My holistic health approach

In this safe space you are fully seen, and heard. I am kind, honest, caring and professional and will do my best to support you if you are ready to venture to health, healing and happiness, or, if you are feeling good and are after preventative tune ups because you value yourself. During your sessions I place strong emphasis on you feeling good, feeling empowered within yourself and knowing that there is true support for you, in a personalised form, specific for your needs .......

MORE ABOUT MY APPROACH & EXPERIENCE

As a Dr of Chinese Medicine my treatment approach aims at relieving your symptoms while addressing the underlying root cause of your health concern to best address your wellbeing at a foundational level. As I believe we are a 'whole package', I give dietary and lifestyle advice in conjunction with acupuncture and herbal medicine, to help promote functional healing of your body and mind, which will also help improve your everyday life well into the future.

Acupuncture strongly regulates and calms the nervous system to help recalibrate how our body communicates. When information runs better and smoother throughout our body and mind we feel better, look better and function better, and our organs, tissues and body systems communicate with one another more effectively and are healthier and more balanced. Sounds good right? I’ve been doing this for over a decade and it still amazes me everyday. This medicine is still going strong after thousands of years and I am honoured to use these traditional practices to help people restore to their best self.

The incredible success and systematic approach of acupuncture and the traditional knowledge of natural medicine has fascinated me since my younger years, and it is incredible to witness its relevance, now more than ever in our fast paced modern world. As a second generation acupuncturist, with both my brother and father also still being long standing practitioners, I understand how beneficial natural medicine can be, for both the treatment of disease as well as it's prevention. My own wellness journey and growing to appreciate myself and take better care of all parts of me has highlighted the potency of making positive shifts to true self care.

After six years of full time training, study and clinical experience, I was awarded a Bachaelor of Health Science in Chinese Medicine and a Diploma of Tui Na (Chinese Medicine remedial massage) from SSNT (Southern School of Natural Therapies). I had the privilege of working with a well renowned Dr of Chinese Medicine in Melbourne for over three years as his herbal dispenser and clinic assistant while running my own private practice in South Yarra, before moving back to Queensland to open Nourished Temple (originally named Body & Soul Sunshine Coast). My studies involved a high level of up to date scientific based training in anatomy, physiology and pathology. I continue my professional education in womens natural health, while my love for overseas travel found me also completing a 200 hour yoga teacher training, allowing me to share my other passion and the incredible benefits yoga can bring to everyone.

I am registered with AHPRA and ATMS and am covered by all major health funds. I am proud and grateful to be able to share my professional and personal knowledge of this time-tested health-care system to assist you on your path to wellness in a safe, effective and natural way. I am humbled by the guidance of my teachers and mentors and all those dedicated to this long lineage of natural medicine. I look forward to meeting you soon.

Kindest, Miriam

"I am beyond grateful

I am beyond grateful for the support Miriam has provided me and my body through my healing journey! She is kind and compassionate and allows you to fully open up to receive only the best treatment. I have had acupuncture done in the past but have left disappointed and confused but since being recommended to the Nourished Temple I know each session I will receive the greatest care in a safe environment !"

– Mila Tayla

"I couldn't be happier

Miriam was highly recommended to me and I couldn't be happier that I met her. Every appointment has been so worthwhile and is always personalised for what I need at the time. I have now recommended her to my family and friends."

– Lucinda Swanston

"Thankyou for making me feel alive again

Miriam was referred to me when I left Brisbane to live on the Sunshine Coast. She is amazing at what she does. When I first started visiting her I had just spent a year going through chemo and radiation and I can honestly say that I wasn't feeling great. But these days I'm pain free, my body is feeling strong and healthy and not only do I love acupuncture I recommend anyone who is having pain, going through the change of life or trying to get your body back on track and don't want to take pills to check out Miriam. She is truly an amazing, kind, caring, talented woman. Thankyou for making me feel alive again."

– Liz Richards

"I highly recommend Miriam's work

Miriam is a very approachable practitioner of TCM and I was instantly and easily able to confide in her with my health concerns. Miriam has assisted me greatly in dealing with some big life challenges and changes and with every consult I feel very seen and heard. Thanks to Miriam she has given me many effective and easy to implement life tips and tools that have been so profound and beneficial to me. I cannot recommend her work enough."

– Chantel Harris

"I HIGHLY recommend

I have really benefited from working with Miriam. She really knows her stuff, is calm, gracious and I love spending time on her table. I come away feeling relaxed and feeling a lot more in control of my hormones. Since I have started seeing Miriam, my cycle has regulated and there is a lot less pain. So grateful for her expertise. If you're looking for help with your hormones / cycle regulation / stress and well-being in particular, I HIGHLY recommend."

– Sam Spiro

"Miriam is very thorough in getting to the root of the problem

Miriam is a very caring and supportive holistic health practitioner. I first went to see her about a year ago to help with low energy, hoping to boost my immune system and later for relief of severe lower back pain. Taking a holistic patient-centred approach, her treatments have greatly benefited my health and well-being and as a side bonus my periods and digestion have also much improved. Thankyou for the wonderful work you do !"

– Yvonne Nobel

"Her treatments are excellent and the results are outstanding

I used Miriam throughout my IVF cycles and pregnancy and found her knowledge and treatment put my mind at ease, not to mention made me feel amazing. I wish I had gone sooner! Miriam is extremely knowledgeable and professional and her welcoming nature made me feel right at home. Miriam offers a warm and friendly environment and takes the time to listen and understand your needs at each session. I couldn't recommend her highly enough."

– Rebecca Austin

My treatment began to work from day one. She achieved what no one else has been able to do. I thoroughly recommend her. It is a pleasure to receive treatments. Thankyou so much."

Such a supportive and welcoming experience. Every treatment is assisting with achieving the health and wellbeing goals we have identified together. So much care and attention, I can't recommend highly enough."

"Professional, competent and kind-hearted

Miriam is a professional, competent and kind-hearted acupuncturist. I have complete faith in her treatments, herbal formulas and advice. Miriam has assisted me with many difficult health issues and I always feel reassured and confident about my healing due to her support."

– Ange

"I achieved amazing results!

Miriam is amazing and extremely knowledgeable and talented and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Thanks to her I no longer suffer from a very debilitating sciatic pain and was able to get through a very stressful period in my life feeling revived and in a very good place again. Her welcoming practice is serene and relaxing and Miriam makes you feel very comfortable throughout the process, with complete trust in her skills and treatment. As part of my treatment she used Gua Sha which I found to be a fascinating experience, with a very tangible and visible result, and together with the herbal supplement and acupuncture I achieved amazing results. Her ILA + AVA organic skincare products are beautiful too!"
