Book Description

September 5, 2006
Introducing the only clinically proven program--steeped in ancient Chinese healing traditions--that has enabled hundreds of infertile couples to conceive.

At Wu's Healing Center in San Francisco, miracles are happening. Women and their partners come to the clinic--often from across the country-- to fulfill a passionately held yet fragile dream: to conceive and deliver the healthy baby that mainstream doctors have told them they cannot have. Using traditional Chinese medical techniques, sometimes integrated with Western fertility treatments, Dr. Angela Wu is helping these couples experience the miracle of birth.

In this book, Dr. Wu details a proven 6-part self-care regimen that helps create the internal harmony and balance vital to conception. Her techniques not only enhance the results and reduce the side effects of in vitro and other Western fertility treatments, they also shorten labor and speed postpartum recovery. Babies benefit too, adopting regular sleep patterns more quickly and getting sick less frequently.

At a time when one in five U.S. couples is struggling with fertility problems, this practical and uplifting volume, filled with the inspirational stories of Dr. Wu's grateful patients, will be a godsend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fertility Wisdom, October 12, 2006
This review is from: Fertility Wisdom: How Traditional Chinese Medicine Can Help Overcome Infertility (Paperback)
I have two beautiful children thanks to the fantastic treatment I received at Dr. Wu's Healing Center. This book will explain how medical treatment at her clinic transformed me from an "infertile woman" as the Western doctors described me, into busy mother of two little boys. The methods Dr. Wu uses often seemed strange to me. I still don't understand how it all works, but I don't know exactly how my fax machine works either. I simply know that it does. I am currently involved with my third round - hoping for baby #3. My story is in her book. My book name is Lila and my children are called John and Tanner. If you are struggling with infertility, read this book! Gotta go..crying baby! :-)

This review is from: Fertility Wisdom: How Traditional Chinese Medicine Can Help Overcome Infertility (Paperback)
This is an amazing book. Well written and a pleasure to read. Covers all of the things that I did to give birth to a gorgeous, perfect child 1 year after being told by Western fertility experts that this could never happen. I LOVE this book. Buy it, go for it ( find an acupuncturist, change your diet, follow the mind-body exercises ) and make sure to pass on the info.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good book with unique information, December 4, 2006
By 
Lisa (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fertility Wisdom: How Traditional Chinese Medicine Can Help Overcome Infertility (Paperback)
I've purchased and read a large number of infertilty books (over 25): some good, some useless, and some which offer unique enough information to become a part of my small collection. The rest I give away. This one is a real keeper. Good Chinese medicine diet tips (different from western diet tips) plus exercises, abdominal massage tips, success stories, acupuncture benefits, etc. Highy recommended!
