About Me
I am a dedicated acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner, registered with AHPRA, having earned my Bachelor of Health Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the University of Technology, Sydney. My strong motivation and inspiration come from witnessing people recover through evidence-based TCM treatment. This passion stems from a profound love for continuous learning, personal growth, and using my knowledge to assist others. With several years of clinical experience, primarily gained at an academic Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic at UTS, I have provided over 170 acupuncture treatments and dispensed Chinese herbal remedies for 200 hours.
​
I am deeply committed to integrative health and medicine, firmly believing in the advantages of combining Western medicine and Chinese medicine to address diverse patient needs. Education is a cornerstone of my approach, as I strongly advocate for guiding patients through their health journeys to achieve optimal well-being. Specializing in pain management, women's health, gut health, and mental health, I delve into the complexities of various illnesses and explore how Chinese Medicine can be beneficial. Additionally, I have pursued further training in moxibustion, electroacupuncture, cupping, wet cupping, and cosmetic acupuncture, finding immense enjoyment in applying these modalities in my practice. Ensuring an open and comforting space is paramount to me, guaranteeing that all my patients receive high-quality care.

My Philosophy
In the practice of Chinese Medicine, it is of utmost importance to identify the underlying cause of a patient's disease. Each part of the body in Chinese Medicine symbolizes more than its physical function. Understanding the etiology of the disease is crucial as it provides insights into the prognosis and progression of the illness. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the dysfunction of Qi (energy), Blood, and JinYe (body fluid) in the internal organs is reflected in one's mental and emotional states. Conversely, emotional distress can also adversely affect the Qi, Blood, and JinYe of the internal organs.
​
Therefore, addressing the root cause of the disease is just as critical as treating its symptoms. TCM adopts a holistic approach to treat various diseases. Rather than solely focusing on eliminating the external symptoms (branches), TCM emphasizes simultaneous treatment of the root cause by harmonizing and strengthening the internal organs.
