years (including full term pregnancy)
2. For those who are about to start a new round of Fertility Treatment (IVF) or those who have already started a round of treatment.
As each round of treatment is planned a few months in advance we recommend the follow plan in order to help you maximise the effectiveness that CranioSacral therapy can offer your body.
Initially TWO treatments when you start to take the pill to regulate your period.
2 to 4 treatments in the month or 6 weeks before your eggs are removed.
On the day of having the eggs removed to help your body recover from the procedure.
The day before reinsertion of the eggs to help your body prepare itself for the fertilised eggs.
2 to 4 treatments during the 2 week after the insertion procedure, this is aimed at helping you relax, maintain balance in your body and improve the chances of the fertilized egg successfully growing.
During your Pregnancy
I recommend for all pregnancy cases, regular monthly or bimonthly treatments to help your body adapt to the changes of pregnancy, to maintain optimal hormonal balance, to increase blood flow to the womb and your growing baby, help reduce your stress levels and cope with other aches and pains that are associated with pregnancy, including backache, nausea, tiredness and also to avoid gestational diabetes and high blood levels.
Preparing for Birth
Finally we recommend that you have up to three treatments before the expected birth date to help you and your baby through the last hurdles.
Treatment before birth can help to reduce the pain of labour, improve and soften the body to allow for an easier birth for mother and baby.
DID YOU KNOW !!
A human body can bear only up to 45 del (unit) of pain. But at the time of giving birth, a woman feels up to 57 del (unit) of pain. This is similar to twenty bones betting fractured at a time.
