We've been a little quiet on here of late..

Both busy juggling our work that we love with the joys (and challenges) of parenting.. and life !

We are seeing more people slip into sleep during their treatments, allowing the restful energy that comes with Winter to take over.

It is a time to slow down, sip tea, stay warm and snuggle up with a good book 📚. Life has become so incredibly fast paced and full that taking time out for a meaningful and intentional pause is absolutely essential.

A few of my favourite ways to create space for stillness are:

A mindful moment in the morning sun ☀️
A cup of chai or cacao with a little snack for afternoon tea  ☕️
A DIY magnesium foot soak in the evening.. with a few essential oils for added luxury 😌

Every time we deliberately slow down we give the nervous system a chance to recalibrate.

In case you missed it in our last newsletter both Laura and Heidi have some little mini breaks scheduled in the coming months ✈️🌏😎

Laura is off to Bali tomorrow!! Follow along for a little glimpse into some of her adventures. Heidi is covering a few extra days but is almost booked out for the next 2 weeks.

Reach out if you would like your quiet time to be on the treatment table, under the heat lamp with beautiful music drifting over you ✨️

Extra appointments !!!

Heidi is offering a few extra days of availability in the weeks to come ahead of her NZ adventure in July 🛩

We are open on Monday (Labour Day) and she has a couple of spots left next Saturday too. If after hours appointments work better for you, this is a great opportunity to get a little seasonal tune up, or get some support for those annoying little niggles.

Laura has a sprinkle of appointments available in the next few weeks if you would like a lovely big dose of self care after a somewhat strange start to the year.

If you're not sure what Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine can help with, please reach out.
We are always more than happy to share a little about what we do (and why we love it!) ☯️.

Contact us on 0428 942 010 or book online www.nautilusacupuncture.com.au. If you cant find an appointment that fits let us know and we'll pop you on our waitlist.

Easter already 🐣😳

Oh my goodness this year is FLYING by 🚀

Here we are a day away from April!!

Heidi and I are both here over Easter but are currently fully booked. Please reach out if you would like to go on the waitlist for Good Friday or Easter Monday as things change day by day.

We are loving the influx of new clients who are finding their way to this amazing medicine that we both LOVE to share ☯️ .

Heidi is opening up a few extra Monday appointments from April onwards. More availability for her incredible skills 😁🎉

Brooke from is also here on Good Friday and has 1 spot left for her beautiful offerings 💖

Rachel from and Heather from are both taking a well earned break but have a few spots in their regular days next week. Check out their socials or websites to see what they're both up to!

Toby from is back from a trip home to NZ from Wednesday 8th April with one spot left that day and a couple still available on Saturday 11th. Jump online and grab one!

Healing hands come in many forms.

Sometimes it's hard to know where to start or who to pick. Each of the therapies and therapists here are truly wonderful at what they do. Sometimes we just need a little nudge to take the first step 👣

I have a little staycation planned with some long overdue home diy projects. I hope each of you take some time to simply BE this weekend.

You know where we are if our little island sanctuary is calling 🏝✨️

☕️ Ceremonial cacao .. what's it all about?

Ceremonial cacao is unrefined, unprocessed chocolate in its purest form. Traditionally sourced from the theobroma cacao tree in Central and South America. Used for millenia by ancient tribes for ceremonies, connection and vibrant health.
Theobroma translates to 'food of the gods'.

All of the wonderful benefits you've heard that come from dark chocolate are magnified in this powerhouse plant. It is medicinal in many ways;

🌱 Heart health with cardiovascular actions.

🌱 Liver health as its a gentle detoxifier.

🌱 Mood enhancer with neurotransmitters and the bliss chemical anandamide.

🌱 Muscle and nervous system support with high dose magnesium.

🌱 Brain and cellular benefits with an array of antioxidant properties.

What I love it for is creating a ritual for myself.
To slow down and connect. To breathe, move, dance, journal or simply be. It is known for it's ability to 'open the heart'. Deepening our connection to ourself and those we care for ✨️

I have shared my journey with this beautiful plant medicine a few times along the way, but if you would like to know more or you are interested in trying it for yourself reach out.

We are now stocking ceremonial cacao in the clinic alongside our powerful herbal medicine formula's. is a unique product imported directly from a small farm in Chazuta, Peru.

Check out their socials to learn more about why I've chosen this high quality brand 🤎☕️🤎☕️

Hands on healing

The therapeutic benefit of touch is so incredibly powerful 💪

Anything from a simple hand on your shoulder when you're having a hard day, to holding hands with your child as you cross the road, to a meaningful hug between friends, to the bliss that is available from an amaaaazing massage (or deeply relaxing Acupuncture treatment!).

Both Heidi and Laura use a variety of hands on techniques when they are assessing and supporting the range of health conditions they see everyday. The body has alot to say when you know how to.. and take the time to listen !!

Encouraging clients to learn the subtle, and sometimes not so subtle clues their body's are giving them is a big part of the preventative health care model of Chinese Medicine ☯️

Laura has 1 spot left tomorrow at 1pm (new and existing clients). Heidi has 7am Wednesday (existing) and 9.30am Weds (new & existing).

In case you missed it we also have Toby from in this Wednesday afternoon with 2 spots left 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️

You can book with any of us online at www.nautilusacupuncture.com.au

It's essential!

I feel there has been a MUCH needed shift in the conversation around self care and what it really means. Especially after many people ended 2025 with very empty cups and a deep desire to rest.

Self care can be as simple as saying no when you would usually say yes, choosing company that feels easeful, doing things because you want to not because you 'should' and putting your own oxygen mask on first.

We are in a time of reflection. These first few weeks of a new year are a time to really sit with what is important to YOU and what you want to fill your life with.

As always we are here to support your health and wellbeing goals with Traditional Chinese Medicine
and are both more than happy to have a chat about what this looks like ☯️

We are fully booked until Weds 28th Jan with a waiting list available for urgent complaints. Jump online to book ahead or reach out 0428 942 010

Happy New Year 🎉

It feels as though many people are starting to realise that health care IS self care.

After a particularly tumultuous year for many.. the things we prioritise are changing.

What do you want your year to look and FEEL like ? From the inside out not the outside in.

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine works by regulating, nourishing and supporting our internal organ systems and the many facets of 'self' that contribute to our whole being.

Medicine for your mind, body & soul ✨️

We are so excited to be welcoming 12 new clients in the first 2 weeks of the year 😁.

Heidi and I truly love that we get to share our knowledge and skills to support people to feel more balanced and vibrant ☯️

If prioritising YOU and your wellbeing is on the list for 2026, jump online and book ahead or reach out with any questions. www.nautilusacupuncture.com.au or 0428 942 010 📞
