Healing

 
Infertility affects 1 in 6 couples, making it increasingly more important for you to approach your fertility with as much knowledge and Natural assistance as possible.
 
With many couples leaving parenthood until they are in the mid 30's, the chance of conceiving decreases due to bodily changes (hormonal patterns, sperm or egg deficiencies),  lifestyle choices (an accumulation of smoking, alcohol, caffeine, stress, contraceptive pill...) or simply that desire to get pregnant "now" inhibits the conception process.
 
The Natural Fertility Process
Our Fertility service will start with an in-depth Holistic consultation, this means we won't just address the biological side of the couple but the emotional too. A Birth Counsellor is on hand to support any issues that may arise at any stage of the pregnancy cycle.
 
It takes approx 3-4 months for the new life of ovum and sperm to begin, therefore it is suggested that the couple work with the program for at least 4 months prior to trying to conceive. This will allow for your body to detox, de-stress and for any herbal or nutritional supplements or dietary changes to take effect. Thus allowing for better ovum and sperm to develop.
 
Abdominal Sacral Massage and Reflexology will help to clear physical and emotional blockages in the pelvic region (for both men and women), stimulating blood flow to the reproductive organs and helping to encourage stronger, fresher ovum and sperm. This treatment also assists in breaking down scar tissue that may have formed on the ovaries, which slows down and makes the journey of the new ovum tougher. The Fallopian tubes are often cleared, making way for an easier journey of the ovum and sperm. Assisting the Uterus to clear herself, loosening any clots and hardened lining will make for an easier implantation and can limit the chance of poor implantation which leads to miscarriages.
Self Help Massage is shown to clients, thus enabling them to continue the healing and connecting process at home.
 
Nutrition is imperative for a healthy conception; knowing the right foods for you and your partner to aid detoxification and to support the hormones and bodily needs is as important as knowing when to try to conceive. Without healthy nutrition; healthy conception cannot take place.
Nutritional and Herbal supplements may be suggested.
 
The Billings Ovulation Method (BOM) will teach you and your partner how to understand your body's signs that you are ovulating.  This method does not rely on taking your temperature** as this has been proven to be an inaccurate reading. The BOM only requires you to be aware of the sensation you feel at the Vulva, and a few other signs will help to confirm that ovulation has taken place and from which ovary.
It is an easy and fun method to learn and can be used at any stage of your menstrual life. Applying the knowledge learnt at these sessions can also help you to avoid pregnancy when you are breastfeeding or wishing to space childbearing.
 
**(Temperature reading is a good way for knowing if your Thyroid is underactive which is of use in Fertility, as it is important that all endocrine glands are functioning optimally)
 
In some circumstances you may need the assistance of an Exercise Physiologist; whether it be that you have lower back issues or weak core muscles, both of which can disrupt the Fertility process, an Exercise Physiologist is able to provide you with full rehabilitation programs. In the cases of this being a medical issue, please ask your doctor for a referral, this service can be claimed for through medicare or health funds. Click here for further information. 
 
Workshops are also available on Fertility, Conscious Conception or Fertility & Pregnancy Nutrition.
 
Ante Natal & Doula services are also available. I am currently not able to offer Doula services, however, Bellingen is blessed with a beautiful woman, Mieke, who not only offers Doula services, but BellyCasting, Birth Song and Birth Planning.
 
These methods are all safe and effective, being offered by trained and qualified practitioners.
 
Testimonials
 
Using a combination of the above services in both the UK and Australia, we have had much success. Here are a few of our clients testimonials
 
Michelle, aged 35. Brentwood, UK
I had 2 children and had no problem conceiving them, however, when trying for my 3rd I just couldn't seem to fall pregnant. I'd heard of Clare's work, but was very sceptical, it all seemed a bit "out there". But after a year of not conceiving, I gave it a go.
My first sessions were mainly body work with some visualisation work. I soon relaxed and shed many tears that I didn't even realise were stored! Clare & Donovan then discussed my husband and I nutritional status, we thought we ate healthily but our diets changed, it was a simple lifestyle to follow. We also gave up the alcohol and copious amounts of coffee, and changed my work schedule. Suddenly I noticed how less stressed I was and how much more energy I had, I felt great.  I was sneaking Brazil nuts into my husbands lunch bag, he never questioned it and I assume he was eating them!!
 
I had even started to sleep with crystals under my pillow, I was immersing myself in her beliefs and work!
 
We already had 2 beautiful girls and my husband and I really wanted a boy to complete our family, Clare discussed the Billings method with me, and taught me how to be aware of the ovulation signs and when to make love to aim for a boy (my hubby was very sceptical!). I couldn't believe that I'd been menstruating all these years and how no idea of what my body was doing, I had long, irregular cycles so never knew when my period would come! This helped me to be prepared.
My first session was in October 2007, we increased the sessions and nutrition advice in January 2008 , I didn't change come lifestyle habits until April but by July 2008 I found out I was pregnant. In March 2009 I gave birth to a beautiful baby Boy.
 
My husband and I are so grateful for Clare & Donovan's hard work and passion, without their knowledge we'd either have given up or gone totally mad!! THANK YOU!!
 
Isabella, aged 36, London, UK.
I'd met Clare & Donovan quite a few years ago, and we had gone our seperate ways through different employment. I bumped into Clare a couple of years later and told her I was trying to conceive, but had no luck for the last 8 months. Clare dragged me off for a quick reflexology and healing session in my lunchbreak. I'd had some Reiki before, this felt quite different and that combined with the reflexology - I didn't want to return to work. Clare visited me the week after in my office and I had another session - at the end she had a big smile and said it wouldn't be long now, there was a baby waiting. I called Clare 2 weeks later to say my period was late - she knew... 3 days later it was confirmed, I was pregnant.
I was over the moon and kept telling everyone that Clare had got me pregnant - which she reminded me that actually, my husband had...
Clare worked with me throught my whole pregnancy, offering ante natal advice, massages and healing.
August 2006 I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.
Clare now lives in Australia, so it wasn't convenient for me to seek physical help from her for this conception, but through distant healing and nutritional and other advice, I'm now in week 20...
When I first had Clare help me, she didn't have the same knowledge or experience that she does now - she is meant to work with fertility, babies are drawn to her energy. Thank you Clare xx
