Services
Quiescence Chinese Medicine was founded in 2004 with the mission to provide a quality acupuncture and herbal medicine service for those seeking a natural alternative to healthcare. It has become a place where people feel comfortable speaking to knowledgeable, caring practitioners. Working on their health concerns in a beautiful, calm environment.
The restrictions around the provision of allied health care have changed, so please take time to read on. 2. This deterioration would prompt you to engage with an essential healthcare service such as your GP, psychologist, lifeline/kids help line etc. If you are unsure if you meet the criteria but would like to attend your appointment, let me know and we can discuss this further.

I came to see Annalise and the beautiful team at Quiescence for some help managing my endometriosis, and generally support and increase my health. Coming to this clinic has been a real pleasure. Annalise is so present and attentive (whilst being both warm & professional) in her consults, I have been so impressed with how holistic and thorough she is. Beyond her beautiful energy and attention, Annalise's advice and practise is backed by empirical, precise and considered research.
I would recommend this clinic for specific health support but also for general self care and for a beautiful treat for

I have had some problematic back pain since the beginning of my footy season and I'm happy I found these guys! I've had a couple acupuncture treatments done here and it has helped drastically. They are awesome here and I recommend trying out their suggestions as they are certainly experts in their trade.

It was a chance meeting in my bridal shop when I first met Annalise, we got chatting and she told me she was a Chinese doctor. A beautiful friendly warm woman (that didn't look like a Chinese doctor at all) I told her I had had much success with Chinese therapy in the past but struggled to find a therapist in my area so I was excited to learn about her clinic Quiescence in Fitzroy where I live.
At this time in my life I was in early 30s and I could barely lift my arm from long-term work abuse running my own business sewing to all hours hunching on a machine! Annalise started to give me regular

Annalise combines wholistic care and treatment accuracy in her acupuncture every time. She identifies the areas needing treatment, listens to your requirements, and delivers results.
Her consultative approach is easy to work with and you leave the clinic feeling amazing. When you find an acupuncturist of this calibre, you do not need to look further.

I cannot recommend Quiescence highly enough. Annalise and the team are amazing and their knowledge, skill and empathy towards their patients are incredible. I've been attending the clinic on a weekly basis for the past 5 years, to treat endometriosis, and have seen a very significant improvement to both my symptoms and my quality of life. I've also recommended the clinic to a number of friends, family members and colleagues. I'm very grateful to be in the hands of such a dedicated team.

I've been seeing Annalise for a little while now, and can say that I am so happily on my way to being the healthiest I have ever been in my adult years. Through herbs, acupuncture and cupping Annelise and I are working through some deep-rooted imbalances, even after my first treatment I noted an immense difference. I have full faith in TCM and always wholeheartedly recommend that all of my friends check this place out. The atmosphere of Quiescence is warm and homely, there's always the beautiful scent of herbs in the air and everyone who works there exuberates the most beautiful warmth. Stepping
