Vancouver, BC, April 16-20, 2020
Why this conference is so important
You know the story.
It’s one that pulls at your heartstring each time you see a couple that is struggling to conceive. Couples and families that have given everything they have for a chance to have a baby of their own.
Mothers & fathers-to-be that have had to endure the loss of a pregnancy…
The healing profession is facing an epidemic as more and more couples search for solutions and look to integrative approaches to contraception, sustained pregnancy and, ultimately, the successful delivery of a healthy baby.
Their stories are why we continue to push ourselves to find new solutions and engage in the research that is being done around infertility. It is why we exist.
As the world’s largest conference focused solely on integrative reproductive health, the international Integrative Fertility Symposium (IFS) brings together world-renowned speakers in the fields of naturopathic medicine, acupuncture, reproductive endocrinology and reproductive urology.
With three tracks - including one designed specifically for naturopathic doctors - IFS 2020 is your chance to learn from leading practitioners such as Doctors Jacyln Chasse, Joseph Pizzorno, Leah Hechtman, Robyn Murphy, Carrie Jones, Paul Magarelli, and many others.
You owe it to your patients to provide them with the best options and treatments when it comes to their fertility.
