Our Treatments
With a background in Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine and Sports Therapy, On Point Natural Medicine will assess and diagnose your condition before deciding the most effective treatment for the best results and recovery.
Acupuncture – Classical/Modern
The insertion of thin, sterile, single-use steel needles into precise points and areas of the body, known as ‘acupuncture points’.
On Point Natural Medicine uses three acupuncture techniques –
Tung and Tan, a classical Chinese style.
Motor Point and Dry Needling, a modern style treating musculoskeletal conditions.
Electro – Acupuncture, a modern method combining needling with electro currents.
Soft Tissue Therapy
Soft Tissue Therapy Treatments
In some cases, we use these methods to assist with your Acupuncture treatment. Soft tissue therapy is not offered as a stand-alone treatment.
Soft Tissue Therapy involves creating tension in a specific direction on the skin and passively moving the body in different ways to help improve muscle, nerves, joint function and reduce pain.
Diet and Lifestyle
At On Point Natural Medicine, we believe Chinese Medicine provides a unique understanding of nutrition and how to eat well for a healthy life.
We share this knowledge with you during your treatments. This includes patient specific foods to avoid or add to your diet, and life style practices to help you achieve optimal health.
Pulse Diagnosis & Herbal Medicine
Specialised and customised individual tailored treatments
Every patient at On Point Natural Medicine is assessed individually and no two cases are treated the same. We use a very unique method of pulse diagnosis to determine the cause of your symptoms and develop your herbal prescription. This diagnostic skill is incredibly accurate. Our herbs are of the highest quality, safe and Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved.
