Acupuncture at Terrey Hills.


Can you believe I've been at Terrey Hills now since August 2018?! It's been great being part of a Medical Practice in the suburbs. A medical practice with a doctor that is welcoming of other modalities in the practice makes for a more wholistic approach to healthcare. The Allied & Complementary Medicine team at the surgery includes a Physiotherapist, Massage therapist, Functional Nutritionist and myself providing Acupuncture. The doctors are Dr Sofia Ambreen and Dr Javad Maleki.

The team at Terrey Hills Family Surgery are who I would refer to for:

Massage - Martina Link

Martina Link Massage Therapist

Martina trained as a physiotherapist in Germany, but now calls the Northern Beaches her home. She practicies Lymphatic Drainage Massage which can assist clients with lymphoedema, sports injuries and clients undergoing cancer treatment. She uses kinesiotape and strapping/ taping methods to help improve lymphatic drainage around sites of injury and pain. Martina also does provide Remedial Massage Therapy for general aches and pains, relaxation and stress management.
