In this episode of the podcast I’m joined by Chinese Medicine doctor and acupuncturist Joanna Macmeikan for a chat about all things women’s health, hormones and fertility with a twist of yin and yang!
We’re talking about how TCM ties in beautifully with the cyclical nature of the female menstrual cycle, how acupuncture can help your body to heal itself as well as what to expect during a consultation.
Joanna is a registered Chinese medicine practitioner here in Melbourne who became interested in complementary healthcare after realising that a lot of the time, the conventional medical approach to treating illness was just masking symptoms and never really getting to the actual root cause of the problem. She returned to university to study to become a Naturopath, and by accident stumbled onto Chinese medicine, and it was there that she felt she’d found the answers she’d been looking for.
Joanna believes that good health gives you freedom to live the life you want, and to experience as much happiness as you can along the way, and she’s dedicated to helping people find lasting solutions to their health challenges. She’s also a mother to two little girls, lives for food, music, and hula hooping, and owns far too many books.
I’ve been working with Joanna for a little while now in her clinic and I’m so excited to share her incredible knowledge with you!
