Dr Rebecca Bau (TCM)

Hello & welcome :)) If you are looking to understand and feel the benefits of what wholistic lifestyle medicine has to offer… Look no further.

I’m Rebecca Bau – Sydney Acupuncturist, Chinese Herbalist and Lohan Qigong instructor. As the lead physician at Wise Wellbeing, I am committed to your health destination and itinerary of the journey to get there.

An Integrative approach leveraging modern day advances alongside physical health assessment and analysis… allow us to determine how to initiate the body’s natural healing ability using evidence based medicine.

There is so much research on acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, thankfully the World Health Organisation (WHO) provide a starting reference and baseline about the effectiveness for many ailments.

Should you feel uncertain how Eastern medicine can assist, I invite you to book a Health optimisation planning session where together we can discuss your health challenges, before committing to any treatment :))

MY EXPERIENCE in eastern medicine

My journey in eastern medicine began over 17 years ago in Lohan qigong, with further undergraduate and postgraduate study in Australia, China, Hong Kong and Japan.

Eastern medicine practices have proven to be life changing, combined with an integrative healthcare approach, healthy lifestyle, located in Sydney (sunshine, fresh air, clean water, abundant wholefoods) the opportunity exists for us all, regardless of age or condition to find personal harmony: body, mind, spirit and to live and age well.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of being a part of many amazing stories in fertility, pregnancy and labour journeys. However, I have experience on a broad spectrum of conditions having worked in integrative health, women’s health and herbal clinics which have assisted many people providing wonderful changes in their lives.

the TREATMENT JOURNEY

Through understanding you, considering any investigations and reviewing unique circumstances – I tailor your treatment plan which is refined on every visit.

Acupuncture treatments initiate rejuvenation by guiding the circulation of qi, blood and fluids through the bodies complex networks to improve your physiological function to address constitution, wholistic daily wellbeing and site specific symptoms. They may also incorporate cosmetic, abdominal, auricular and neuro needling, cupping and fine tuned Japanese moxibustion therapy to stage relaxing and rejuvenating clinical effects.

Chinese herbal medicine/ and supplements may be prepared in our dispensary to address acute symptoms at an initial consult, depending on severity of presentation. More commonly, this occurs at followup consults to target chronic symptoms and underlying causes which prevents over medicating for symptoms which clear in a couple of treatments.

WHOLISTIC LIFESTYLE approach

Further to acupuncture and Chinese herbalism, I provide a wholistic lifestyle approach drawing from coaching in mindful guided Qigong practices (breathing, meditation and movement), recommendations in your day-to-day lifestyle, exercise and dietary adjustments/ supplements for enhanced health and wellbeing.
