HI, I’M RACHEL

I’m an AHPRA registered acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner with a passion for women’s health and fertility. I received my Bachelor of Health Science and Bachelor of Chinese Medicine through Endeavour College of Natural Health on the Gold Coast and have been in private practice now for several years. I also have a background in Remedial Massage and still like to include this type of body work into my treatments. I am a proud member of ATMS.

I'm a Taurus, notoriously stubborn but loyal as they come. I love nature and everything outdoors but am not ashamed to say I also like the finer things in life and a little sprinkle of luxury.

I'm from everywhere, I have lived in cities, country towns, by the beach, in the mountains and even in the Middle East but now I live on the gorgeous Goldie with my partner in shine and many, many, many plant babies.

Before becoming an acupuncturist, I studied art. I'm not much of a painter but I really love sewing and working with wood and metal, so my art pieces were always a little eccentric! Like me I guess!

I have an eclectic music taste, spanning decades and ranging from blues to heavy metal and everything in between. My prized possessions are my vinyl record collection and my vintage phonograph.

I'm a water baby! I can't be far from the ocean but I'm partial to some rainforest immersion therapy too from time to time; but mostly you’ll find me sporting sandy toes and salty hair.

I am a born healer - When I was a child, I wanted to be a veterinarian and you’d often find me playing healer to my stuffed animals or mixing make-believe potions out of an assortment of flowers and leaves. It’s only natural that I fell into a career of natural medicine. I look forward to meeting you and guiding you on your health journey!
