Infertility problems?

At our maternity center, we are excited to introduce you to a new alternative for infertility problems: Ramon Gort Salvia, a specialized physiotherapist with a Master’s Degree in Integrative Chinese Medicine in Fertility Disorders. Here we tell you more about him and his innovative approach.

Acupuncture in Fertility Disorders

What does it consist of?

The first visit begins with a diagnosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). This diagnosis is divided into three parts:

  1. Interrogation: The therapist asks questions about medical issues and the patient’s general health.
  2. Pulse: The therapist takes the pulse to obtain information about the energetic state of the organs and viscera.
  3. Tongue: The condition of the tongue provides additional information about the patient’s internal functioning. Together with the pulse and the interrogation, the specific pathological syndrome in TCM that is affecting the patient’s fertility is determined.

After diagnosis, treatment is initiated, using different branches of TCM:

Acupuncture

The main technique consists of inserting very fine, sterile needles into precise points on the body. We use Traditional Chinese Acupuncture, as well as other techniques recognized for their effective results.

Tui-Na Massage

This is a Chinese therapeutic massage used to activate circulation in certain areas of the body, meridians and acupuncture points.

Moxibustion

This technique involves the application of heat to acupuncture points and areas using mugwort cigars.

Dietetics

After the TCM diagnosis, the patient’s diet is adapted according to her specific needs, prioritizing certain foods, flavors and specific ways of cooking.

Dietary supplements

Depending on the patient’s condition and syndrome, dietary supplements will be recommended to enhance the effects of the treatment.

Lifestyle

The patient will be advised on her balance between activity and rest, both physical and mental. In addition, breathing exercises, self-massage and relaxation techniques will be taught.
