The origins of CM stem from the Daoist philosophy which involves the concept of Yin and Yang. Traditionally Daoism involved the theory of people interacting within their environment. Most of us are familiar with the Yin and Yang symbol. Yin and Yang represent the concept of balance and duality. Yin is indicated by white and yang is black.

I have been seeing Nick for 10 years because his technique and approach works... FAST. Prior to this it would take 8 sessions of physio to get my back pain eased. It has always taken Nick only 1-2 sessions. Now that I no longer have any back pain I am seeing Nick to reduce my blood pressure. Within a few short weeks the combination of acupuncture and herbs has brought down my blood pressure significantly. I have now managed to avoid a script for life (blood pressure meds my GP wanted me on). My new energy levels are amazingly high. Cant thank you enough Nick and team!!!

I have seen Nick for nearly 3 years now and he is just so professional, empathic, knowledgeable, kind and experienced.
He took care of my when I was pregnant and the acupuncture sessions with him helped me prepare my body for birth and helped achieve the all natural birth experience I wanted.
He is also massively helping me to fight my migraines (with acupuncture and chinese medicine) and I cannot wait to go back for my nest session soon!
A great great place!

I can't rave enough about Nick and the team at Gardenvale Chinese Medicine. They are so lovely and caring and i honestly believe Nick is a huge reason i was finally able to conceive our miracle babies naturally after many years of heartache. The acupuncture and herbal treatment that Nick put me on a few months before and during my pregnancies helped me to relax and produce very strong and healthy babies. I can't thank him enough. True miracle workers.

This was my first acupuncture experience, and Nick was the ultimate professional. He took the time to understand my issue and explained the science behind the process. I had instant improvement after the session. Friendly reception staff and a very convenient location in Brighton, I will definitely be back again.
