Olivia is a highly skilled and compassionate practitioner, committed to helping people of all ages achieve their health and wellness goals. While she is experienced in treating a wide range of health concerns—from hormonal imbalances to everyday aches and pains like neck and lower back issues—her true passion lies in women’s health, children’s health, and epigenetics: the study of how lifestyle, diet, and emotional well-being influence the expression of our genes. Olivia provides a holistic and evidence-based approach to care, no matter where you’re starting from.

Growing Up with Natural Medicine

Raised in a family deeply rooted in natural healing, Olivia was immersed in Chinese medicine from a young age. Her father, Stephen, is also a practising acupuncturist, and today, she has the joy of working alongside him. This lifelong exposure has shaped her integrative style, blending time-honoured wisdom with modern science.

A Tailored, Whole-Body Approach

Olivia combines traditional Chinese acupuncture with modern techniques such as:

  • Infrared laser
  • Auricular (ear) acupuncture
  • Abdominal acupuncture
  • Abdominal cupping
  • Trigger point acupuncture (dry needling)

She also incorporates moxibustion, Chinese herbal medicine, and nutritional supplementation to support each person’s unique needs.

Hormonal Health & Fertility—A Personal and Professional Passion

As a mother, wife, and busy human herself, Olivia understands the real-life demands of balancing wellness with everyday life. This fuels her passion for helping women navigate hormonal shifts and postpartum recovery with confidence, clarity, and support.

She has attended the International Integrative Chinese Medicine Conference (IICMC) on Fertility multiple times and recently completed training in Kirstin Wolfe’s Fertile Life Method & Mastery (2025), further deepening her expertise in fertility, IVF treatments, and hormonal health.

Why Men’s Health Matters, Too

Olivia firmly believes fertility is a shared responsibility. Roughly 30% of infertility is due to female factors, 30% to male factors, and 30% to combined couple factors.

Yet male reproductive health—especially sperm quality—is often overlooked. Sperm health plays a crucial role in conception, embryo development, and the long-term health of future children. Factors like stress, diet, alcohol, drugs, sleep, and environmental toxins all significantly impact sperm. That’s why Olivia ensures that male fertility support is a foundational part of her treatment approach.

Cutting Through the Confusion

Fertility Research is evolving rapidly – and Olivia understands how overwhelming and often conflicting the information can be. This is why she has spent the past year systemising the latest research & knowledge from leading experts on fertility, hormonal health & how that impacts a developing fetus & child. With this knowledge, she is currently developing a user-friendly fertility education program, involving a clear, actionable framework to help women and couples navigate these complexities with confidence.

Rooted in Care, Guided by Evidence

Much of Olivia’s work is already shared in-clinic with her acupuncture clients. Whether she’s guiding you through hormonal changes, supporting IVF cycles, or helping optimise sperm health, Olivia’s approach is grounded in up-to-date research, clinical experience, and genuine care.
