Are you going to embark on your fertility journey next year?
Now is the time to come and see me for preconception care
1 session we can go over all your recent bloods work to get nutritional status where it needs to be for conception and give you tips and tricks you can use to optimise your cycle. I have a few spots in Albury/wodonga Border Medical Laser and Aesthetics this Friday and ample availability in the Sunshine Coast Women & The way. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Let’s educate to empower you in your health journey!

Why We Include Men in Fertility Care

In over a decade of practice, I’ve noticed something surprising: around 90% of the fertility patients we see are women.
But infertility isn’t a “women’s issue.” Men make up half of the fertility equation—yet they’re often overlooked in the early stages of care.

There’s a growing trend where couples try for a year, sometimes longer, without even checking s***m health—or assuming “all is good” after a quick analysis. The reality? S***m quality has declined significantly over the past 40 years, and thorough preconception screening is crucial for both partners.

Our Approach: Preconception Care for Both of You

We focus on optimising fertility before you even start trying. In the 3–6 months leading up to conception, we help you:

Check and optimise s***m and egg health

Review full blood panels and hormone levels for both partners

Improve nutrient status, sleep, energy, and stress resilience

Support your nervous system and reproductive health naturally

By working with both partners, we ensure you’re giving your future baby the very best start possible—laying the foundations for stronger, healthier generations.

🌸 Embrace the energy of spring with these two Chinese medicine lifestyle tips! 🌿

Wake up with the sun: In Chinese medicine, the early morning hours are considered the best time to rise with the sun and embrace its energy. Try waking up a bit earlier each day to align yourself with the natural rhythms of spring. This can help boost your energy levels and promote overall well-being.

Eat seasonal foods: Spring is the time of renewal and growth, so it's important to eat foods that support these qualities. Include plenty of fresh greens, sprouts, and young plants in your diet to help cleanse and rejuvenate your body after the winter months. Incorporating foods like green tea, asparagus, and leafy greens can help support your liver and gallbladder, which are particularly active during the spring season.

By incorporating these simple tips into your daily routine, you can help harmonize your body with the season and promote health and vitality. Give them a try and feel the difference it makes! 🌱💫
