Michele Johnson
(BHSc) Acupuncture (DIP) Nursing
I am a fully qualified and trained Chinese Medicine Practitioner with a Bachelor of Health Science. I am a member of the Chinese medicine Association (AACMA) and am registered with AHPRA (Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency) both for Chinese medicine and nursing. I have fourteen years experience in the health industry as a nurse, working at three hospitals in Brisbane across a broad range of areas including cardiac, medical, palliative, surgical and mental health, as well as running several outpatient clinics for many years.
I am a friendly, positive person with a good sense of humour who is compassionate and empathetic in my approach to care. I am committed to a high standard of care and am passionate about helping people. I have a special interest in women's health, chronic/acute pain and treating those with anxiety/stress related conditions. I am holistic in my approach and believe prevention is better than cure which aligns with my oriental medicine training belief system. I believe by supporting the bodies own inner strength and healing capability it can regain balance and restore health. When treating I draw on my knowledge in both Western and Eastern medicine to understand the presenting issue and believe this is one of my strengths in my treatments that I offer to clients. I am constantly learning and seeking knowledge and am very focused and committed to helping those that seek treatment, even if that treatment is simply to relax. I look forward to meeting new clients and interacting with the community around me.
