When the wish for a child is slow to be fulfilled, osteopathy can support the body as it prepares for conception. The aim is not to “cure” infertility, which calls for specialist medical follow-up, but to remove the mechanical and functional obstacles that can disturb the terrain: an unbalanced pelvis, visceral tension (uterus, ovaries, intestine), chronic stress settled in the diaphragm and the autonomic nervous system.
A multidisciplinary approach
For fertility, I offer support that combines:
- Osteopathy: rebalancing the pelvis, releasing the utero-ovarian ligaments, visceral and cranial work.
- Chinese medicine and acupuncture: toning reproductive energy (Spleen, Kidneys), regulating the cycle (see the dedicated website).
- Fertility yoga: postures that open the pelvis, conscious breathing, grounding and relaxation.
Support during assisted reproduction
If you are going through assisted reproduction, osteopathy can support the different stages (ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, embryo transfer) by working on areas of tension and on the nervous system. It is complementary care that fits within the framework set by your medical team.
