Our Healing Modalities/Services
Acupuncture
With over 3000 years of history, acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine that involves gently inserting fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to restore balance and promote natural healing.
At Linking Path Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, we use acupuncture to support a wide range of health conditions, including:
-
Pain relief (chronic and acute)
-
Women's health and fertility support
-
Digestive issues
-
Stress, anxiety, and sleep problems
-
Fatigue and immune support
By stimulating the body’s own healing response, acupuncture helps improve circulation, reduce inflammation, calm the nervous system, and restore harmony to the body and mind.
Treatments are tailored to your individual needs and carried out in a calm, supportive environment.
Laser Acupuncture
Laser acupuncture is a modern, non-invasive therapy that uses low-level laser light to stimulate acupuncture points — without the use of needles. It’s a safe and painless alternative for those who may be sensitive to traditional acupuncture or prefer a gentler approach.
At Linking Path Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, laser acupuncture is used to support a wide range of conditions, including:
-
Pain and inflammation
-
Stress and anxiety
-
Musculoskeletal issues
-
Children’s health and needle-sensitive patients
This technique is especially suitable for children, elderly patients, and those with a fear of needles. It integrates the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine with advanced technology to gently activate the body’s natural healing response.
Whether as a standalone therapy or alongside traditional acupuncture, laser acupuncture offers a comfortable path to health and wellbeing.
Electro-Acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture is a modern extension of traditional acupuncture, where gentle electrical pulses are applied to the acupuncture needles to enhance the treatment’s effectiveness. This technique helps to stimulate the body's natural healing processes more deeply and is especially effective for:
-
Chronic pain and musculoskeletal conditions
-
Nerve-related issues (e.g. sciatica, numbness)
-
Muscle tightness and spasms
-
Recovery from injury or surgery
At Linking Path Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, electro-acupuncture is used safely and precisely, with adjustable intensity to suit each patient’s comfort level. It’s a popular option for patients seeking stronger stimulation and longer-lasting results.
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese herbal medicine is a core part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, using carefully selected combinations of natural herbs to restore balance and support the body’s healing from within.
At Linking Path Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, we prescribe personalised herbal formulas based on your unique symptoms, underlying patterns, and overall constitution. Herbal medicine can assist with:
-
Women’s health and fertility
-
Digestive issues
-
Fatigue and immune support
-
Sleep, stress, and emotional wellbeing
-
Chronic internal conditions
All herbs used are high-quality, TGA-approved, and tailored to your needs — available in convenient forms such as granules, capsules, or teas.
Chinese herbal medicine works in harmony with acupuncture or as a standalone treatment, offering a holistic approach to long-term wellness.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that uses the heat from burning dried mugwort (moxa) to gently warm acupuncture points and promote circulation, boost immunity, and dispel cold from the body.
At Linking Path Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, moxibustion may be used alongside acupuncture to support conditions such as:
-
Cold-related pain and stiffness
-
Digestive weakness
-
Fatigue and low energy
-
Menstrual disorders and fertility support
Moxa can be applied directly or indirectly, using methods that are safe, comfortable, and relaxing. Many patients describe the warmth as deeply soothing and nurturing.
This gentle therapy helps stimulate the body’s yang energy and supports overall balance and vitality.
