72: Herbalism for Fertility for Women and Men with Liane Moccia

“It’s important to take a holistic approach to a person’s fertility.” – Liane MocciaOur clients’ fertility journeys are about much more than getting pregnant. They’re navigating stress, nervous system imbalances, environmental toxins, and often a healthcare system that doesn’t consider these factors. On top of that, many times the focus is solely on the female partner, despite the fact that male fertility plays a significant role in pregnancy success and healthy outcomes.As functional and integrative health and wellness practitioners, we have the opportunity to support our clients with a broader range of tools to not only help them conceive but also have a healthy pregnancy, an easier delivery, and a smooth postpartum recovery period.Today, I’m joined by Liane Moccia, a Registered Clinical Herbalist who specializes in fertility and preconception planning. Herbalism is a valuable and accessible tool that complements nutrition and lifestyle medicine, taking their effectiveness to the next level. Liane works with clients to combine herbs, nutrition, and lifestyle changes with a clear plan to help optimize their fertility.In this conversation, Liane and I discuss how to use herbs to support menstrual health and optimize fertility for both partners, what it looks like to nurture clients through pregnancy and postpartum, insights on male factor infertility, how to integrate herbal recommendations safely, why personalizing protocols is key to success, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let’s innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/herbalism-for-fertility-for-women-and-men-with-liane-moccia/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).
