Rachel McGrath

I graduated from the NZ School of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, and hold a Diploma of Acupuncture, Diploma of Tuina (Chinese massage) and am now completing Chinese Herbal medicine.
I am a member of the NZ Register of Acupuncturists.

I have experience in, and thoroughly enjoy, supporting women in fertility healthcare, whether natural or by assisted reproductive technologies.
During pregnancy I can help with problems that may arise such as nausea, back pain, anxiety, breech/posterior positions and preparing the mother for birth.
Following from this I like to assist in post-natal health.
I regularly do talks at ante-natal groups on how acupuncture and acupressure can assist at this time.

My holistic approach looks at every woman individually, aiming to address all her needs.

I also treat male fertility, and am happy to teach a woman’s support people acupressure points helpful during labour.

Prior to my studies I lived in Asia for 3 years where I informally followed my interest in Traditional Chinese medicine and Asian philosophy. I also hold a Bachelor of Arts in Anthropology.

I am readily available by phone or email to answer any questions.
