About Rachel
Rachel is a very well-known, respected and popular Acupuncturist and Herbalist who spent over 10 years practicing in Sydney before moving to Diamond Beach on the Mid Coast of NSW in 2020. During this time she has helped thousands of people in private practice seeking help with painful conditions, women’s health, fertility and pregnancy support, stress and anxiety.
Known for her genuine and caring nature. In her Sydney practice she also offered community acupuncture to the chronically ill, elderly, single mothers, mentally ill, unemployed or those in recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
These patients would have otherwise been unable to afford this type of holistic treatment and healing, which is why she made it accessible to them.
Rachel has also been an active "Surfing Mums" Group Coordinator for over 10 years, and was a committee board member of "Surfing Mums Incorporated". This is a network of groups nationwide created to encourage mums who love to surf to connect and form close knit bonds. They meet regularly for surf swaps and provide essential health and mental wellbeing support during the post natal period. These positive tribes of women assist each other in times of real emotional need, helping members to be social and stay mentally and physically fit whilst enjoying activities they love.
Rachel is genuinely passionate about raising awareness of post natal depression and anxiety, particularly focusing on reducing the alarming rate of suicide on Sydney's Northern Beaches. Her constant work with the "Surfing Mums" and fundraising is a great representation of this. She always is the first to volunteer organising gift vouchers or her services for local community group fundraisers and events such as "Fight For The Beaches", "One Eighty" Great Lakes women’s shelter and Rotary gala dinners and the "Black Dog Institute", “coastrek” and “Blast off” just to name a few.
More recently Rachel and the Diamond Surf chix team hosted a paddle out for cancer at Black Head Beach as part of the SurFebruary challenge. There was a fantastic turn out and the team raised just shy of $5000 for cancer research.
Rachel really enjoys her job and would love to look after you and your loved ones.
