At the Phoenix Centre, we use the most up to date and appropriate hypnotherapeutic techniques including A Fertile Mind. Our therapists were trained by Tracy Donegan who developed this beautiful program.
With our unique systematic approach to hypnotherapy (5PATH TM) we can effectively reduce the effects of stress that are associated with infertility and increase your chances of becoming pregnant.
This specialist hypnosis for fertility treatment programme is tailored to each individual couple or individual woman, by working with psychological factors, physiological factors, current and past fertility treatments, conception history and the results from medical investigations.
Using a wide range of hypnotherapeutic techniques, many “blocks†that have a detrimental impact on the likelihood of conception can be removed, allowing nature to take its course and increasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy.
We are already working successfully with couples from across the country with a variety of fertility issues including unexplained infertility, PCOS, Low quality sperm and low sperm count, poor quality eggs, Maleusiophobia (fear of childbirth) and more. Our program will also complement ART Techniques such as donor egg transfer, frozen embryo transfer, IVF, IUI etc.
Infertility, which affects as many as 1 in 5 couples in Australia, is defined as the inability of a couple to conceive a child after one year of unprotected sex and is usually diagnosed through medical interviews and physical examinations of both partners.
One in five couples now find it difficult to conceive in Australia which is no surprise with our fast paced stressed lifestyles.
According to Alice Domar
" founder of the Boston Mind Body Center for Women's Health. The majority of infertile women report that infertility is the most upsetting experience of their lives. Infertile women report equivalent levels of anxiety and depression as women with cancer, HIV status or heart disease.
Women dealing with fertility issues report higher than normal levels of physical and psychological symptoms including: insomnia, headaches, fatigue, abdominal pain, depression, isolation, anger, frustration and anxiety. Although some researchers believe that negative emotions may prevent conception, it seems much more likely that these feelings are the result, not the cause, of infertility. Either way, a reduction in stress is important.
It can be very difficult to escape the stress of infertility in your life. However, there are tools that you and your partner can learn that will help you manage or reduce the stress and regain a sense of control over your lives. A Fertile Mind is not a magic cure. In fact, itâ€TMs most helpful when combined with traditional medicine.
Many different studies show that hypnosis & hypnotherapy have doubled the success of IVF treatment. Levitasâ€TMs study of 185 women found that 28% of women in the group who were hypnotized became pregnant, compared with 14% of those who were not.
Since mind and body are linked, our efforts to heal the mind will have a positive effect on the body. If stress in our lives can alter our physiology, then learning to manage it helps heal both our emotional and physical selves.
A Fertile Mind helps in the following ways:
Increases your sense of control and well-being.
Reduces physical symptoms of insomnia, stress, fatigue and headaches.
Teaches you coping strategies to reduce the sense of sadness and grief
Helps to bring back balance to your life and manage anger effectively
Reduces anxiety and discomfort during fertility treatments
