The Healing Arts

Twelve paths to balance

Each treatment begins with listening — to your words, your pulse, your tongue — before a single needle is placed.

针灸01

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a gentle traditional body‑balancing therapy. We use ultra‑fine, sterile single‑use needles to lightly stimulate specific points on the body. It helps ease muscle tension, relieve physical discomfort, reduce stress and anxiety, improve sleep quality, and support your body’s natural ability to restore balance.

艾灸02

Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a gentle herbal heat therapy. We apply soft warmth from burning mugwort herb to targeted areas on your body. It helps relax tight muscles, support local blood circulation, soothe bodily stiffness, ease mental and physical fatigue, and assist your body in maintaining a comfortable balanced state.

拔罐·刮痧03

Cupping & Gua Sha

By applying the Taoist Fire Cloud Cupping technique, the body can regulate the circulation of qi and blood throughout the body and relieve stress.  Using a special material guasha board, it deeply and thoroughly cleans the accumulated waste in the body

杵针04

Pestle Needle-Intangible cultural heritage

A needle-free, deeply soothing point therapy — ideal for the sensitive and the young. An ancient Taoist treatment method, using special copper tools, through the corresponding time and space of the Five Elements and the Eight Trigrams, as well as the transfer and conduction of natural energy, solves many problems for patients.

芳香疗法05

TCM Aromatherapy

Botanical essences blended on classical principles to calm mind and spirit.

中药06

Herbal Medicine

Personalised herbal formulas, prescribed with care after traditional diagnosis.

推拿07

Tuina Manual therapy— Infant & Adult

Therapeutic Chinese massage for all ages, from gentle paediatric care to deep release.

食疗08

Chinese Nutritional Therapy

Food as medicine — seasonal eating guided by the wisdom of the five flavours.

美颜09

Cosmetic Treatment

 Microneedle facial sculpting a purely physical facial beauty treatment without any chemical agents. The extremely fine needles cause patients almost no pain, but at the same time, they stimulate blood circulation in the face, make the face full of nutrients, stretch wrinkles and fade spots.

调体10

Weight Management

A gentle, sustainable path to balance — harmonising digestion, energy and habit.

太极·气功11

Taichi & Qigong

Through multi-angle stretching of the body's fascia and muscles, the circulation of qi and blood and the metabolism of body fluids are enhanced. At the same time, it helps the elderly prevent falls.

养生12

Health, Wellbeing & Longevity

The art of nourishing life — longevity practised daily, not chased.

…and guided Eastern wellness journeys through the mountains and hot springs of New Zealand.

About Heidi · 医者

A physician of herbs,
a cultivator of the Dao.

Heidi is a registered acupuncturist and doctor of Chinese herbal medicine. Her practice is shaped not only by clinical training, but by a life of cultivation — she walks the path of the Dao, and brings its stillness into every consultation.

She believes healing is a quiet conversation between practitioner, patient and nature. Women especially find in her clinic a place of unhurried care: warm hands, warm moxa, warm tea — and a treatment plan made for one person only. You.
