It was an absolute honor, pleasure and privilege to spend the past five days in Vancouver at the Integrative Fertility Symposium learning for world-renowned leaders in the field of reproductive medicine. Speakers from Canada, the United States, the U.K, Australia and Europe traveled to Vancouver to share their research and knowledge on all aspects of fertility from both a Western Medicine and Chinese Medicine point of view. It was amazing to see different practitioners with different areas of expertise convene in one place to share one common goal – creating babies.
One of the great things about this symposium is that it promotes INTEGRATION of different styles of medicine. It’s not an “us vs them” mentality like so many other fields. Medical Doctors and Reproductive Endocrinologists have seen first how acupuncture and Chinese Medicine have benefited their patients and are fully supportive of this field. Most Fertility Clinics work closely with acupuncturists and Naturopathic doctors because it improves IVF and IUI results. It is satisfying and empowering to receive the respect and support of these doctors and be able to learn from them.
I am home now and back at the clinic. I am so excited to implement everything I have learned and help more patients achieve their fertility goals!
