Hi, I'm Suzie

I'm the sole practitioner here at Saint Kilda Acupuncture & Natural Medicine Clinic. 

​

I came to Oriental Medicine due to a series of ailments I had in my 20s that were resolved through the methods of acupuncture, Chinese & Ayurvedic herbal medicine & dietary therapy. 

​

I am particularly interested in lifestyle analysis. Adopting easily transmutable changes to your daily routine and 'food as medicine' to effect better health outcomes. As the Chinese Ancients say “when you have an ailment first you change your diet & lifestyle habits. If this does not work then you get acupuncture, if this does not work then you try Herbal medicine” (internal medicine as it’s known). I can help you with all three stages. 

​

I was mentored in acupuncture by Daniel WaIdman and learnt first hand his exquisite palpatory technique. Subsequently I use a variety of styles & forms including Kiiko Matsumoto Japanese protocol, Master Tung, Dr Tan, Mark Seem to name a few. I have an added interest in auricular therapy (ear acupuncture) which I often use as an adjunct to my treatments.
