Japanese Acupuncture is a traditional palpation-based healing system that artfully combines the techniques of acupuncture needling and various manual approaches. Diagnosis is achieved through the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine, as well as through careful observation of your face, body, tongue, pulses, and hara, which refers to the belly area. This practice represents a refined, elegant, and thorough system that is known for being very gentle, deeply relaxing, and comfortable for recipients.
Having had the privilege of studying with esteemed Japanese Masters of Acupuncture, including Dr. Masaaki Nakano, Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei, and her cherished teacher Tsuyoshi Shimamura Sensei, Rebecca has come to sincerely believe that Japanese Acupuncture is distinctly unique compared to other healing systems. Shimamura Sensei refers to his style as 'Te A Te Hari,' which translates to 'to pour passion and heart into your hands.'
According to the World Health Organization, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture may effectively be used to treat hundreds of conditions and diseases, which can include various types of pain, allergies, insomnia, emotional and psychological disorders related to stress, as well as support for symptoms that arise during chemotherapy and radiation therapy. It is also beneficial for various gynaecological conditions, addressing both men’s and women’s health issues, digestive problems, and so much more.

Esoteric Acupuncture & New Energy Healing intricately combines the profound ancient wisdoms of Traditional Chinese Medicine; the intricate patterns of Sacred Geometry; the ancient and revered Hindu Chakra System; the transformative 361 Antahkarana Meditation Sequence, along with innovative New Encoding Patterns. Esoteric Acupuncture serves as a powerful healing tool, designed to help individuals potentially access higher vibrational energy fields and facilitate the expansion of consciousness.
An Esoteric Acupuncture session begins with a gentle consultation exploring not only physical symptoms, but also aspects of your emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing. The practitioner observes the flow of Qi through the meridians, chakras and subtle body layers, looking for areas where energy may be stagnant, depleted or misaligned. Very fine acupuncture needles are then placed at specific acupuncture points in precise sacred geometric patterns known as New Encoding Patterns. These patterns influence the human energy field by harmonising the meridian system with the Hindu chakra system and higher centres of consciousness. Each point is activated in a particular order, creating energetic relationships that encourage the body to reorganise itself into greater balance and coherence. Many people experience deep stillness during treatment as the nervous system settles and the heart field expands, allowing insight, clarity and a profound sense of inner alignment to arise. Over time, these treatments can support not only physical wellbeing but also emotional balance, spiritual awareness and a deeper connection with one’s higher purpose.
