Meet Dr Kylie Skillen
Doctor of Acupuncture (BHsc)

Kylie’s complementary medicine journey started 30 years ago when her finance job sent her on a health retreat where she experienced a wide range of natural therapies. After this life changing experience, she began to study anything to do with natural medicine, with qualifications in massage, acupuncture, yoga teaching and yoga therapy. She was drawn to acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine after experiencing its positive effects with her own health and found it supported her body’s healing capacity and increased mental/physical well-being. Kylie’s acupuncture treatments are tailored to the individual and may include needling, cupping, moxibustion, Chinese herbal formulas, breath work and stretches based on your needs. Her special interests include acupuncture for fertility (pre-conception, IVF/IUI support); menopause and pregnancy related symptoms; stress and emotional issues (anxiety/depression); autoimmune disorders and pain management (acute & chronic). She is a mother, book reader, food lover and dog mum who enjoys wide open spaces on her rural property. Education and Certifications
Kylie has a Bachelor of Health Science (Acupuncture), is an accredited member of the Australian Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Association (AACMA), and is a registered practitioner under the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Authority (AHPRA).

🎉 Mt Pleasant Acupuncture turns TWO! 🎉
It feels like just yesterday we set out with a big dream of creating our own clinic and now here we are, celebrating 2 full, wonderful years.

Like any small business owner will tell you, the days are long and free time is rare, but I truly love what I do and am so grateful for the incredible support from all our patients across both clinics💛

A special shoutout to Mr. Mt Pleasant Acupuncture - for the washing, cleaning, mowing, IT support, meal prep (and the 100000 other things in between). I couldn’t do it without you 💖

Thank you to all my treasured clients and supporters – here’s to another year of helping our community feel their best! ✨

The final day of Women's Health Week brings our focus to the mind with the theme "Be Kind to your Mind". With our busy lives, women's mental health is often pushed aside when caring for others. Making time for yourself and finding tools that support your mental health can help create a healthy balance. If you're not sure where to start, check out this link:

Today marks the beginning of Women's Health Week with this year's theme is "Say yes to you".

Women often put their health at the end of a long list of responsibilities so this is a gentle reminder to prioritise ourselves - bringing us to today's theme: Every Check Matters!

🤰 Labour Preparation Support

The final weeks of pregnancy can bring a mix of excitement and nerves as you prepare to meet your baby. From 38 weeks, Dr Kylie offers acupuncture sessions to support your body as it prepares for birth.

Research suggests acupuncture may support cervical ripening, so sessions at this stage focus on points traditionally used to encourage relaxation, soften the cervix, and calm the mind.

✨ Bonus for partners: Dr Kylie also provides birth partner education—teaching acupressure points that can be used during labour for comfort and support.

Care is always personalised and aligned with your broader birth plan and medical care.

📚 Ref: Smith CA, Armour M, Dahlen HG. Acupuncture or acupressure for induction of labour.
