Wild Heart Acupuncture
Women's Health Acupuncture: Fertility to Perimenopause in the heart of Blackwood, Adelaide
Find Balance. Feel Whole. Live Wild at Heart.
Whatever stage you're at: trying to conceive, pregnant, newly postpartum, or moving through perimenopause. This is the one place where you do not have to hold it together. Come as you are. I'll take it from here.
At Wild Heart Acupuncture, I support women's health across that whole arc: fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and perimenopause. Because hormonal change and emotional wellbeing go hand in hand, emotional support runs through everything I do, not as a separate add-on, but as part of how I treat you.
My approach blends Traditional Chinese Medicine with an evidence-informed, root cause perspective, working alongside your GP, fertility specialist, or obstetric team. Lasting change comes from understanding what's actually going on, not just managing what's on the surface.
Fertility to Perimenopause — with Emotional Wellbeing Support
My Approach
I work with women across the full arc of reproductive and hormonal health: trying to conceive, pregnant, newly postpartum, or navigating perimenopause.
Your cycle, your fertility, your hormone changes: they are not random, and you are not broken. Stress, your history, and your nervous system can all play a part — and there's often more going on beneath the surface too. That's why I take the time to understand the whole picture, with emotional wellbeing woven through the care rather than treated as separate from it.
As a degree-qualified practitioner, my practice is grounded in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and supported by an evidence-informed understanding of the body. I bring together acupuncture, Neuro Emotional Technique (NET), and years of experience working with people and their emotions through my background in Human Resources. This matters enormously when you're navigating the uncertainty of trying to conceive or the intensity of early motherhood.
You won't be rushed here. I take the time to listen, connect the dots, and create a space where you feel genuinely seen and cared for. I'll be honest with you from the very first session: real change takes time. You'll leave with a clear plan, realistic expectations, and the tools to support yourself between treatments, so the results stay with you long after you leave the clinic.
I have a clinical focus on supporting:
Fertility and Pre-Conception Care
Pregnancy and Postpartum Care
Hormonal balance and cycle regulation
Perimenopause and menopause transitions
Fatigue, stress, and nervous system support
Emotional wellbeing, including anxiety and overwhelm
Whether you’re navigating fertility, burnout, or hormonal change, you are welcome here. My role is to support your body to do what it’s designed to do: adapt, recover, and find its way back to balance.
Acupuncture may be claimable through your private health insurance, depending on your level of cover. HICAPS is available in clinic for on-the-spot claiming.

Supporting women in Blackwood through fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and perimenopause. So you don't have to hold it together alone.
Women’s Health
Health doesn't stay still. It moves through the cycles of a month and the seasons of a life: periods, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, perimenopause, and everything in between. At Wild Heart Acupuncture, I treat that whole arc, rather than chasing whatever symptom happens to be loudest this week.
Care here is shaped around the person in front of me, not a generic protocol. I bring together the traditions of Chinese Medicine with an evidence-informed perspective, so what you get is grounded in genuine clinical knowledge and relevant to the life you're actually living.
Where you're already working with a fertility specialist, GP, or obstetric team, my care sits alongside that support, not in place of it. Because hormonal change and emotional wellbeing are so closely linked, emotional support is woven through this care rather than treated separately.
What I commonly help with
Fertility and pre-conception care
Pregnancy and postpartum support
Perimenopause and menopause
Irregular or painful periods, and PMS
Emotional wellbeing, including anxiety and overwhelm
If one of these is front of mind, you'll find more detail on the Fertility & Pregnancy page, the Menstrual & Hormonal Health page, or the Perimenopause & Menopause page. If you're somewhere in between or not quite sure, that's a completely normal place to start, and we can work it out together at your first visit.
One underlying framework. Many life stages
Chinese Medicine views women's health through the lens of Qi and Blood flow, and the condition of the Liver, Spleen, and Kidney systems. Disruption to any of these can show up differently depending on your stage of life: pain and irregularity during your cycling years, fatigue during pregnancy recovery, heat and disrupted sleep through perimenopause. Different presentation, same underlying principle: restore the flow, and the body tends to settle.
On the physiological side, that translates to better-regulated hormones, improved blood flow to the reproductive organs, and a nervous system that's better equipped to handle whatever stress life is currently throwing at you.
How a visit unfolds
Expect a real conversation first, about your history, your current symptoms, and the broader context of your life, not just the complaint that brought you through the door. Treatment is then built specifically for you: acupuncture, and where useful, moxibustion, cupping, Gua Sha, or herbal support, alongside practical guidance you can actually use outside the clinic.
Why I work this way
The physical, the emotional, and the stage of life you're in are tangled together more than most healthcare acknowledges. Treating them together, instead of in isolation, is how lasting change actually happens.
If you'd like care that takes in the whole picture, book an appointment and we'll go from there.
