Pre-conception care is becoming an extremely necessary part pregnancy planning.

Times are changing...we now live in a very toxic world. Many women and men have worked in toxic occupations (on mine sites, hairdressing, farms etc) which can lead to a build up of toxins in the body tissue. Other factors that tend to influence the health of the mother and child and which also hampers a healthy pregnancy are the diet and lifestyle of both the mother and father prior to conception.

This includes our tendency towards high sugar, high carbohydrate diets, intake of alcohol, cigarettes, medications, recreational drugs, and exposure to chemicals and electo-magnetic fields.

It is therefore advisable that you and your partner begin to ‘clean up and detoxify’ 4-6 month prior to conception. This gives the cells time to be renewed and for new ‘healthy’ sperms and eggs to be produced.

Bloom Family Health can assist with the removal of this toxic build up through a slow and gentle detoxification process using homoeopathy and nutritional supplementation and through education about heathy diet and lifestyle choices.

The Bloom fertility program is recommended for all 'would be parents' - as it increases overall fertility and enables pregnancy to occur more rapidly and successfully.

Once you have fallen pregnant you will want the best care you can get for you and your child.

Bloom offers a pregnancy care program which provides you with natural health care throughout your pregnancy. At Bloom we monitor your nutritional levels, provide dietary and lifestyle advice and nutritional recommendations that will help keep you fit and healthy throughout the pregnancy.

Homoeopathy can be useful for many common pregnancy conditions because it is fast acting, non-toxic and very gentle. It works by gently prompting the bodys own healing mechanism's to restore balance. While homeopathy doesn't heal itself it triggers the body to heal itself. Conditions like nausea and vomiting (morning sickness), constipation, edema (fluid retention), hemorrhoids & varicose veins can be greatly reduced when homoeopathy is used this way. Also as a lead up to the birth it can be safely used to prepare for labour, to tone the uterus and emotionally prepare the mother for the birth - this is found to calm the mother and baby and enable an easier delivery.

Post-partum care – It is useful after the birth to help increase healing, reduce bruising, pain and discomfort, as well as for retention of urine, feeding problems, emotional re-adjustment and post partum depression.

Infant Care- Homoeopathy is non-toxic, safe & gentle for infants and is often used for post birth trauma, feeding problems and to simply enable the baby to adjust outside the womb.
