Hello I’m Sandy, your practitioner.
A little about me…
I began my career in health care over 20 years ago as a nurse. I have always enjoyed working in healthcare. I worked in aged care, public hospitals, community nursing & day surgery.
In my 20’s I discovered Chinese medicine because my GP at the time was also a Chinese medicine practitioner & she helped me with some ongoing health issues. This was the first spark of interest for me in Chinese medicine & I love it even more after 12 years as a practitioner.
I don’t consider my work to be “Alternative Medicine”. I believe that our healthcare system will benefit greatly if all modalities can work together in an integrative healthcare setting to achieve the best possible outcomes for patients.
My Experience…
I have gained a lot of experience working with fertility, IVF support & pregnancy over the 12 years in my clinical practice. I have completed extra study (& continue to do so) in this field so that I can best support women & their partners in their journey to become parents.
My Education…
I am a qualified, university trained Chinese Medicine Practitioner with a Bachelor of Health Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine from The University of Technology Sydney.
I have national registration with the Chinese Medicine Board of Australia and I am an accredited member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS)
Personal life journey so far….
I have practiced meditation for over 25 years & I enjoy a daily spiritual practice of mindfulness & gratitude. I appreciate balance in all things & I love the fact that Chinese Medicine encompasses this balance in its approach to treatment and preventative health care.
I look forward to seeing you in my clinic in Corrimal, Wollongong.
