This broad scope allows Ethan to support clients through issues ranging from chronic pain and digestive disorders to stress, insomnia, hormonal imbalances, and emotional well-being—always with the goal of restoring balance and promoting the body’s natural healing capacity
Ethan specialises in the management of pain conditions, drawing on a range of acupuncture techniques—including local needling and the Balance Method—which engage key meridians to provide immediate and effective relief. While Ethans primary focus is pain management, he deeply acknowledges the connection between physical dis-ease and imbalances in emotional, mental, and lifestyle factors. When appropriate, Ethan shares insights, practices, and guidance rooted in the more esoteric principles of holistic healing, helping clients understand how pain often originates from energetic blockages. At the heart of his approach is a drive to offer a holistic framework that supports the realignment of body, mind, and spirit to foster lasting balance and overall well-being.
Ethan recognises that each person’s health journey is unique, and he carefully tailors every treatment to meet the individual needs of his clients. He values the opportunity to share insights into the principles behind his approach, believing that informed clients are empowered clients. With clarity and compassion, he explains the underlying imbalances from a TCM perspective, the purpose of techniques such as acupuncture, cupping, or moxibustion, and provides thoughtful self-care recommendations to support healing, resilience, and overall well-being.
Ethan considers maintaining a stance of Non-Judgment as paramount in his role as a health practitioner. Recognizing judgment as a detrimental habit pervasive in society, he believes his primary duty to any client is unconditional acceptance. By embracing clients exactly as they are, Ethan creates a non-judgmental space conducive to genuine assistance and support.

A note from Ethan…
You may have read that other paragraph I wrote, talking about not judging clients and thought “yeah right, it’s only natural to judge" or perhaps “that’s not possible to not be in judgement of others”. Well i’m here to say that not judging is one of the most freeing experiences. But it takes hard work and consistent monitoring of our thinking & self talk. Don’t get me wrong, I think we will always have judgements come up automatically in some form or another, but we don’t have to go along with it. That’s the key. We can stop judgment in its tracks as soon at it presents! and then it doesn’t cause any harm to self or other, because we have not energised it. And by not going along with it, nor judging ourselves for having the judgement, we then get the opportunity to let go of that judgement.
