All About Me
My Journey
Kia ora, I'm an Acupuncturist who's been in practice since completing my Bachelor of Health Science (Acupuncture) in Wellington, NZ in 2020.
I decided to become an Acupuncturist after experiencing my own health issues. Which were resolved with Acupuncture.
I've had a diverse life experience that includes raising three sons, working as a Teacher, and providing elderly care. I've had the pleasure of working in Acupuncture clinics in both Wellington and Nelson, where I've had the opportunity to get to know people and help them on their healing journeys. I've treated various issues such as shoulders, knees, backs, menopause, depression, anxiety, cancer recovery, and more.
My practice is all about empowering people to live healthier and more easeful painfree lives. I use Acupuncture, Tuina (massage), Moxabustion, and Cupping, incorporating both traditional Chinese and Japanese methods to achieve the best results.
If you're looking for a positive, caring Acupuncturist, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. I would love to help you restore and revitalize yourself.
