MEET THE Registered Acupuncturist & Chinese Medicine Practitioner
Dr Bec Emmerton (TCM)
Bec is a registered practitioner under the Chinese Medicine Board of Australia (CMBA), governed by the Federal agency AHPRA. She is also a member of the Australian Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine Association (AACMA), the peak professional body for Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners in Australia.
Bec completed a Bachelor of Health Science/Applied Science (Chinese Medicine) with RMIT University, graduating with Distinction. Her clinical training included a 12-month internship in a dedicated women’s health clinic, with a strong focus on pregnancy and fertility support. Over the years, she has worked with a wide range of patients and presentations, and she holds a particular interest in women’s health, pregnancy care, and holistic wellbeing.
Her approach is warm and supportive, creating a space where patients feel heard, respected, and cared for.
When not in the clinic, Bec enjoys pottering in the garden, playing with her dogs, or cooking up a storm in the kitchen! Bec uses the Chinese medical framework to provide personalized care that addresses the root cause of patients' conditions, rather than treating the symptoms alone. This includes acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary, and lifestyle advice. She also emphasises the importance of patient education and empowerment, and works collaboratively with patients to develop treatment plans that align with their goals and lifestyle. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs work wonderfully to complement Western medicine, and Bec works alongside a range of primary and other health care providers to deliver evidence-based, patient-centered care.
