We've worked with couples at all stages of their fertility journey for over a decade, working with couples who are wanting to conceive naturally, and those who are undergoing IVF treatment.
We believe the best outcomes are achieved when both you and your partner are on the journey together. Fertility problems can put enormous strain on a relationship, and working together as a team in this process can help to strengthen your relationship rather than it be a source of stress and pressure on your relationship.
How often do we stop to think - were periods meant to be this painful? Was menopause meant to be this unbearable? Do I have to just accept that I get thrush after taking antibiotics? These problems and many others are definitely common, as natural health practitioners we think it's important to make the distinction between normal and common. We definitely don't think you should accept an ongoing health issue just because it's common.
We are passionate about helping you to turn your health around so you can live a life full of energy and free of the problems of hormonal imbalance.
The youngest members of our families are the most sensitive to falling unwell in rapid and dramatic ways. Thankfully, they are also prone to recovering in an equally rapid fashion. Because of their responsiveness, children generally require a lot less intervention than adults. Our practitioners have experience in working with children of all ages, from just a few days after birth, and throughout infancy and childhood.
Imagine how it would feel for your entire body relaxed, stress free and pain free. You can be by using acupuncture. During your treatment very fine needles are gently insert into your body, then you can relax, close your eyes, meditate or sleep during your treatment as the acupuncture takes effect.

Moxibustion, is the burning of a Chinese herb Mugwort over an acupoint. The loose herb, is sometimes shaped into thin threads or small pyramids and placed directly on the skin, or on top of a slice of ginger, or on top of an acupuncture needle. The burning herb creates a pleasant warming sensation, and is removed before becoming too hot for the patient.
Cupping is one of two physical methods used in Chinese Medicine to release pathogenic "evil qi" via the skin. It is particularly useful for the treatment of colds and flu, for releasing stiff muscles, and for enhancing circulation in the entire body.
Chinese Herbal medicine has played a central role in the health system in China for thousands of years. Herbs form an important part of many treatment protocols designed in our clinic, and can help to extend the effects of an acupuncture treatment.
Going beyond the basics of vitamins and minerals, Chinese medicine nutrition is the prescription of food based cures for health conditions.
