Dr. Tara Hanaphy - Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic approach to health that treats the body as an interconnected system. At OGCG, Dr. Tara Hanaphy, a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, provides acupuncture and TCM services focused on fertility, gynaecology, and pregnancy care.

Acupuncture can help improve circulation, balance hormones, reduce stress, and relieve pain, making it an excellent complementary therapy for women and men at various stages of life. TCM is often used to support fertility, regulate menstrual cycles, manage symptoms of hormonal imbalance, and ease the discomforts of pregnancy, including nausea, back pain, and fatigue.

Tara’s approach is deeply personalised, taking into account your physical and emotional health to create a treatment plan that supports your specific goals. Whether you’re trying to conceive, seeking relief during pregnancy, or looking for ongoing wellness support, Tara combines acupuncture, herbal remedies, and other TCM modalities to help restore balance and promote optimal health.

Appointments are available with Tara, who brings a compassionate and holistic approach to each treatment. TCM can also be integrated with other health services, ensuring that your care is comprehensive and tailored to your needs.
