Fraser Cobham is a fully qualified practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulatory Agency (AHPRA). He is also a member of the Australian Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Association (AACMA) and Chinese Medicine Board of Australia (CMBA).

Utilising his skills in herbal medicine and acupuncture, he now treats at the I Am Mind Body Soul Wellness Hub in Gerringong, as well as operating a professional home-based practice in Cambewarra, servicing Nowra and surrounds.

Over time, Fraser’s clinical practice has naturally evolved to predominately working with female specific health concerns. He has a special interest in treating women with hormonal disorders, fertility issues, IVF support, menstrual irregularities, and chronic digestive complaints. He also frequently treats musculoskeletal conditions, symptoms related to autoimmunity, sleep issues, anxiety, depression and stress.

Each year, Fraser undergoes continuing professional training in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine and professional standards to optimise his treatment strategies and outcomes. Often working collaboratively with other practitioners both within and outside his clinical practices, you can expect a consultation and treatment with Fraser to feel welcoming, safe and professional, with a strong focus on your individual needs.

As an acupuncturist and hypnotherapist, my goal is to act as a catalyst for positive change in every patient. I specialize in a unique treatment that I refer to as "hypnoacupuncture," which is a combination of acupuncture and hypnotherapy. Combining the power of hypnosis with acupuncture has proven to create treatments that are effective on all levels: physical, mental, and emotional. Many patients describe these sessions as life-altering, and find them to be more deeply relaxing than anything they have ever experienced before. I treat many patients for weight-loss and smoking cessation, but I have found that these combination sessions of hypnosis and acupuncture can benefit endless issues, including depression, anxiety, and insomnia. At Healing Point Therapeutics, my mission is to have every patient leave the treatment table prepared to reach their highest potential in health and well-being.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, disease contains two parts analogous to the roots and branches of a tree. The symptoms are like branches, and if you only treat them, the same roots will soon grow the same symptoms again. To effectively heal, one must address the root cause of the of illness so the tree may grow healthy branches. Additionally, two people may both experience a similar disease but have very different underlying root causes. Likewise, two others may have very different diseases but have the same root cause. At Rooted Medicine, Andrea Hingst L.Ac. MSOM, draws from experiences in integrated hospitals and private practice to combine traditional Chinese therapies with modern functional medicine to identify each individual’s unique foundational imbalance to heal from the roots up.
