Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Consultation in Melbourne
Personalised Healing with Acuvia Acupuncture Clinic
At Acuvia Acupuncture Clinic, we offer comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) consultations to support your long-term health and restore harmony in your body and mind. Whether you’re navigating a chronic condition, dealing with stress, or seeking a more balanced lifestyle, TCM offers natural, holistic solutions tailored to your individual needs.
TCM is more than a treatment—it’s a philosophy of healing. By looking at your body as an interconnected system, TCM helps uncover the root causes of illness, not just the symptoms. Our consultations are detailed, compassionate, and designed to give you tools to feel better and stay well.
What Is Traditional Chinese Medicine?
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a 2,000-year-old system of healthcare that views health as the result of balanced energy (Qi), blood, and body fluids circulating through the body’s meridians (energy channels). When this balance is disrupted—due to stress, poor diet, trauma, or other lifestyle factors-illness or discomfort can arise.
Rather than isolating the condition, TCM treats the person as a whole. The aim is to correct underlying imbalances and restore the body’s ability to heal itself. Treatments are gentle, safe, and completely individualised.
What Happens During a TCM Consultation?
Each consultation at Acuvia is carefully structured to help us understand your body’s internal patterns and craft a treatment plan that’s unique to you.
1.Detailed Health Assessment
We start with an in-depth discussion about your main health concerns and medical history. This includes:
-
- Your primary symptoms
- Sleep quality and emotional health
- Digestion and bowel habits
- Menstrual health (if applicable)
- Diet and physical activity
- Stress levels and lifestyle factors
This conversation is the foundation of a well-rounded diagnosis. We take the time to listen—nothing is rushed, and all details are considered.
2.Pulse and Tongue Diagnosis
These ancient diagnostic tools are a vital part of TCM:
-
- Pulse Diagnosis: We examine the strength, rhythm, and quality of your pulse on both wrists. Each position corresponds to different organs and systems in your body, offering insight into internal imbalances.
- Tongue Diagnosis: The tongue’s colour, shape, coating, and texture reveal valuable information about your digestive system, fluid balance, and overall vitality.
These tools allow us to detect subtle patterns that might not be visible through conventional testing.
3.Diet and Lifestyle Assessment
TCM recognises that food, stress, sleep, and movement directly impact health. During your consultation, we’ll explore:
-
- Your eating habits and food sensitivities
- Daily routines and energy fluctuations
- Work-life balance and emotional regulation
- Exposure to environmental stressors
You’ll receive practical, realistic lifestyle recommendations based on your constitution and diagnosis—no one-size-fits-all plans here. Small changes can have a big impact when they align with your body’s needs.
4.Personalised Treatment Plan — With Treatment Included
Once your diagnosis is complete, your practitioner will create a personalised treatment plan and begin your first treatment within the same session. This may include:
-
- Acupuncture: Fine needles gently inserted at specific points to balance Qi and support healing
- Cupping Therapy: Suction cups used to relieve muscular tension and improve circulation
- Chinese Herbal Medicine: Custom formulas in granule or pill form, tailored to your diagnosis
- Gua Sha or Moxibustion: Techniques to release stagnation, promote warmth, and ease pain
- Breathwork or self-care guidance: Where needed to support emotional balance and nervous system regulation
Each plan is flexible and evolves as your body responds to treatment.
