ACUPUNCTURE & chinese medicine
-
55mins - $130
This is the initial session where we talk about everything. Your health history up to this point, your goals and expectations around treatment, what you’ve already tried, what medications and supplements you’re taking. You also receive an acupuncture treatment and perhaps a Chinese herbal recommendation if you’re wanting herbs as well (highly recommended).
-
45mins - $100
A much simpler session as we’ve done the heavy lifting in the initial. We do a check in eg how are your current symptoms, what’s changed, what hasn’t and then provide another acupuncture session. Herbs and supplements may be tweaked if required.
nutritional medicine
-
40min - $130
This is the initial session where we talk about everything. Your health history up to this point, your goals and expectations around treatment, what you’ve already tried, what medications and supplements you’re taking. Copies of any recent blood tests can also be helpful.
You’ll receive an email approx 3 days after your appointment with you nutritional guidelines, any supplement prescriptions plus a 1 week meal plan to help guide you. This can either be provided in a structured weekly plan (breakfast, lunch dinners and snacks) or just as recipes to use as you like.
-
25min - $95
Again, very similar to initial consult but the conversation is much shorter. We check in to see how you’re progressing, what additional support you might need and provide another 1 week meal plan if required.

-
1.5hours - $240
Combining the best of both worlds. Includes both the initial acupuncture and nutritional medicine consultation in one session.
-
1hour 15min - $150
Again, combines the acupuncture and nutritional medicine follow up styles.

Absolutely. Integrating acupuncture and nutritional medicine can provide a holistic approach to women's health. Acupuncture addresses the energetic aspect of well-being, while nutritional medicine ensures that the body receives the necessary nutrients for optimal function. Together, they can enhance the effectiveness of treatment and support overall health.

Yes, acupuncture is generally considered safe during pregnancy when performed by a qualified practitioner. It can help manage common pregnancy discomforts such as nausea, back pain, and fatigue. However, it's important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new treatments during pregnancy.

The number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and the specific health concern. Acupuncture is often a cumulative process, and some people may experience improvements after just a few sessions, while others may require more. Your practitioner will discuss a personalized treatment plan based on your unique needs.
