16 Steps to Help You Decide if Our Infertility Treatment is Right for You
By Jackie
When our blog first started in fall of 2009, I wrote a post entitled 8 Steps to Decide if Our Treatment is Right for You. While looking back over that post recently, I realized there was much more helpful information I could provide. There was so much, in fact, that I expanded it to 16 steps and packed this post full with relevant articles and links.
Whether you are trying to conceive or to find your way out of pain, I know it is difficult to choose a treatment option. The amount of choices can be overwhelming and it’s hard to know if a treatment is viable or if it will work for you. The 16 steps below are designed to help you learn more about us, our treatment, and decide if our treatment is right for you:
- Understand the foundation of our treatment: Adhesions. Adhesions are collagenous cross-links that form whenever you heal; they are what make up scar tissue. To learn more about how adhesions form and impair fertility, read our adhesions and fertility page or our blog post on How Adhesions Form and Impair Fertility in Women.
- Review your medical and personal history to see if you have experienced events that cause adhesion formation. Have you had an infection, inflammation, surgery, fall, car accident, or other event that causes adhesion formation? You can learn more about adhesions in your body by reading How do You Recognize Adhesions in Your Body? But don’t just take it from us! Check-out this article by Conceive that helps you determine if your body might have scar tissue that prevents you from getting pregnant.
- Explore how we address specific infertility conditions. If you are experiencing a particular type of infertility, you can read our pages specifically devoted to blocked fallopian tubes, advanced age, unexplained infertility, secondary infertility, and more. Unsure about what category you fall into? Try starting with our page that broadly discusses our treatment for female infertility.
- Learn how we started. How a treatment is created often says a great deal about the intent of its practitioners and the treatment itself. Learn about how Clear Passage started here.
- Discover our Treatment Philosophy. Our treatment philosophy varies greatly from what you may have experienced in the past. We believe in the importance of patient participation and intuition. To see if your expectations of health care align with our treatment philosophy, click here.
- Watch our video. If you are more of a visual learner, then our video is perfect for you. With visual explanations, patient interviews, and staff commentary, our video will help you learn more about us and our treatment.
- Read our patient testimonials. We have numerous stories and quotes from women who have struggled with many different types of infertility on our patient testimonial page. You can also search our blog for stories by women with different conditions. Some of our personal favorites include “Naturalist” Finds Success after Hormonal Infertility and Patient Highlight: Overcoming Infertility due to Endometriosis.
- Review our medical studies. See our medical studies page to read seven medical studies and abstracts that evaluate the success of our work. If you are wondering, “How many patients does this treatment actually help?” then our medical studies are a great place to find that answer!
- Enjoy a chapter of our new book. Our new book, Miracle Moms, Better Sex, Less Pain, contains over 19 chapters and 700 pages of educational material. Each chapter contains a thorough explanation of our therapy, patient stories, and informative images. You can read the table of contents and then email us and request a copy of an upcoming chapter.
- Discover our newsletters. Every quarter we release a newsletter filled with patient stories, explanations of our treatment, relevant articles, free e-chapters from our book, and much more. You can view our previous newsletters here and sign up to receive upcoming issues.
- Request more information. Is there more you would like to learn about? Email us and we will gladly mail you a guide to services and other helpful information.
- Ask our Experts. Have a specific question you would like answered by Belinda and Larry Wurn, the founders of CPT? Visit our Ask the Experts page and post your question.
- Give us a call! Want to know more about our treatment or statistics in an actual conversation? Call our staff at 352-336-1433. Our administrative staff can give you basic information about our treatment. If you want to understand how our treatment can specifically help you, move on to the next step.
- Speak with one of our physical therapists for free. After filling out a medical questionnaire online, you can schedule a free consultation with one of our therapists. Our therapists will discuss your condition with you and determine if treatment is appropriate. Why do we make you fill out a medical questionnaire first? We take a holistic approach to your health and believe that past events in distant areas of the body can have a lasting impact today. Furthermore, you may think that we accept everyone for treatment, but at Clear Passage Therapies our main concern is your health and certain conditions may make you inappropriate for treatment. To get started on your medical questionnaire, click here.
- Speak with a previous Clear Passage patient. After you send us your medical questionnaire, we can match you with a previous patient with a similar medical history. You can then email or call her with any questions.
- Take personal time for self-reflection and meditation. Choosing a medical treatment option is an important decision. We strongly believe in intuition and feel that you should listen to how your gut is guiding you . . . even if that means not coming to us. We want you to choose the best option for YOU.
