Online, April 22, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Dr. Kathleen Albertson, licensed acupuncturist, and herbalist, specializing in infertility and women's health will speak at the Southwest region of Resolve, The National Infertility Support Group, and "PATH OF HOPE" conference on Saturday, May 21st at California State University at Dominguez Hills, California. "Studies show that acupuncture in combination with IUI (intrauterine insemination) or IVF (in vitro fertilization) increases chances of pregnancy by 40 to 60%." "I encourage all couples facing fertility to explore this option as it is often underutilized and undervalued as a treatment option. "An improved take-home baby rate is what we're looking for, and integrating Eastern and Western medicine seems to be the right combination!"
Dr. Albertson is the author of "Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine for Women's Health: Bridging the Gap between Western and Eastern Medicine." She holds her Ph.D. in Holistic Nutrition. The body needs to be in balance---combining acupuncture, lifestyle and nutrition for the best success.
Today, more women experience unexplained infertility because of the desire to pursue education and professional careers prior to marriage and family. This, combined with long-term use of birth control, exposure to environmental toxins, chronic use of over-the-counter medications, processed foods, stress, and fatigue are causes often resolved with acupuncture. The conference runs from 8:30 AM-4:30 PM.
Dr. Albertson is available for interviews and consultation. She has been in private practice for over 16 years. Irvine, CA (949) 861-8901. http://www.orangecountyacupuncture.com
