Mr Francis Rock has over 18 years of experience in the field of reproductive health. He specializes in assisting women on their path to conception, offering natural solutions such as acupuncture and customized herbal formulas, which are equally suitable for women undergoing In-vitro Fertilization (IVF) and Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatments.

 

Traditional Chinese medicinal herbs and acupuncture have been used for over two thousand years to address gynaecological issues, including infertility. The critical period spanning 3 to 6 months before conception is key to successful pregnancy. Within this timeframe, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can facilitate natural conception, avoiding the need for pharmaceuticals or invasive procedures. Some studies have shown that Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture can enhance fertility by:

​

• Regulating and balancing hormones to induce ovulation and thus improve fertility.

• Enhancing blood flow to the uterus, fostering a healthy uterine lining and increasing the chances of successful embryo implantation.

• Reducing stress and anxiety, which can have a positive impact on fertility.

• Regulating menstrual cycles and ameliorating irregularities, potentially improving ovulation and fertility.

 

The treatment approach used at Waterloo Wellbeing Centre Plymouth include acupuncture and tailored herbal formulas. These formulas are meticulously prepared for each individual patient, with the overarching goal of harmonizing hormones and enhancing overall well-being. The ultimate aim is to optimize fertility potential.
