Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a comprehensive medical system that includes acupuncture, moxibustion, herbal remedies, Tuina (Chinese massage), bone setting and traumalogy, and diet therapy. John's passion is to help people achieve better health naturally. At the TCM Clinic, we are committed to provide the highest standard of Chinese medical care. We promise to explain the details about the treatment we give and answer any questions you may have.

Some of the services we offer are:

* Back Pain,
* Endometriosis,
* Fertility,
* Sports Injuries,
* Skin Problems,
* Neck & Spinal Manipulation.


At TCM practitioners believe that good health is a state of balance within the body. This balance allows the free flow of energy, blood and nourishment through all tissues and organs. Disease occurs when there is an imbalance of energies, blockage of the energy channels or a disruption of energy flow. The treatment always aims to bring the body into balance. And we'll always do our best to warrant your trust and confidence.

Specialties:

We specialize in a wide range of medical conditions from mental/emotional problems such as, but not limited to, addiction, anxiety, depression and reducing stress; to musculoskeletal problems such as, but not limited to, repetitive strain injury (RSI) and any accident covered by ACC. We also support patients with chronic conditions such as, but not limited to, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, polycystic ovaries, adrenal fatigue, arthritis and migraines.

History: Established in 2017.

After gaining a wide range of experience as an Acupuncturist and Tuina Practitioner in different settings throughout the greater Wellington Region including Hutt Hospital Maternity Acupuncture Clinic, a community outreach program at Arohata women's prison, at Bendy Buddha in Island Bay, at Achilles Clinic in Wellington Central, and as a Teaching Assistant and a Guest Lecturer at the New Zealand School of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Nate Wafstet identified a gap in the market and opened up his own clinic on The Terrace in Wellington Central where he could incorporate the experience and skills that he had acquired to build a thriving inner-city practice.

Meet the Business Owner:

After working in the US military and as an Engineer in New Zealand, Nate made a career change because he wanted to give back to the community. After researching different options he decided on training as an acupuncturist, as acupuncture is a prominent method of assisting veterans in the US. Nate is passionate about using acupuncture to help everyone, and fully believes in Traditional Chinese Medicine's ability to help and heal the broad spectrum of conditions of those coming to his practice. Nate has treated mental/emotional disorders, musculoskeletal conditions, chronic conditions as well as complex individual cases that patients may present with. There's nothing more satisfying than watching the progression of each patient when they embark upon their personal health journey, and Nate has great passion to help facilitate patients to achieve their health goals.

We offer professional health care tailored to the individual utilising Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), through Acupuncture, Tui Na, Cupping, Gua Sha, facial, deep tissue, therapeutic and relaxation massage.  Our acupuncturists are NZ Registered and ACC Treatment Providers holding minimum 4 year Bachelor of Health Science, covering aspects of both Western and Eastern Medicine.

We consider a holistic approach and we believe in treating the whole being.  In fact, every person is different, and should therefore be treated accordingly.  We also believe that body, mind and spirit are intricately linked to each other.  If your body aches, your mind will be affected, and vice versa. 

Our aim is to treat with compassion, and to take into account all aspects of an individual's condition.  In this manner we incorporate modern therapeutic techniques with traditional theories and practice, to deliver a true systematic health care system.

Acupuncture:  
Acupuncture improves the bodys functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites, commonly referred to as acupuncture points, or acupoints.  The most common method used to stimulate acupoints is the insertion of fine, sterile needles into the skin.  Pressure, heat, or electrical stimulation may further enhance the effects.  Other acupoint stimulation techniques include: manual massage, moxibustion or heat therapy, cupping, and the application of topical herbal medicines and linaments.

There is a strong research and evidence base for acupuncture's effectiveness at treating a number of conditions.  Visit our website for a more comprehensive list but examples include acute and chronic pain, immune support, hypertension, depression, fertility support, menopausal hot flushes, dysmennorhoea (menstrual pain), allergic rhinitis, induction of labour and other pregnancy related conditions (eg. turning breech babies and morning sickness).

Some specialty areas the clinic covers include:

Acupuncture for chronic pain (eg. migraines, back pain and arthritis), or acute pain and injury, including subsidized ACC Acupuncture with a valid ACC45 number.  Acupuncture is very effective at treating acute injuries.  In general, the sooner the injury is treated, the better the result. Studies show that acupuncture is effective in reducing inflammation and swelling so early treatment of an injury may considerably lessen the time needed for recovery.  Acupuncture has been shown to be useful in treating chronic pain.

Acupuncture for Mental Health concerns such as depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder and addiction.

Pregnancy Acupuncture: Treatments have been used for pregnancy-related back and pelvic pain, morning sickness, fatigue, headaches, hypertension, itching, miscarriage or threatened miscarriage, constipation and hemorrhoids, varicose veins, vulval varicosites, edema, depression, turning breech or posterior babies, pre-birth preparation, preparation for a medical induction and more.  There is a point that works to stop uterine contractions and another that is used for induction to start contractions.

Acupuncture for postpartum care may also  be helpful for insufficient or excessive lactation, mastitis, postnatal depression, fatigue and more.

Acupuncture for Women's Health: Including menopausal hot flushes, night sweats, menstrual disorders, hormonal imbalances, fertility support (also for men) and more.

Acupuncture for general well-being: Examples include digestive disorders and supporting healthy digestion, boosting the immune system, treating conditions like allergic rhinitis, fatigue or hypertension.

Massage: The clinic offers many styles deep tissue, relaxation and Traditional Chinese Massage (Tuina), acupressure and paediatric massage.
