World Leaders in Maternity Natural Health soon to
speak at 22 Mar Auckland
Symposium
IIMHCO (Intl Integrative
Maternity HealthCare Org) are soon to host world leaders in
“Perinatal Integrative Medicine” (holistic
maternal/newborn health & wellness) who will be keynote
speaking at the upcoming Maternity Natural Health Symposium
on 22nd March at the Novotel Ellerslie in Auckland – and
unusual for such a health summit, the Public are also
welcome to attend.
Just as consumers are demanding
more holistic integrated healthcare for their general
wellness, so too are woman, globally, demanding a less
medicalized, and overall safer maternity experience for both
themselves and their baby, devoid of the common unnecessary
intervention-resulting horrific levels of traumatic and
dramatic instrumental and surgical emergency deliveries.
Well gone are the days of the “Doctor being God”, and
instead today’s millennial mothers-to-be are educated,
articulate and able to “google anything” they wish to
question – however the internet can also be a dangerous
place to seek obstetric advice from mostly Forum
contributors lacking in formal Health Professional
qualifications.
It is unknown to most Kiwis that NZ
is globally regarded as having some of the very best
maternity healthcare available on the planet. With our
unique continuity-of-care LMC (Lead Maternity Carer) system,
NZ is one of the only countries in the world that fulfils
the World Health Organization’s criteria of best maternity
care. Consequently, around the world it is not seen as
surprising for such an event to be hosted on our Shores.
Specifics on the upcoming IIMHCO symposium on Maternity
Integrative Health:
• This cross-discipline
congress is attracting both Birth Practitioners (eg
Obstetricians, Midwifes, Doulas, etc) and Natural Health
Practitioners specializing in Maternal/Neonatal well-being
(eg Medical herbalists, Acupuncturists, Naturopaths,
Osteopaths, etc).
• Flying into NZ to speak
include keynotes Dr Riccardo Jones from Brazil (arguably the
world’s leading Homeopathic Obstetrician), and Elizabeth
Davis from the USA (a ‘goddess’ of midwifery academic
education), along with many other international and local
specialist Experts.
• The gap of communication
has always wide between academic research and
public knowledge. This event is a rare opportunity
for the Public to get direct access to information known by
the leading experts in many different maternity therapeutic
modalities.
Kiwi midwife and best-selling maternity
author Kathy Fray comments “Combining NZ’s
internationally admired midwifery-led maternity healthcare
system, with our country’s ‘clean green 100%-Pure’
branding, plus our nation’s inherent love of holistic
natural healthcare wellness (our rate of Health Shops per
capita is very high in the Western world), along with our
governmental legislation to protect Rongoā Māori
traditional healing, then altogether it is no surprise NZ is
pioneering the way internationally as thought-leaders on the
world stage of Maternity Integrative HealthCare.”
If expectant mothers-to-be want to hear first-hand from
some of the best of the best Experts in
maternity natural health and wellness, then this is the
leading event not to be missed. [Journalist reporters
