Preparing for Pregnancy Programme

Prepare your body for conception and pregnancy

Whether you’ve just started trying for a baby or have been on this journey for a while, it’s crucial to prepare your body for a healthy pregnancy and support your future baby’s well-being.

Unexplained infertility often requires deeper investigation to identify the real issue. If IVF is your path, maintaining balance in your body, mind, and emotions is key. Work with me for a unique approach that differs from other options or going it alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get started on the programme?

Step 1 – After your initial payment of £600 is made, you are invited to an online portal to complete the necessary paperwork, book your initial consultation and your remaining block of regular Acupuncture treatments.

Step 2 – Your functional test kits are ordered and sent to your home address for you to complete and return to the laboratory. Your blood test is booked for a particular day during your menstrual cycle. The phlebotomy cost is included if done in my Inverness clinic, if not, additional phlebotomy charges will apply.

Step 3 – During your initial consultation and Acupuncture treatment, we discuss and create your personalised treatment plan, and incorporate functional test results when available. Fertility and pregnancy supplements are reviewed and optimised made based on your test results. 

Step 4 – During the next 4-months, your treatment plan is reviewed and updated to boost and optimise your fertility levels and future pregnancy. 

Are we a good fit to work together?

I work with male and female couples, same sex couples and women planning parenthood on their own. If you are ready to work on your health and make the changes needed to maximise your fertility, I am here to help you.

Although I can’t guarantee your pregnancy, I commit to completely supporting your fertility journey. I support you to be accountable for your health, stay motivated and make manageable changes by prioritising what needs done. In turn, you will commit to regular Acupuncture treatments, interwoven with diet and lifestyle changes to support treatment.   

Fertility takes two, what about my partner?

When a male is involved in the fertility journey, his involvement is key. I expect both partners to attend the initial consultation. Working with your partner ensures his general health and sperm are optimised before conception (or sperm collection if undergoing IVF).

What if I am pregnant before I finish the programme?

After Preparing for Pregnancy completes patients can move to a maintenance plan. If a positive pregnancy occurs within the 4-month programme, any remaining sessions are allocated to the first trimester of pregnancy where Acupuncture and Nutrition are both safe and effective. 

I can’t afford to pay as a lump sum, can I still book and start?

The cost of the programme works out at £400 per month over 4 months, this equates to £100 per session for combined Acupuncture and Nutrition. I understand paying in full for this can be challenging. The initial payment of £600 covers the cost of the functional tests, interpretation and analysis. Contact me to discuss paying the remaining balance in regular installments.
