Our Philosophy
Welcome to Nexus Health. We offer professional healthcare by integrating the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with modern evidence-based Western Medical Acupuncture (WMA).
At Nexus Health, we recognise that every patient is unique. We take a holistic approach, focusing not just on your symptoms but on identifying their underlying causes to prevent recurrence. We offer a range of treatments and will partner with you to design a personalised plan that helps you achieve your health and wellbeing goals.
What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?
Traditional Chinese Medicine is considered one of the oldest and most enduring systems of healing on the planet, having been practised continuously for thousands of years. While acupuncture is often the most recognised component of TCM in Western cultures, it is just one aspect of a complex and holistic framework that encompasses five essential therapeutic modalities.
What is Western Medical Acupuncture (WMA)?
Western Medical Acupuncture (WMA) is a modern form of acupuncture that combines ancient needling techniques with our current scientific understanding of the human body. Unlike TCM, which relies on concepts like "qi" and meridians, WMA focuses on how acupuncture affects your nerves, muscles, and brain.
The Best of Both Worlds: Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Science
Nexus Health’s practice is built on a foundation that integrates the insights of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with the latest scientific understanding of Western Medical Acupuncture. This means you benefit from a comprehensive approach.
