ABOUT US

Vincent attained a master of Osteopathy and a Bachelor of Applied Science from Unitec Institute of Technology in New Zealand in 2015.  After graduating he went to work in Australia for a few years and then brought his skills back to his home turf of West Auckland. Vincent’s treatment style investigates causality of injury and aims to prevent recurrence of injury, not only with a structural and mechanical osteopathic approach, but by also providing clients with the knowledge they require to further maintain their wellbeing. With an extensive background of playing and spectating rugby and baseball/softball, he has a keen interest in sports performance, injury prevention and rehabilitation. This was reflected in his research, where he worked with a Super Rugby franchise, analysing dysfunctional movement patterns and their potential to lead to the development of injury.

Dewi treats patients of all ages, with a special interest in babies and new mothers. ​ Her approach is gentle and holistic, combining hands-on osteopathic techniques such as massage, stretching, joint mobilisation, cupping, and cranial osteopathy, alongside breathwork and movement therapy. She has a particular interest in supporting babies with colic, feeding difficulties, and sleep issues, as well as providing reassurance and care for parents during this time. Dewi believes the best outcomes come from working collaboratively with her patients. She takes time to understand each person’s concerns, clearly explains her treatment approach, and develops care plans that align with individual needs, goals, and lifestyles. Building trust is central to Dewi’s practice. She aims to create a safe, supportive environment where patients feel comfortable, heard, and well cared for. Outside of the clinic, Dewi enjoys training in Muay Thai, horse riding, walking her dog, and spending time with her family and young son.

Rachel is always saying she loves what she does! She loves the simplicity of Chinese medicine (CM). She enjoys the mechanical aspect of musculoskeletal treatments. She uses CM to encourage faster healing and recovery and supplement the body's energy and postural awareness to prevent repetitive injuries from occurring. She also specialises in digestive issues, women’s health, ART and fertility as well as obstetrics.  And teaches pilates classes, focusing on better postural alignment. Rachel (Ngāpuhi) has always had a strong calling to her Chinese and Maori culture. Believing there are gems in the philosophies of indigenous cultures that should be passed into the fast-paced Western culture. Allopathic medicine has a reductionist approach, breaking down the individual pieces, whereas Chinese medicine is more holistic, looking at the interconnectedness of various signs and symptoms and the story they tell. It is not about taking a path of meditation and abstinence but incorporating small conscious everyday acts that nurture you to well-being teaching yourself not to be too busy for you. When not treating Rachel is chasing her Kōtiro around and sorting things around the clinic.

Gareth completed his 4 years of study to gain his Bachelor of Health Science in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (CM) at the New Zealand School of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (NZSATCM) which is New Zealand’s leading institution of its kind. He was first introduced to the concepts of CM through his involvement in Tai Chi and martial arts as they require an extensive understanding of human physiology and body movement. When learning martial arts, injuries are not uncommon, therefore acupuncture and tui-na (a Chinese form of massage) are often used to speed up recovery time. Gareth has effectively treated a vast range of conditions and health concerns using Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture as well as modern methods and tools such as heat lamps, electro-acupuncture and fascial manipulation. These vary from treatment for injuries, musculoskeletal pain, headaches, digestive dysfunctions, mood disorders, and women’s health. When not working with us Gareth is teaching and training at his martial arts school - Enlightenment Martial Arts in Mt Eden.  When he isn't training or healing he is chasing his two little humans around.
