My work´s objectives:
» to provide direct support and assistance to women
with difficulties to conceive and to carry the child to term
or to those only considering to start a family. The
assistance is provided in several forms: personal or e-mail
consultations, which are provided free of charge (contact
the Maternal Hope foundation
or me directly), written
materials (books and publications
Reproductive health),
websites (Maternal Hope foundation,
website about the Mojzis Method). We have also initiated
development of a list of addresses of physiotherapists
trained in the Mojzis method - see the website of the
Organon pharmaceutical company
Organon.
» to provide the general public with information about prevention
of fertility disorders and about the possibilities to
resolve the situation. Lack of understanding and sensitivity
of the people around can be very often a very traumatic
experience. I have been also involved in creation of two TV
documentaries – Kočárky bez dětí (Prams with No Children) (documentary
cycle Bleděmodrý svět, on air for the first time on 29 April
2001 on the Czech TV channel ČT2) and Na cestě za dítětem
(On the Way to the Child) (documentary cycle Rodinné
křižovatky, on air for the first time on 28 November 2006 on
the Czech TV channel ČT2). Another regular activity is the
organization of the annual
Day of Reproductive Health.
