Julia Gerster – Registered Acupuncturist & Chinese Medicine Practitioner

Julia Gerster

Julia is a qualified and experienced Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Practitioner, nationally licensed with AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) and a member of AACMA (Australian Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine Association). She is also a trained Physiotherapist in her home country Germany, and has over 16 years of clinical experience in the health industry.
Julia’s clinical experience is diverse. Ranging from musculoskeletal problems, pain management, digestive and respiratory condition to also more emotional imbalances. Over the years she developed a particular interest in stress & sleep disorders and women’s health – supporting women with problems related to menstruation, fertility/IVF, pregnancy and menopause.

Treatments are tailored to individual needs after an initial assessment and may include a combination of Acupuncture, Cupping, Chinese Herbs, massage techniques, exercises or some dietary advice. Julia will choose the appropriate methods which will be most effective for you and your presenting condition.

She is also trained in Cosmetic Acupuncture which involves the insertion of super fine needles to specific acupuncture points on the body and face to stimulate collagen production and tone facial muscles for a more youthful look and appearance.

I truly believe that ultimate health and happiness comes from living a balanced life in which Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine can play a very important role.
