ABOUT DR JACQUELINE HENG (CHINESE MEDICINE)

Jacqueline is a gentle, thoughtful and calm practitioner with a holistic approach to the health of her clients. She has a keen focus in the areas of Dermatology (adult and paediatric) and Women's Health in the field of Gynaecology, Fertility, Pre-birth and Post-natal care.  Through her exposure to a broad spectrum of illnesses, she also treats a wide range of health issues, from the common cold and musculoskeletal problems, to more complex cases. 

Jacqueline obtained her Bachelor of Health Science in Chinese Medicine from SSNT (Victoria), and was awarded "Excellence in Clinic" for her hard work, high standards and excellent clinic skills that she continually upheld during her clinical experience at school.  She is registered with the Chinese Medicine Registration Board of Victoria (CMRBV) under Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), and Australian Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine Association (AACMA).  Jacqueline also assisted in clinical supervision at Torrens University, Victoria (formerly Think Education) in both acupuncture and Chinese medicine student clinics.

Her passion for Chinese Medicine was ignited at a young age, drawing from her Malaysian Chinese heritage.  Afflicted with problematic skin conditions such as urticaria and eczema, Jacqueline remembers the numerous trips to the doctors’ and skin specialists’ offices.  It was not until she was treated with Chinese Medicine did her frequent skin flare-ups were under control and eventually, disappeared.  As Chinese Medicine was a strong element in her culture and household from a tender age,  this has greatly influenced her practice to further share her knowledge and experience in helping others.
