Wurn Technique-Manhatten Office
I just read this article and went to the website. Once there I saw there was an office in Manhatten so I thought I would share with you ladies.
A new infertility treatment, shown to be effective without drugs or surgery, is now available in the Western US. The therapy, known as the Wurn Technique® (patent pending), is a manual physical therapy, similar to massage.
Previously available only in the Eastern U.S., the therapy has been used as an adjunct to traditional infertility treatments for several years. It is now being offered at Clear Passage Therapies® in Orange County, California, between Los Angeles and San Diego. (See http://www.clearpassage.com). The new clinic will provide a valuable service for the nearly one in six couples throughout the Western US who are struggling with infertility.
Medical studies published in “Medscape General Medicine, Ob/Gyn & Women's Health” (6/04) show the therapy significantly increased pregnancy rates for women diagnosed infertile. Study participants who received therapy before undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) saw pregnancy rates climb to 67%, far above the 41% national average for IVF, as reported by the US Centers for Disease Control. “I am always looking for new approaches to benefit my patients' goals of becoming parents,” said Brian Acacio, MD, Medical Director of Sher Institute for Reproductive Medicine, Los Angeles. “This preliminary research shows improvement with this therapy. While additional studies need to be conducted, this is very exciting.”
In a related study, 71% of infertile women conceived naturally after therapy. "The therapy appears to facilitate fertility in women with a wide array of unexplained or adhesion-related infertility,” said Richard King, MD, an independent gynecologist and research physician. “Prior to receiving the therapy, patients in the natural therapy study reported infection, surgery, endometriosis, hormonal issues, unexplained infertility, and even blocked fallopian tubes. Most became pregnant naturally and delivered babies following therapy.” Women in both studies averaged 5 years of infertility.
No drugs or surgery are used with the therapy and side effects are generally positive. A third study published in Medscape (12/04) reported the therapy's effectiveness in reducing intercourse pain and increasing sexual function in areas measurable by science, including desire [libido] and ******.
“I am pleased to offer this new therapy on the West Coast,” said Mary Cox, PT, Director of the Newport Beach clinic. “I look forward to working with women and their physicians to resolve pelvic pain, and to improve success rates for infertility patients.”
Clear Passage is accepting patients for treatment and offering phone consultations (at no charge) toll free at 1-866-BABYHERE (1-866-222-9437). Clinics are currently located in Florida, Iowa, California and New York with plans to open in Arizona later this year. More information is available at http://www.clearpassage.com.
