Danielle is very kind, understanding and knowledgeable. She really listens and is sensitive towards your needs. I have been seeing her for a while for infertility, pregnancy and now postpartum. I honestly believe the reason I fell pregnant was because of Chinese medicine and the work Danielle did. I’m so thankful that I am on this journey with Danielle and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have been one of Danielle's regular acupuncture clients for 5 years and have found her therapy to be effective, gentle and her manner truly nurturing.
She sets you at your ease in serene surroundings and asks you what issues are troubling you. For late 50s me it was high blood pressure, sleep issues, menopause and even acupuncture for insect bites! I can't recommend her strongly enough - please book Embrace Acupuncture with confidence!

Danielle and the ladies at Embrace are amazing. Have been with them for years from period pain/hormone balance to fertility, pregnancy and postpartum. The space is wonderful, very thorough and personalised care. Could not recommend them enough, have sent many to them and all had similar experiences. Thank you ladies for all you do!

Danielle is fantastic. She was able to assist me with a longstanding health issue by using both acupuncture and knowledge of western medicine. I've been so pleased to see a massive reduction in symptoms in a fairly short time, and look forward to working with her for support over the long term.

Treatment with Danielle at Embrace Acupuncture has been life-changing - as cliché as that sounds, over the past 18 months, Danielle assisted me to restore my health to significantly improve both my physical and mental wellbeing. I noticed positive changes almost immediately through following Danielle’s advice and treatment, which is holistic and integrative. Danielle is professional, personable and very studious in getting to the bottom of health concerns. I would highly recommend Embrace Acupuncture to anyone who wants to take a natural approach that will result in lasting change rather than
