Fertility Detox Retreat

“Planning for a pregnancy is possibly the first and most important step you can take towards getting your body, diet and lifestyle into shape”

Midi Fairgrieve, founder, Detox International

Detoxification is one of the most powerful and important steps you can make when preparing for pregnancy. Whether your motivation is to overcome existing fertility problems or simply to be in the best of health, detox is an essential starting point and is well known for enhancing fertility.

Our Aim

We aim to help enhance your Fertility, and give the best start for your baby’s life. This process works in a safe and natural way to bring your body into balance in order to achieve a healthy pregnancy. We hope to provide you with a relaxing, calming environment, where we can advise you on natural ways to enhance your fertility.

Our Fertility programme, when put into practice is a truly integrated approach, which looks at the whole person, enabling couples with fertility issues to conceive successfully. The treatments integrate acupuncture, reflexology, diet and supplements into a specific programme created to enhance your fertility.

Who can the Fertility Detox help?

Our Fertility detox programme is suitable for anyone, men and women, who have either had problems conceiving or had problems once they have conceived, including miscarriage, still and premature birth, ectopic pregnancy, as well as individuals (or couples) wishing to enhance their fertility and be in the best of health before conception.

How does a detox retreat help with fertility?

Fertility, like any other aspect of your body's health, can be positively or negatively influenced by lifestyle and diet. Our fertility enhancing detox programme has been developed to help the female to get her system enlivened and prepared to carry through a successful pregnancy and the male to positively influence the sperm health many months prior to conception.

Detoxification, optimum nutrient levels and a balanced mental, emotional, and spiritual outlook have the most powerful effect on improving overall health and increasing fertility.

How does this programme work?

All sorts of different factors can influence fertility. In some cases underlying health issues may be adversely affecting fertility, such as IBS, constipation, thrush or allergies. Once these conditions are cleared up, a successful pregnancy invariably follows. Conditions like these rob the body of much needed nutrients and drain its resources needed for a healthy functioning reproductive system.

Sometimes infertility is rooted in deeper psychological or emotional levels, causing physical problems to show up. This powerful programme follows a holistic approach which combines a physical detox with a mental, emotion and spiritual detox as well. Combined with essential nutrients it enables the detoxification of harmful chemicals and heavy metals in a safe way.

What is included:

The week will consist of the full detox programme including juice fasting, colon cleansing and yoga, combined with several key additions:

• Pre-detox hair mineral test (4-6 weeks prior) to determine your body levels of minerals and micro-minerals. It also helps us to find out if you have traces of heavy metal toxicity - a factor in many problematic fertility cases. The detox will cover this aspect of cleansing.

Throughout the week, relevant and important subjects will be covered in detail in a series of talks and mini-workshops. Our aim is to give you the knowledge and naturopathic means to continue to take care of your health pre and post conception.

We will be covering the following subjects during the detox week:

• Chemicals (agro chemicals, household chemicals etc.) and how they affect your fertility.
• Nutrition & nutritional supplements for boosting fertility.
• Determining mineral and trace element requirements via the hair test analysis results.
• The negative effects of social poisons and common stimulants on fertility & pregnancy.
• Male infertility.
• Female Infertility.
• Electromagnetic pollution.
• Individual case studies and nutritional consultation.

In addition we have a range of complementary therapies on offer including reflexology and acupuncture; both well know to assist in the stimulation of the reproductive system. Other therapies include Shiatsu, therapeutic massage, Rolfing (body work), Manual lymphatic drainage and foot reading.

Background

The founder of detox International Midi Fairgrieve worked for many years as the Scotland based Nutrition representative of FORESIGHT, the Association for the Promotion of Preconceptual Care. Moreover, fertility it is a subject close to her heart, Midi having treated her own premature menopause in her late thirties using a specific detox and nutritional programme combined with complementary therapies, resulting in giving birth to a healthy baby boy, aged 40.

"My own journey through infertility has inspired me to devise a programme of detox and nutritional education to help others. Our aim is to nurture fertility clients with personalised care - recognising that fertility is often a highly emotive subject. Our fertility detox programme is designed to enhance sperm health and enliven the female reproductive system and prepare it for carrying through a successful pregnancy."

We are happy to work with you beyond the retreat week to provide continued follow-on support programme post detox.

Our Specialised fertility week is designed to increase your awareness about exposure to toxins of all types, whether they be environmental or via food and water. We will be discussing your individual health issues and giving advice on diet, lifestyle and nutrient intake with an individually designed nutritional programme going forward after the retreat.
