Traditional wisdom for your health

Hi, I’m Ashley, an AHPRA registered Chinese medicine practitioner and acupuncturist based at Evolve Health in Wollongong.

I’ve always been drawn to caring for others, which first led me into a career in nursing. While I still deeply value the incredible life-saving work of modern medicine, over time I became increasingly interested in approaches to healthcare that look beyond symptoms alone.

After experiencing my own menstrual health challenges and searching for answers, I was introduced to acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. This experience sparked a deeper appreciation for the way Chinese medicine considers the connection between physical health, emotional wellbeing, lifestyle, and environment when supporting long-term health.

During my studies I completed a 3 week internship at an integrated hospital in China, where I was astounded to see how well Chinese medicine and Western medicine can work alongside each other.

Today, I’m passionate about providing personalised and holistic care that helps patients feel more balanced, supported, and energetic in their everyday lives. I particularly love supporting women’s health, digestive conditions and stress management.

Outside of the clinic you’ll find me enjoying walks or beach swims with my husband (he’s also called Ash) and dog Tikka, reading a book, or pottering in the kitchen or garden.
