Physical therapy may increase natural pregnancy
Rehab Regs, August 5, 2004
Two studies published last month in Medscape General Medicine, OB/Gyn & Women's Health found that physical therapy greatly increases pregnancy rates in previously infertile women. Researchers reported that the Wurn Technique, which has a patent pending, is highly effective at increasing fertility in both natural conception and in vitro fertilization (IVF). The natural fertility study reported a 71% pregnancy success rate within one year of treatment, and a 67% pregnancy rate for women undergoing IVF.
