Paul Rockliff
Doctor of Chinese Medicine
Meet Paul, your AHPRA registered Doctor of Chinese Medicine.
My practice is built on a simple philosophy: healing happens best in a space where you feel seen, supported and truly listened to. That’s why I offer relationship-based treatments that go far beyond symptom management, they’re about meaningful, lasting change.
I have completed a Bachelor of Health Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) where I achieved the UTS Faculty of Science Dean’s Merit Award for Academic Excellence. I have also undertaken additional TCM studies at the Southern School of Natural Therapies (SSNT) in Melbourne and have studied Biological Sciences at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). I regularly enhance my learning by attending a broad range of seminars and workshops to deepen my theoretical knowledge and hone my practical skills as a Chinese Medicine Practitioner.
What sets my practice apart is the quality of care and the depth of connection I build with my clients. I don’t rely on quick fixes or one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I create space for long-term, sustainable outcomes that honour the complexity of each individual’s health journey. I work collaboratively with my clients, exploring the root of your symptoms and gently guiding your body back into balance using Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Medicine and a range of other natural therapies.
If you’re ready to feel better, reconnect with your body and be supported every step of the way, I’d love to work with you.
At the core of my treatment philosophy lies the TCM concept of ‘Ben & Biao’ or Root and Branch, in which not only the manifesting symptoms are treated (Branch) but also the deeper underlying disharmonies (Root) that gave rise to those symptoms.
