Ever stood in the supplement aisle wondering what you're missing? 🛒

Often, the answer is already on your plate. If you're preparing for pregnancy, these three are worth knowing:

🥬 Folate: leafy greens, asparagus, lentils and chickpeas. It plays a role in early cell development, including those first weeks before many people know they're pregnant.

🥚 Choline: eggs are the easy win. It works hand in hand with folate, and plenty of us aren't getting enough.

🍗 Protein: a palm-sized serve at every main meal helps keep blood sugar steady. A 150g steak delivers only around 30g, so it adds up faster than you'd think.

Consistency at the table tends to matter more than perfection.

Many IVF cycles that didn’t work, and been told there’s nothing more you can do for your egg quality? There’s more to the picture than that. 🌿

Your follicles take around 3 months to mature before ovulation, which gives you a window to support the environment they develop in: cellular energy, sleep and stress, antioxidant balance, and fewer everyday hormone disruptors.

At Eastern Therapies, we look at the whole person, including stress, sleep, digestion and your cycle. Acupuncture, Chinese medicine, laser therapy and targeted nutrition can be used as part of a broader fertility support plan alongside your medical team.

The hospital bag is packed. The pram is built. But what about your body?

Most birth prep covers the checklist. Far less covers the pelvis, baby’s position and your nervous system.

In the final weeks, our labour prep care brings it together:

🔸 Acupuncture, traditionally used to support circulation and a softer, more open pelvis
🔸 Moxa, traditionally used to encourage baby into a better position, including posterior babies
🔸 Herbal formulas and essential oils to help you go into labour
🔸 Calm Birth and hypnobirthing to ease fear and anxiety

Think of it as training for the biggest event your body will ever take on.

Red light therapy is everywhere right now, but not all light devices are the same.

Think torch versus laser pointer. LED devices spread light wide and soft. Low-level laser sends a focused beam, so the dose and target are more precise.

That matters when the area you’re thinking about sits deep in the pelvis. Light has to pass through several layers of tissue first.

Much of the fertility-related research has used laser rather than home LED devices. If you’re preparing for fertility or IVF laser therapy is what you need.

Comment LASER and we’ll send you details on how it works.

For 20 years, I've supported women on their fertility journey. Many came to me after unsuccessful IVF cycles or months of trying naturally.

What I've seen is that it's rarely one thing. It's usually a few things working together, and they look different for every woman.

A personalised plan may include:

-Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine
-Ovulation tracking
-Functional medicine testing
-Cycle support
-Reducing inflammation
-Lowering toxin exposure
-Better sleep
-Reducing stress

Your eggs are some of the most energy-hungry cells in your body. ⚡

A single egg is estimated to hold 100,000 to 600,000 mitochondria, the tiny "batteries" that power every cell. S***m run on that same cellular energy. Laser therapy is being explored for exactly that. 🔦

So when someone asks "what else can I do?", the answer isn't always another supplement.

How might laser therapy support fertility care?

⚡ Cellular energy: low-level laser is thought to support mitochondrial function, the "battery" inside every cell.

🩸 Circulation: may support blood flow to the reproductive organs.

🌿 Oxidative stress: may help support the cellular environment for eggs and s***m.

🔥 Inflammation: may help modulate low-grade inflammation.

🧵 Scar tissue: is sometimes used to support soft tissue and adhesion areas.

🌱 Gut health: may indirectly support whole-body wellbeing.

At Eastern Therapies in Bondi Junction, we use gentle laser alongside acupuncture, nutrition, and lifestyle support, built around your individual picture.

Ever counted days on an app and wondered why it didn’t match what your body was telling you?

Many cycle apps predict your fertile window from an average cycle length. If your cycles vary, even a little, that average can miss the mark.

Your body gives you better clues. Basal body temperature shows the pattern after ovulation. Cervical mucus signals it as it approaches. Ovulation kits pick up the LH surge just beforehand. And blood tests, arranged through your GP, can measure hormones like progesterone to help confirm ovulation has occurred.

In Chinese medicine, we’ve always paid attention to the rhythm of the cycle. Tracking is simply a modern way of listening to it.

Share it with a friend who’s tracking hers.

Tracking is one piece of the picture, and individual cycles vary.

Listening to or playing music can be a good stress reliever. It can provide mental distraction, ease muscle tension and help reduce stress hormones.

Turn up the music, have a good dance and be immersed in the moment.

Four injections, and the shoulder still wouldn't budge.

That's often when people start looking for another way in.

Frozen shoulder is tricky. It's slow, and it affects sleep, mood and everyday movement, not just the joint. In Chinese medicine it's called "fifty year old shoulder".

This was session four with this patient. We're working on range of movement, sleep and pain together, as one plan.

We used moxa and laser to achieve the results.

Save this for someone who's been told to "just wait it out."
