Meet Victoria Gazzard

I am a Holistic Fertility Specialist covering the South West. I have been supporting fertility clients for over 10 years with my Holistic Fertility Support Programmes that incorporate; Reproductive Reflexology, Fertility Massage Therapy, Mindset / Mental Health Support and Fertility Coaching / Counselling.

I am particularly interested in the power of the mind / body connection and how our thoughts and emotions affect the physical health and wellbeing of ourselves and our offspring.

I am passionate about supporting couples together and individually, in preparation for pregnancy, parenthood and beyond.

As a dynamic, the relationship of the couple is foundation to everything and for the dynamic to support one another, both must prioritise looking after their own health and mental wellbeing first and foremost. This is often overlooked especially within male factor infertility and men going through fertility treatment.

I am a strong advocate for the importance of Preconception Care Planning to help reduce the need for expensive Assisted Fertility Techniques and treatment, but more importantly, to optimise the future physical and mental health / development of children.

It is my vision that Preconception Care Planning is normalised and well understood so that every couple wanting to start a family, knows and understands exactly what they can do to support themselves and each other before trying to conceive.

I am really excited about collaborating with Susan, creating this new course designed especially for couples.

Meet Susan Martin

I am a fertility acupuncturist with over 12 year’s clinical experience with clinics in Clevedon and Portishead.
I have a keen interest in acupuncture and IVF and I love to watch the evidence base for the benefits of acupuncture with fertility evolving. My dissertation at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM) in Reading was an investigation into the use of acupuncture before and after embryo transfer – a comparison between the Paulus protocol and individualised treatments.
Since completing my degree over 12 years ago, I have trained under Debra Betts- A lead obstetrician and maternity acupuncture mentor.
In 2017 I trained under Jani White- a lead fertility specialist on her foundation course Naturechild.
In 2018 I received Fertility support training with lead Fertility expert Naava Carmen
I believe in the importance importance of pre-conception care, how you can maximize your body’s capacity for normal conception and how to improve your chances with assisted conception
I can teach you the role that acupuncture can play in improving menstrual health and fertility and about the ways that acupuncture can be applied differently during the different phases of the menstrual cycle, and the powerful impact that acupuncture can have on fertility.
I have assisted couples in their unique fertility journeys and what I have seen there is very little support out there and can feel incredibly lonely and disheartening.
Patients deserve the whole treatment package: nutrition, vitamins, lifestyle advice, meditation and most importantly… support through a very emotive and difficult time.
We are social animals and collaboration between health professionals is key for an integrated approach when treating infertility issues.
This is why Victoria and myself, have decided to work together for an integrated approach to offer you a unique opportunity to support you on your individual journeys.

I encourage couples with fertility issues as this journey is a joint effort.

If more men were aware of this course the benefits are boundless and anyone fortunate to work with Victoria are guaranteed to be guided by a caring soul, full of wisdom and love. 

I don’t think we could have asked for a better mentor to guide us on this journey.
