Yana Francis Acupuncturist & Chinese Herbalist (CM, MRMed)
My practice is dedicated to women’s healthcare from puberty onwards, with a particular focus on gynaecological health. Chinese medicine is an ancient healing system with a long history of treating women’s health, including general health & wellbeing, pain management, menstrual, hormonal and reproductive health, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and menopausal care.
My approach to women’s healthcare is grounded in Chinese medicine and informed by modern medical science and reproductive medicine. I take a holistic view of your health, considering your physical wellbeing, emotional experiences, menstrual cycle, lifestyle, and health goals, to create an individualised treatment plan.
