At Nava Health, we believe a healthy pregnancy begins long before a positive test. It starts with a conscious, well-supported path to conception, one that nurtures the mind and body to prepare for the profound journey ahead.
Our approach is rooted in integrative and preventive medicine, empowering individuals to optimize their health for fertility, a smoother pregnancy, and a supported postpartum experience.
But what does that truly mean, and why is it so crucial?
The Road to Parenthood: Unique Challenges and Opportunities
The journey to motherhood is often marked by a wide array of experiences. For many, it’s filled with hope, excitement, and anticipation. Yet, for some, it comes with its own set of challenges. Conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, thyroid imbalances, chronic inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies can pose roadblocks.
These conditions don’t only affect women; male partners, too, may face fertility-related issues linked to hormonal imbalances and nutritional deficits.
This is where Nava Health’s integrative approach to fertility care becomes invaluable. Rather than focusing solely on treating symptoms, we delve deeper to understand and address the root causes that might be impacting fertility.
Our team of skilled functional practitioners and modality experts work together to offer support that transcends conventional methods.
A Holistic Foundation for Fertility and Pregnancy
When trying to conceive, many people seek quick fixes or isolated solutions. At Nava Health, we see the bigger picture. We believe that true fertility support requires building a strong health foundation through a comprehensive, personalized approach.
This approach incorporates a spectrum of services to create an optimal health status. Services can include hormone balance, clinical nutrition counseling, gut health, stress management, and more.
Our specialized care includes:
- Comprehensive diagnostic testing to identify hormonal imbalances and deficiencies.
- Functional nutrition guidance and targeted supplementation are designed to boost nutrient levels critical for fertility.
- Acupuncture and massage therapy promote relaxation and circulation, which can naturally support reproductive health.
- IV Micronutrient Therapy and IV NAD+ to replenish vital nutrients and support cellular health.
For those who have experienced difficulties with conception or are just beginning to explore their fertility journey, these integrative measures create a supportive environment for success.
Nurturing Your Pregnancy: Maternity Support with a Preventive Edge
Once pregnancy is achieved, nurturing the mother’s health becomes the center of our focus. Our integrative approach doesn’t stop at conception; it continues throughout the pregnancy.
We understand that expectant mothers need more than just basic prenatal vitamins and check-ins; they need comprehensive care that addresses their entire well-being.
Our maternity support services aim to:
- Optimize clinical nutrition for both the mother and developing baby, assisting in the management of common issues like nausea, fatigue, and heartburn.
- Support the immune system, which can become vulnerable during pregnancy.
- Promote restorative sleep, recognizing how vital it is for both physical and mental health.
These practices create a nurturing atmosphere for the baby’s development and the mother’s well-being.
The Often Overlooked: Postpartum Support
While the postpartum period is frequently focused on the newborn, a mother’s recovery is equally significant. Physical recovery and mental well-being are central to how a mother adapts to the demands of new parenthood.
At Nava Health, our integrative postpartum support includes:
- Nutrition guidance to help the body recover and support mental health.
- Healthy sleep supports combatting exhaustion and promotes well-being.
The goal is to provide mothers with the tools and support they need to feel replenished and capable as they care for their newborns.
