Acupuncture in IVF
IVF (in vitro fertilisation) is an assisted reproductive technique that is commonly offered to couples who have been having trouble conceiving. IVF involves the uniting of an egg and sperm in the laboratory (in vitro) followed by the transfer of fertilised embryos back into the woman’s womb.
IVF is a costly procedure, usually starting at around £4000 per cycle depending on the clinic you are visiting. Despite the huge costs, success rates can be low and with the average couple needing 3 cycles to get pregnant, the overall cost of IVF can easily exceed £10,000.
Acupuncture and Trigeminal Neuralgia
Trigeminal Neuralgia is an intensely painful condition affecting the trigeminal nerve that carries sensation from the face to the brain. Everyday actions like chewing, talking, brushing teeth can often bring on episodes of severe stabbing, shooting pains across the face that feels like an electric shock. Sounds painful? Trigeminal neuralgia is amongst one of the most painful conditions known to exist.
Lily is very excited to announce that she will be taking over the Apsley clinic from December 2009 alongside Sports Massage and Pilates therapist Carly Day. Watch this space for the latest news on our offers and what you can expect from our newly renamed centre: Revive Sports Rehabilitation & Acupuncture Clinic!
