Dr Michael Hammer is a Chinese medicine practitioner; registered in Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine since 2008. He completed a .degree in Chinese Medicine majoring in Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine at the Southern School of Natural Therapies (SSNT) in 2007; and a diploma of Chinese remedial massage (Tui Na) in 2011. He is a registered Chinese medicine practitioner with AHPRA and is a member of the Federation of Chinese medicine of Australia (FCMA) and a member of the Australian Traditional Medicines Society (ATMS).

In 2005 he started studying Chinese internal martial arts (such as Tai Chi), qi gong and meditation; developing a deeper understanding and familiarity with how the body and mind function. This helps his understanding in how to better prevent and resolve illnesses. This combined with a year spent working in a residential psychiatric rehabilitation programs has given him extensive techniques for assiting clients in managing their mental and emotional health.

In his early years of studying and practicing, Michael spent significant time studying with various health professionals both in and outside the Chinese medicine profession. This time was spent developing a comprehensive skills  in treating and managing musculoskeletal problems and pain management as well as emotional and psychological disorders.

Since joining the team in 2012, Michael has continued to deepen his understanding and skills; particularly in treating fertility and gynaecological conditions such as PCOS, endometriousus and ammenorrhea. This has been done both through studying the latest research, mentoring from Dr Peter Gu and shadowing him, and peer discussions on various techniques and pathology.

In 2014 he commensed a programe of study into Classical Chinese medicine, the core seminal texts upon which the medicine was based from both acupuncture and herbal traditions. Many of these original herbal formulas are still in current use today and continue to be some of the most effective. This dual focus on both Classical medicine and the latest research allows Michael greater freedom in choosing the best approach in treating stubborn unusual cases.

 “Acupuncture, Massage, Chinese herbal medicine, exercise and food therapy are all a part of Chinese medicine. Each has strengths and weaknesses. It is when they are combined correctly that you achieve the best results.”– Dr Michael Hammer

 

Lisa Milo Dip. Remedial Massage & Dip. Reflexology

I come from a long line of healers. For many years I pursued other interests, until I found my calling – to be a healer as well!

I have diplomas in Remedial Massage and Reflexology, finding that massage and reflexology complement each other perfectly. I specialise in:

  • Manual Lymphatic Drainage Massage
  • Pregnancy Massage
  • Relaxation Massage
  • Sports Massage

Volunteering at the Peter MacCallum Institute since 2004 raised my interest in treating cancer patients, who have become a fundamental part of my client base.
I now have a busy massage and reflexology practice, both in Melbourne and Gippsland. There I put my life experience and my human and healing skills to good use.
I am a member of Australian Association of Massage
