​Dr Chris speaks with Jacinta Eales, registered acupuncturist and nutritionist. After graduating from her Bachelor of Health Science majoring in acupuncture in 2015, she then completed an advanced diploma in nutritional medicine. This allows her to prescribe nutritional supplements and provide naturopathic style dietary advice which she combines with her Chinese medicine knowledge.

As a practitioner, she has a keen interest in women’s hormonal disorders, skin conditions such as acne and all things surrounding fertility. Other areas of her clinical focus include stress management, sleep issues, fatigue, and cancer support. Dr Chris caught up with Jacinta following her immersion in the seminar for the Kiiko Matsumoto style of acupuncture.

Tune in to this insightful conversation that explores the combined use of nutritional medicine along with traditional acupuncture styles that stem from vastly different cultures.​​
