Welcome to a clinic that puts you first.

What We Support
Clients come to us for many reasons, physical, emotional and hormonal, and often stay with us long-term because of how we listen, respond and evolve with them.
-
We provide tailored support across the entire reproductive health journey — from natural fertility and IVF support, to pregnancy care, perimenopause and postpartum recovery. This is an area we’re trusted in by midwives, doulas, GPs and allied professionals throughout Melbourne.
-
We regularly support people experiencing anxiety, insomnia, burnout and nervous system dysregulation. Our treatments integrate mind and body, helping clients find calm and balance in ways that are practical, not prescriptive.
-
Whether you’re managing shoulder tension, back pain or chronic injury, our team provides integrated treatment through osteopathy and acupuncture, easing discomfort and improving movement with care that’s both informed and intuitive.
-
We work with many parents and children, supporting postpartum recovery, emotional wellbeing and overall family health. Our space is calm, welcoming and designed to hold people through different life stages with respect and care.
Rooted in Care, Backed by Experience
This clinic started nearly 20 years ago with a clear vision:
To offer genuine, results-based healthcare grounded in the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine and delivered with warmth, time and attention.
Over the years, we’ve grown into a calm and collaborative space, with a team of experienced practitioners who value your story, your comfort and your outcomes.
Located just upstairs at 190 Bay Street, our clinic has become a trusted part of the Port Melbourne community — often found through word-of-mouth, long-term referrals and people who simply know and recommend the quality of our care.
