Acupuncturist, Herbal Medicine, Cupping Therapy, Gua Sha, Dietary Therapy
My passion for healing began in childhood and grew as I witnessed the profound impact of compassionate care during my family’s health challenges. These experiences stayed with me, even as I pursued a career in IT. However, I always felt a deeper calling to help others in a more meaningful way. Becoming a parent gave me the opportunity to reflect and follow my true passion, leading me to Chinese Medicine—a holistic practice that integrates the body, mind, and spirit to restore balance and vitality.
At Neurohealth Wellness, I specialise in creating personalised treatments to address a wide range of concerns, including musculoskeletal issues, digestive problems, stress, and pain management. My approach goes beyond symptom relief. I aim to uncover the root causes of imbalance and empower you to take charge of your health. I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where you feel truly heard and cared for.
My Approach
Chinese Medicine offers a variety of time-tested techniques to restore harmony and promote healing. I combine these modalities to suit your individual needs, including:
Acupuncture: The gentle and precise placement of ultra-fine needles to stimulate energy flow, relieve pain, reduce stress, and enhance overall wellbeing. Many patients find it deeply relaxing, often falling asleep during treatment.
Herbal Medicine: Customised remedies made from natural ingredients like plants and minerals to support energy, digestion, and immune health.
Cupping Therapy: A soothing technique using gentle suction to release muscle tension, improve circulation, and aid recovery. It feels similar to a deep tissue massage and leaves you feeling refreshed.
Gua Sha: A traditional scraping method that promotes circulation, reduces inflammation, and eases muscle tension or headaches, leaving you feeling lighter and more relaxed.
Dietary Therapy: Personalised advice on food choices based on their energetic properties, helping you optimise digestion, energy, and overall health.
Chinese Medicine’s timeless wisdom offers a holistic, practical approach to modern health challenges. It’s an honour to help my patients rediscover balance, vitality, and what it truly means to feel their best.
Let’s work together to restore balance and vitality to your life.
