Acupuncture

Acupuncture combines traditional Chinese techniques with modern anatomical knowledge to treat chronic pain, stress, and systemic imbalances. Fine needles stimulate specific points to enhance energy flow and promote natural healing. Our practitioners tailor sessions to address individual health goals, from musculoskeletal recovery to emotional wellbeing, using evidence-based protocols validated through decades of clinical practice.

Chinese Herbal Medicine

Customised herbal formulations complement acupuncture treatments, targeting conditions like digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and immune support. We use high-quality, ethically sourced ingredients aligned with traditional prescriptions while incorporating contemporary pharmacological insights. Each formula is adjusted to the patient's constitution and progress, ensuring synergistic effects with other therapies.

Stress Management

Our stress management programs integrate acupuncture, aromatherapy, and lifestyle counselling to address modern-day anxiety and burnout. Treatments focus on regulating the nervous system through specific point selections and calming essential oil blends. Patients receive practical tools for maintaining emotional balance between sessions, supported by our practitioners' expertise in mind-body medicine.

Fertility Support

Fertility acupuncture protocols enhance reproductive health by improving hormonal regulation and uterine blood flow. Treatments align with menstrual cycles and assisted reproduction timelines, supporting both natural conception and IVF outcomes. Our approach combines traditional point prescriptions with research-backed timing strategies to optimise conception chances.

Pain Relief

Specialised pain management addresses conditions like migraines, sciatica, and joint inflammation through acupuncture and myofascial trigger point therapy. Treatments target both immediate symptom relief and long-term structural correction using biomechanical assessments. Our practitioners integrate Western pain science with traditional meridian theory to create comprehensive, lasting solutions for chronic discomfort.

Su was highly recommended by a friend . Id never had acupuncture before and a little hesitant . I was welcomed with open arms and Su did a thorough consultation on my history and what areas of my body to focus treatment on . I saw Su originally about a rolled ankle , headaches and general wellness . After the first session , the pain in my ankle was reduced , I havent had a headache since and Im sleeping better . The surprise take away was my mental health has improved the results speak for themselves .. highly recommended .

I've been to Dan at New Farm Acupuncture a few times now and every time I leave I'm amazed at the work he does and how well he can understand the point of pain I have and how to get free them up. I've dealt with severe back pain for the last 6 years and Dan has helped so many times with the pain and getting me back to almost pain free. I cannot recommend them enough

By far the best acupuncture and natural therapies practice in Brisbane! Su has helped with painful physical issues like arthritis affected joints (knee and shoulder) but also has helped with sleeping and stress levels. It is a very welcoming and professional environment, I always walk out feeling so much better! Highly recommend.

I suffer from TMJ and had an immense about of pain with headaches. I went to see Dan and what can I say - I was out of pain almost instantly. Dan is very knowledgeable and was able to relieve my pain when nothing else had worked. Im looking forward to continue seeing Dan for an overall holistic approach to my health.

I've been seeing Su & Dan for acupuncture now for 18 months. Every time I leave a session I walk out feeling a positive difference in my overall posture. Their practice set up is very chilled and calming. Looking forward to my next session.

Hey Dan,
Thanks for your treatment over the past week ... I thought that you may not get updated on the difference you make post treatment so I wanted to let you know ... I didn't think I would have been able to play but after your treatment and advice I was able to play my two games of futsal as normal and ended up scoring 8 goals ... My leg is feeling much better. Thank you.
