1991 she established a private practice specialising in pregnancy and women’s
health care.
She began specifically developing and teaching acupuncture courses to
midwives in 1997. This led to the publication of articles on the subject of the use
of acupuncture in obstetric practice in 1999 and the publication of her book The
Essential Guide to Acupuncture in Pregnancy & Childbirth in 2006, which has
subsequently been published in German and French.

team of acupuncturists working within a fertility unit. She lectures internationally on the use of obstetric
acupuncture and resides with her family in Wellington, New Zealand.
