Acumen Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs

ABOUT KARINA — ACUPUNCTURE & CHINESE MEDICINE

I’m Dr Karina Spicer, a registered Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner with 18 years of clinical experience, trained in both Australia and China. I am the founder of Acumen Acupuncture & Chinese Herbs in Bentleigh, Melbourne, where I combine classical Chinese medicine with modern clinical insight to help people understand their bodies, restore balance, and move toward long‑term health with clarity and confidence.

My approach is gentle, precise, and deeply personalised. Every treatment begins with listening — to your symptoms, your story, and the subtle patterns your body reveals through tongue, pulse, sleep, digestion, mood, and other factors. From there, I identify the underlying pattern and create a treatment plan that feels both grounded and achievable.

I use acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine — individually tailored formulas of 6–14 herbs designed to support your unique pattern — and Food as Medicine, alongside moxibustion, cupping, and lifestyle guidance. These therapies support a wide range of conditions including hormonal health, fertility, stress and mood, digestion, pain, fatigue, male health and complex multi‑system presentations. My goal is always the same: to help you understand why your symptoms are happening and what we can do to shift them.
