Hi, Mark & Masa deeply regret to advise that our MELBOURNE CLINIC is now CLOSED. We are making preparations to re-open the home clinic in ULVERSTONE in TASMANIA, mid Spring 2021. Thank you for your ongoing support! Calming the mind to relieve stress, managing fatigue and muscle strain are just some of the things for which people commonly seek help.
Every person is treated uniquely with a custom made treatment plan to match the person's constitution, symptoms and the season. You will leave the clinic feeling uplifted even after the first session, however most people find that they need several treatments to see a significant improvement in their symptoms.

Acupuncture is a type of therapy which means that results are cumulative with ongoing care, personalised health plans often include acupuncture and/or herbal prescriptions; however compliance is the key, no gain can be expected without ongoing treatments several times per week for the first few weeks (treatment plans are available to make this more affordable, ) then later drawing out the time between treatments moving forward.
Esoteric Acupuncture (EA) was developed by a modern-day living acupuncturist by the name of Dr Mikio Sankey, PHD. In actual fact the point locations and the optional use of needles is the only resemblance that EA has to traditional acupuncture. When most people consider going to see an acupuncturist for body aches and pains, EA is more closely associated with spiritual growth and development.
Root & Branch Oriental Therapies understands that maintaining good health through internal balance improves the mind body connection. There is probably no modality other than oriental medicine, which fully comprehends the link between mental and physical health.
Modern medicine primarily fixes that which is already broken; however traditional medicine is more proactive in prevention, if there is an imbalance, our aim to restore balance before disharmony takes hold and then health is managed with ongoing periodic maintenance.

FIRSTLY: it is great value! We have found anecdotally that treating most conditions respond better and build momentum faster when treated more regularly over a shorter period of time. Most conditions require more than three treatments, however frequency between treatments can be extended after the first 14 days and most people will know by the 2nd or 3rd treatment whether Chinese Medicine is a good match for their condition.

Masa is a very special therapist - I was blessed to have an amazing Shiatsu session with him before he escaped to Tasmania.
Masa is a very humble, generous and intuitive gentleman - much more gifted in his therapy than he knows. The session was 1.5 hours and covered every painful spot I had.
The room was so peaceful and smelled divine- he used a few additional things (heat pack, tuning fork ect) that brought the session to a much deeper and lasting experience.
Such a relief - I feel relaxed and grounded.
Clearly the Universe is blessing Tasmania, by sending Masa to share his talents there.

I have been receiving treatments from Mark and Masa since they opened the clinic in Abbotsford. Mark is a very gentle, thoughtful and caring acupuncturist. His herbal formulas are tailored to my needs. Masa is intuitive and precise in his Shiatsu treatment. His focus and pressure are always spot on.
