Darren’s first exposure to Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture was in high school, when he received treatment for chronic fatigue from his soon to be career-long mentor- TCM practitioner Dr Daniel Deng. It was this experience in combination with a life-long fascination in eastern culture and martial arts that lead to Darren in the 1990’s completing a Bachelor of applied Science in Acupuncture at the Acupuncture College of Australia, through the University of Technology, Sydney, and under-pins his treatment philosophy: “My training in martial arts is integral to my understanding of body movement, mental power, patience and a deep understanding of mental and physical pain. I constantly combine this understanding with my acupuncture practice to provide wholesome treatments. The body needs diversity between the mind, body and spirit for optimum health.” Darren Geer When not at work Darren enjoys enjoys his passions of Goju Ryu Karate, Shingon Buddhism, and Calligraphy Yoga-  a combination of Yoga and Qi Gong.

What to expect at your first appointment

Your initial consultation with Darren will last up to sixty minutes and is a private 1 on 1 session (Our TCM practitioners don’t treat multiple patients at once, so we can focus on you). Darren will discuss the history of your condition, carry out a series of Traditional Chinese Medical tests, and explain the goals of treatment and answer any questions you may have. Treatments rarely cause pain, and in the case it does, it is temporary.
