⤏ A village for for busy women, tired mums, and mental health Women’s health, mental health + tired mums - I’ve got you.

They say it takes a village to raise a child, but in these modern times the truth is, it takes a village to support a mother (or mum-to-be), a woman, a carer, a busy woman. Fatigue and overwhelm seem to be constant companions nowadays, and while common, it doesn’t need to be like this. I offer Chinese Medicine, herbs + pins, mindful movement and chilled yoga + meditation to help women with busy lives find balance.

Mums. Carers. High-achievers. Women who hold everything together.

You kept going. You kept showing up. You said yes when you meant no. And your body absorbed every single bit of it.

Now you’re tired in a way that sleep doesn’t fix. Your cycle is irregular. Your digestion is off. You’re snapping at people you love. Running on empty and somehow still running.

This is what chronic stress does to a female body specifically. It suppresses progesterone. It dysregulates cortisol. It deprioritises every system that isn’t essential for immediate survival — including your reproductive health, your gut, your immune function.

YOU TURNED 40 & your hormones stopped playing by the old rules 🤦🏻‍♀️

The cycles that used to be predictable. The sleep that used to be easy. The weight that used to shift when you ate well. The mood that didn’t used to swing like this.

Perimenopause starts earlier than most people think — often mid-to-late 30s — and it’s one of the most under-recognised transitions in women’s health.

This isn’t decline. It’s a hormonal shift that your body is navigating, and it needs support — not just to be managed, but to be understood.

In clinic I work with women in peri who want to feel like themselves again. Or just get a good nights sleep again!!!

It doesn’t have to be this hard → Book in Bulli or Leichhardt. 📩

Ladies who’ve been told your reserve is low… listen up!

Some recent research on acupuncture & ovarian reserve is verrry exciting.

A 2023 meta-analysis - 13 trials, 787 women with low ovarian reserve + 12 weeks of acupuncture showed:

• AMH went up
• Amtrak follicle count went up
• FSH went down

Using acupuncture to wake up what’s already there? Turning up the heat on what you’ve already got? That’s the conversation.

Better signalling. Better circulation. Better conversation between your body’s systems.

From a Chinese medicine lens: Kidney nourishment, Blood flow to the ovaries, and getting your body OUT of stress physiology.

There’d definitely more to the story! 📩 DM me and let’s chat x

Ovaries + IVF ✨

Why have just one focus?
When I treat you through an IVF cycle, yes we’re going to look at ovaries, blood flow, eggs and cycles… but we’re also DEFINITELY going to be doing some nervous system support.

Equally as important!

Ready for some thorough care? 📩 DM and let’s get you sorted x

It’s a ride, alright.
One that’s easy to get caught up in.

So if I was to jump on again tmrw, I’d remember to take care (realllly good care) of me amongst everything.

You don’t need to be strong non stop. You need to be supported.

That’s the difference I offer in clinic. Alongside the increased blood flow, the cycle support and symptom management.

You’ve got this ladies! X

IVF checklist:
✔️ injections
✔️ scans
✔️ bloods

Missing:
❌ feeling calm
❌ sleeping properly
❌ not spiralling at 2am

Let’s fix that.

Send this to your pals doing IVF, the process doesn’t have to fee so overwhelming x 📩

Period pain is common.
Endo (which is next level) is so often brushed off and takes literally close to 10 years for diagnosis.

It’s not good enough.

That’s why I’m so excited to be bringing community acupuncture to the Illawarra for this exact reason.

Regular targeted sessions + a lower cost = less pain, less tension, more life.

Know someone who would benefit? Or maybe even yourself?

📩 DM “PERIOD” to join the waitlist x

Much like women’s health is a societal issue and much bigger than the individual, so too is this cost of living crisis.

I loved this quote from because again it speaks to what we’re all feeling.

The overwhelm.
The fear.
The mental gymnastics as we teeter to and fro the binfire of the world right now.

We simply can’t think our way through a lot of it, but we can hold ourselves a container to get through it.

We can now that we don’t have to do it alone.

We can be supported through it, and we can fortify our nervous system.

I’m here when you need xo

Be honest. Do you care of yourself like you do others?

Most of us are in the trenches of life, working, perhaps raising families or working on relationships… and we always promise to take care of ourselves ‘later’.

I get it. I see you. I struggle like you.

But real talk:
Later = burnout
Later = hormone chaos
Later = your body forcing you to stop.

So here’s your reminder: book the thing (for you). Eat the meal (while it’s hot). And lie down before your body makes you.
