Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese Herbal Medicine draws on thousands of years of empirical knowledge, using individualised formulas to support the body’s internal ecosystem.

Blending roots, flowers, bark, and minerals, each prescription is crafted to meet your unique constitution- nourishing, regulating, and gently restoring the body toward long-term wellbeing.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture uses ultra-fine needles to stimulate the body’s natural healing response.

By working along the meridians, acupuncture restores flow, eases tension, and brings the body back into harmony.

Each session is both a treatment and a quiet return to balance.

Kayo Karube

Massage Therapist | Reiki Master

With over a decade of experience in therapeutic massage and traditional Japanese Reiki, Kayo brings a rare combination of skilled touch, intuitive care and generations of healing wisdom to her practice.

Having supported more than 500 women through pregnancy massage, Kayo has developed a deep understanding of the body's changing needs and the importance of nurturing both physical and emotional wellbeing. Her treatments are thoughtfully tailored to each individual, offering a restorative experience that extends beyond conventional massage.

As a fourth-generation Reiki Master from a distinguished Japanese Reiki lineage, Kayo carries forward a remarkable family heritage rooted in the traditions of Japanese energy healing.

This unique connection to the practice's origins has shaped her philosophy and deepened her appreciation for the relationship between body, mind and spirit.

Blending therapeutic massage with the gentle, restorative principles of Reiki, Kayo creates a deeply calming experience designed to ease physical tension, encourage emotional balance and restore a sense of inner harmony.
