Set of 4 DVD's. With notes, the entire Eight Extras handbook, plus other useful readings.

This is part of Heather Bruce's current updated 2007 lecture series that covers advice for the treatment of apparent infertile couples in the modern Western context. This starts with all Gynecological and life hiccups, flowing into strategies to deal with the usual clinical situations that may arise from pregnancy and birthing.

The Role of Eight Extra Meridians in Women's Lives and Maternity is an update of the earlier (1993/94) works. By bringing these earlier works into the 21st century it is hoped that the interested practitioner sees the enormity of what is and has happened to our gene pool and how we must operate within today's milieu. It is a pre requisite to her Practical Fertility Solutions seminar and part of the Advanced Training for Infertility Specialization curriculum.
