Services
Acupuncture
Our acupuncture treatments use fine needles to stimulate specific points for pain relief and systemic balance. This ancient practice effectively addresses musculoskeletal issues, migraines, and stress-related conditions. Patients receive personalised treatment plans developed by CMBA-registered practitioners with over a decade of clinical experience.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy creates therapeutic suction to relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Particularly effective for respiratory conditions and chronic pain, our practitioners apply this technique with precision honed through years of training. Sessions target back, neck, and shoulder discomfort while promoting overall wellness.
Herbal Medicine
Traditional Chinese herbal formulations complement our clinical treatments using premium ingredients like reishi and ginseng. Our practitioners prescribe customised herbal teas and capsules for internal medicine applications. These time-tested remedies address digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, and immune support through natural means.
Facial Acupuncture
Specialised facial acupuncture treatments address skin health and rejuvenation. This non-invasive approach improves circulation and collagen production for natural anti-ageing benefits. Our practitioners combine this technique with holistic wellness strategies to enhance overall vitality and appearance.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion applies controlled heat to acupuncture points using mugwort herb. This warming technique enhances circulation and alleviates chronic pain conditions. Our practitioners utilise this method to treat arthritis, digestive disorders, and women's health concerns with careful temperature regulation for patient comfort.

Shane saved our vacation. I sprained my foot, ankle and knee on Rottnest Island on the 3rd day of a 2 week vacation in WA. I could only walk without severe pain by not bending my knee or ankle. After 1 treatment by Shane I was able to walk and had no further trouble with the knee or ankle for the duration of the vacation. Lynn Logen, from USA.
