Homeopathy & pre-conceptioN - foresight |
| |
|
One of our homeopaths, Vivien Levene, specialises in helping those who may be experiencing problems conceiving naturally. She combines homeopathic treatment, which improves overall health and specifically reproduction health, together with the pre-conception programme developed by Foresight. Foresight's programme identifies and addresses various areas of concern in the health of any couple to optimise their health before conception. Hair analysis is a very important part of the programme, which would be included as part of the treatment. |
ABOUT HYPNOBIRTHING
HypnoBirthing provides you with techniques for a natural , easier and positive birth. HypnoBirthing is essentially a method that shows you how to work with, not against, your body and helps you to overcome fears surrounding the birth of your baby, so that you can be well prepared for that marvellous day your baby is born. All over the world trained HypnoBirthing Practitioners are successfully teaching women and their birthing partners how to have a natural and calm birth.
THE HYPNOBIRTHING COURSE
During the course you are given the tools and techniques you need to feel comfortable, relaxed and in control as you give birth. Dads-to-be (or birthing partners) are shown how to help you relax and keep you focused giving him/her the opportunity to feel fully involved and closely connected during your pregnancy and birth. Throughout the course you will be given exercises to practise together and on your own. Some of the techniques used are deep relaxation, prenatal bonding, affirmations, self-hypnosis, fear-release, massage, visualisations and special breathing techniques which will take you through labour and delivery. These techniques are really easy to master and give you confidence so you can look forward to the birth. This enjoyable and informative course will thoroughly prepare both of you for having the best possible experience of childbirth. The course includes the official HypnoBirthing® Book , a Birth Plan, the Rainbow Relaxation & Birthing Affirmation CD, a Course Folder and handouts. Groups are kept small enough to ensure that techniques are mastered and individual needs are fully met.

During Pregnancy
Homeopathic tissue salts are an excellent way to help you and your growing baby get the nutrition you need during pregnancy. There are 12 tissue salts each of which play a different role in maintaining healthy cells within the body.They offer similar benefits to vitamin & mineral supplements but in a special non-toxic form that is safe to take in pregnancy. Homeopaths use a special programme of tissue salts designed to promote the wellbeing of pregnant women and their developing babies. 1/2hr sessions available (£30 in total) for small groups of pregnant women to outline the programme, tissue salts available here.
The tissue salts used are :
1. Calc fluor , which helps to maintain the elasticity of the tissues. This is of course very important as the mothers body has to stretch throughout pregnancy to accommodate her growing baby. Women who take Calc fluor often find it reduces stretch marks. This tissue salt can also help prevent circulatory problems & varicose veins.
2 . Ferrum Phos is a homeopathic form of iron so it can help support the blood & circulation, reducing the tendency to anaemia.
3 . Nat Mur helps to maintain the body's fluid balance so it is valuable in preventing water retention, swollen hands or ankles and high blood pressure. It is also required for the health of nerves & muscles including the heart.
4. Silica plays a role in building strong teeth & bones, and will support these tissues in the mother during her pregnancy.
5. Mag Phos keeps nerves and muscles functioning smoothly, reducing the tendency to painful cramps which can develop in later pregnancy. |
