Atemfokussierte Entspannungstechniken in der TCM-Behandlung des Kinderwunsches
摘要
Infertility treatment is associated with considerable multi-layered emotional and physical stress for the affected women. Slow breathing techniques during TCM treatment are a low-threshold, psychosomatic intervention to strengthen the self-regulatory abilities and coping mechanisms during infertility treatment and to increase the probability of having a child. The repeating nature of acupuncture appointments facilitates short and continuously motivating instructions. The integration of Slow breathing techniques in the treatment of infertility is highly supported by the role of the breath and the functional system ‘lung’ (o. pulmonalis, fei) in the concept of Chinese Medicine.
