From Personal Experience to Professionalism – You Can Only Understand by Walking the Path
During my second pregnancy, the extreme pressure of my work triggered hyperthyroidism. The mental and physical strain was so severe that even my obstetrician grew concerned about my gestational health. Fortunately, through Chinese herbal therapy and acupuncture, my thyroid levels stabilized. This experience not only helped me overcome a difficult chapter, but also convinced me that the TCM principles of “holistic harmony” and “nourishing both body and mind” are essential pillars for modern people seeking true health.
Professional Background: Caring for the Body, Healing the Heart
My many years of experience as a psychiatric nurse have given me a deep understanding of how closely emotions and physical well-being are intertwined. In my TCM practice, I weave that insight into every consultation, with special attention to my patients’ emotional states and psychological needs:
- ✓ Balancing the autonomic nervous system through acupuncture to relieve stress and anxiety
- ✓ Using Chinese herbal formulas that address both symptoms and root causes to restore constitutional health
- ✓ Drawing on my nursing background in active listening and companionship to offer deeply empathetic care
Having personally navigated both the challenges of trying to conceive and the emotional roller-coaster of postpartum recovery, I truly understand how a woman’s needs shift at each life stage. I’ve translated that understanding into my ongoing professional development:
- Studied women’s skin‐health protocols under cosmetic-acupuncture expert Vivian Tam
- Trained in pain‐management and holistic adjustment techniques with Eileen Han of Euro-style Meridian Acupuncture
- Followed fertility expert Kirsten Wolfe in mastering the “Fertile Life Method”
I am first and foremost a healer, also a mother, and above all someone who has walked through health setbacks to rediscover balance and hope. That personal journey gave me a profound appreciation for TCM’s healing power—and it marked the pivotal transition from my nursing career into Chinese medicine.
Promoting TCM Principles – Helping More Women Reclaim Mind-Body Balance
As the mother of three, I deeply empathize with the support and understanding women need throughout life’s journey. Beyond my clinical practice, I’m active in community outreach and education:
- 2024 – Invited to design and teach a “Women’s Cycle Wellness Ⅰ” course for the Miss Chinese Melbourne pageant
- From 2025 onward – Launching pediatric Tui Na workshops and women’s health seminars
- Ongoing – Focusing on emotional care for expectant mothers and sub-health management for working women
I pay special attention to:
- Challenges in conception and related anxiety
- Thyroid dysfunction and endocrine imbalance
- Postpartum recovery and emotional support
- Insomnia, stress-related fatigue, and chronic mood fluctuations
I firmly believe that a true healer does more than treat symptoms – we walk alongside you to restore inner stability and hope.
A Clinician’s Heartfelt Reflections
As a TCM doctor specializing in women’s health and fertility, I have accompanied many women on the long, often painful journey to motherhood. Some undergo multiple rounds of IVF without success; others cling to hope each month only to face disappointment again and again. Watching their tears and sorrow weighs on my heart, and when they say “it’s okay,” I know those words mask unspoken exhaustion and pain. Over time, I too have wondered: “After all this effort, is there truly any hope left?”
Yet it is precisely through that cycle of setbacks and waiting that my faith in TCM’s value has only deepened. We do more than help them conceive – we hold them up when they’re on the verge of giving up, helping mind and body find equilibrium once more. Many of our Jing Yi Tang patients in their late 30s and 40s have gone on to conceive naturally or with IVF support. They’ve known doubt and loss, yet chose to believe; through tailored herbs and acupuncture, their bodies’ channels regained balance step by step.
Each time I receive the message “I’m pregnant,” my heart still leaps with joy and gratitude. Pregnancy isn’t a miracle bestowed overnight, but the result of long-term care, adjustment, and perseverance. These mothers have taught me one simple truth: no matter how hard the road, never give up too soon—because life often prepares to bloom just when we stand on the brink of despair.
