Acupuncture in Palmerston

Written By Collin Blake

Kia ora Palmerston — Acupuncture is Now Available at East Otago Health

My name is Collin, and I’m excited to be offering acupuncture in Palmerston at the East Otago Health Centre every Tuesday and Thursday.

Acupuncture is a gentle, time-tested form of medicine that works with the body’s own healing systems. Whether you’re dealing with pain, stress, fatigue, digestion issues, sleep trouble, menstrual or menopausal symptoms, or ongoing health concerns that just don’t seem to shift, acupuncture can help.

Each treatment is tailored to your unique body and life. My approach blends traditional Chinese medicine with a biomedical informed understanding of the nervous system. I aim to create a safe and relaxing space—somewhere you can exhale, let go, and begin to restore balance.

You don’t need to “believe” in acupuncture for it to work. You just need to show up. Many people feel calmer, clearer, and more connected to themselves after just one session.

Common Conditions I Treat:

  • Chronic and acute pain (back, neck, joints)

  • Headaches and migraines

  • Anxiety and depression

  • Insomnia and fatigue

  • Digestive complaints (IBS, bloating, nausea)

  • Hormonal imbalances, menstrual and menopausal symptoms

  • Support during fertility treatment or pregnancy

  • Recovery from stress, burnout, or illness

If you’re curious or unsure if acupuncture is right for you, I’m happy to have a quick chat before you book. You can find me at East Otago Health Centre on Tuesdays and Thursdays. To book an appointment, contact the clinic directly at 03 465 1444 or visit my website at www.siacu.nz.

I’m honoured to be a part of the Palmerston community and look forward to sharing this powerful medicine with you.
