Naval cupping
The number one thing that must be done for all women and men planning to conceive is REMOVE THE COLD from the body that prevents blood flow from staying in the abdominal organs.
According to my colleague Heather Bruce, an Australian Acupuncturist, the late Dr. John Shen said that cold is stored indefinitely in the stomach, intestines and the uterus (prostate for men).
Removing cold from within the body (this restores yang) brings the person back to homeostasis. Cold d gets into our bodies from all the iced, cold, and chilled food and drinks we’ve consumed, the wet hair we did not dry after bathing, walking around barefoot on a cold day, past injuries, over using ice packs, previous traumas, birth traumas, emotional traumas, surgical births and the list goes on.
The navel is cupped with a large warmed glass cup, followed by a moxa & ginger technique. Both women and men benefit from improved digestive and creative (fertile) fire with navel cupping.
