Acupuncture

Personalised acupuncture in Bondi Junction supporting pain, stress, hormonal balance and overall wellbeing through a holistic, whole-body approach

Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has been used for over 2,000 years to support the body’s natural ability to heal and regulate itself. At Jung Wellbeing in Bondi Junction, acupuncture is practised as a whole-body, integrative therapy, not just symptom-focused treatment.

Rather than treating one issue in isolation, each acupuncture session is tailored to your overall health, lifestyle, and underlying patterns contributing to your condition. This approach allows us to support both immediate symptom relief and long-term wellbeing.

A holistic and personalised approach

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body, known as acupuncture points. These points lie along pathways called meridians, which are understood in TCM to regulate the flow of energy (Qi), blood, and body fluids.

When this flow is disrupted, it may contribute to pain, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, digestive issues, stress, or other health concerns. Acupuncture aims to restore balance within the body, supporting physical, emotional, and nervous system regulation.

In practice, this means your treatment may address:

Pain and musculoskeletal tension

Stress, anxiety, and nervous system regulation

Digestive and gut-related concerns

Hormonal balance, menstrual health, and fertility support

Fatigue, sleep issues, and general wellbeing

More than just needles

While acupuncture needles are central to treatment, sessions at Jung Wellbeing go beyond needle insertion alone. Treatments may also include:

Manual needle techniques to enhance therapeutic effects

Massage therapy alongside acupuncture (if booked)

Lifestyle, dietary, and self-care recommendations based on your individual presentation

Most people experience minimal discomfort during treatment, and many feel deeply relaxed during and after their session. Needles are typically retained for 15–30 minutes, with sessions lasting 60 or 75 minutes, depending on your booking.

Evidence-informed approach

Modern research suggests acupuncture may interact with the body through mechanisms such as:

Supporting nervous system regulation

Influencing circulation and relaxation responses

Supporting the body’s natural pain-modulating processes

Acupuncture is commonly used alongside conventional medical care and can be a valuable complementary therapy.

Why Combine Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine?

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine work best when used together, as they support the body in different but complementary ways.

Acupuncture helps to regulate the nervous system, circulation, and energy flow in real time during treatment. It can help the body respond more efficiently, relieve tension, and support immediate changes in how the body functions.

Chinese herbal medicine works more gradually and continuously between sessions. Herbal formulas are taken daily and help maintain therapeutic support over time, reinforcing the effects of acupuncture and addressing underlying patterns at a deeper level.

When combined, these two therapies allow for:

More consistent support between treatments

A more comprehensive, whole-body approach to health

Support for both short-term symptoms and long-term balance

Treatment that is tailored to your changing needs over time

This integrated approach is especially beneficial for ongoing or complex concerns such as stress-related conditions, hormonal imbalance, digestive issues, fertility support, and chronic health patterns.

At Jung Wellbeing, acupuncture and herbal medicine are prescribed together only when appropriate and are always tailored to your individual presentation.
