Melbourne Acupuncture & Wellness Centre

Not only is Farzarneh a great practitioner, she is a wonderful person. Knowledgeable, caring and healing are the words that instantly come to mind.
I have been seeing Farzarneh regularly for over 4 years and highly recommend her services.

Farzaneh is so caring and makes you feel like you are catching up with a friend. I would definitely recommend Farzaneh and her services

MY FAVOURITE PERSON IN THE ENTIRE WORLD! First started seeing Farzaneh a year and a half ago. I broke my back and suffer with chronic back pain. Looking for ways to alleviate the pain, I was suggested to try Farzaneh. It was an incredible experience - the lightness, the euphoria that comes with acupuncture and cupping was on another level I had yet to experience.

Fast forward to today - I now see Farzaneh religiously EVERY WEEK! My treatment consists of acupuncture on the front and on the next week - the back.

When being 'acupunctured' I try to meditate on the feeling of the needles and WOW - this is another experience all together. I especially love the needles on the front including the face - and NO - it is not painful whatsoever. Ignore your consciousness of 'needles are bad' 'needles are sore' blah blah - you will deny yourself an experience like no other! Think ZEN!

When doing acupuncture on the back, Farzaneh can 'finish' off the session with cupping - again, I highly recommend cupping after acupuncture, you will feel rejuvenated and alive.

Farzaneh (and her beautiful staff) can also assist with many REAL alternative supplements/health-food-bars/teas/creams/potions & ointments - which too, can assist you with your issues. Try the Magnesium oil spray thing, I sleep like a baby when using this before bed.

Farzaneh is a one off! Not one in a million or one in a billion, but pure and simple A ONE OFF! She is a blessing to this planet. Do yourself, your families and your bodies a HUGE favour and book yourself in and have some ZEN FOR BREAKFAST/LUNCH OR TEA- but please, do not bump me from my usual weekly appointment ;)

Oh, I also refer all friends and family to her. Best friend has degenerative disc disease on C6, C7 and C8 with other issues affecting other discs. He was in severe pain EVERY DAY. I took him as I couldn't stand to see him in so much pain.after 1 session, YES 1 session - he was pain free and could move his neck in ways he was unable too.

Everyone I send to her keep on coming back for Zen for Breakfast.

(note: I have copied this from my other review of Farzaneh - as it should have probably been posted here)

I started seeing Farzaneh for acupuncture and Chinese Herbal medicine treatment recently and I'm already feeling so much more grounded and relaxed than I was a few weeks back.

There's been such a huge change in me since my first visit, I noticed this even after my first appointment at which point, I was feeling so low and constantly lathargic.

Farzaneh has helped me so much. Since receiving her treatment, my energy levels have improved immensely, I'm sleeping and eating better, and most importantly, I feel happy.

Farzaneh also has a very healing touch and is genuinely one of the kindest people I've ever met. I feel so happy and lucky, thank you so much lovely lady

Farzaneh was without doubt the missing link to my journey into motherhood. She brought an aura of calm and warmth to my life like no other and I feel truly blessed to have found her & her practice. Appointments with her were simply magical and they transported me every single time to a place of peace, that my otherwise chaotic life was unable to bring. This weekly peace, I feel, allowed my body the space it needed to welcome my beautiful baby boy’s journey into this world and for that I will be forever grateful. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I have had about four sessions with Farzaneh, as soon as you walk in she makes you feel at ease and welcomed! Her presence is really calming, sits you down for a consultation and hears your main concerns! I found out about her through two patients at the women’s hospital and a friend for fertility, she is currently trying to help Induce my pregnancy and help with pelvis and back pain with cupping and acupuncture! Every time I leave the appointment my back pain gets better! Thankyou Farzaneh, I will continue to see her post-natal for my back and pelvis.

Farzaneh was recommended to me when I was past my due date by my sister - who was recommended her by her friend when she was pregnant etc. I think this says a lot about Farzaneh. My son arrived 2 days before his induction date!:) just at the right time. I do believe Farzaneh creates magic, and her method is very caring. I highly recommend seeing her.

I’ve been seeing Farzaneh for about 1 year and she is amazing! I’ve seen other acupuncturists in the past and never really enjoyed the treatments; especially considering I have a needle phobia!
My wife made my appointment with Farzanah and I cannot believe how different my experience was vs other practitioners I’ve seen. From the moment I met Farzaneh I felt at ease; she emanates such a beautiful calm yet vibrant energy.
I mentioned my needle phobia and she was so gentle that I didn’t even notice the needles going in! Farzaneh also helps me with a reoccurring back pain with cupping. Cupping with Frazanah is the most relief I’ve had with my pain after slipping a disc 10 years ago; I’ve tried many different modalities in the past however cupping has been the most successful.
After a treatment with Farzanah I feel so balanced and calm! If you are looking to add a little self-care into your day book an appointment, you won’t regret it!

Farzaneh is absolutely magical! Walking into her clinic you instantly feel at ease and upon meeting Frazaneh you truly feel her loving healing aura; like no one you have ever meet before.
I started seeing her about 18 months ago and now I honestly cannot imagine my life without her. I was lucky enough to see Farzaneh before attempting to get pregnant and with her healing hands we were lucky enough to conceive on our first attempt. We continued with acupuncture throughout the pregnancy and we have been blessed with a happy, healthy, calm baby boy who arrived right on time!
I credit Farzaneh’s treatments to helping me achieve and enjoy my pregnancy.
If you are looking for a practitioner that goes the extra mile for her patients and creates a beautiful calm environment then go see Farzaneh, you will not regret it!

Amazing care and results, I have been seeing Farzanah for a month now for sciatic pain and the pain has now stopped. She knows exactly what she is doing, a true professional! I have suffered for years now, trying various methods that have not worked. I will continue to see her for maintenance. Book in to see her you won't be disappointed. Thank you Farzanah.

I have been visiting Golden health acupuncture for almost a year now. Frazaneh has helped me through many health/stress related problems but also been a strong support system in helping me reach my goals. She is like no other acupuncturist i’ve seen in Melbourne, she cares about her clients on another level, providing you with all you need to come back to a state of balance. She works from the heart, I feel so much love and understanding everytime I step into her office. I highly recommend doing yourself a favour and checking out her clinic. Forever thankful. - Autumn x

Farzaneh encompasses the true meaning of holistic. It is her healing personality and healing hands combined with her deep understanding of the human soul and chinese medical practice which makes any session with her so uniquely therapeutic. If you have ever had misgivings about complementary medicine this experience will totally dispel them. I cannot recommend Farzaneh enough.

I have been treated for thirty years by acupuncturists from the US, China, Japan, and Europe. But no one matches the gifted Farzaneh Ghaffari, in Melbourne, Australia, for her diagnosis, deftness, and sensitivity. Her brilliant intuition alone places her in a category far above all the others.

Farzaneh has the healing hands of an angel. Suffering with carpal tunnel I was advised to have both hands operated. A monthly session of acupuncture and cupping at Golden Health and Healing I have avoided surgery and can continue to weight train at a competition level. I highly recommend you try Farzaneh, you will not be disappointed!

Farzaneh is fantastic! My wife and I started seeing her around 14 years ago. She is extremely kind, caring and knowledgeable. She continues to answer our questions and provide advice and guidance on health and general wellbeing to this day - always our first contact for health matters. I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism and genuine concern for patients.

After a year of trying for a baby and no success, a friend recommended Farzaneh to me. I am so glad I went. She is one of the most caring and kind people I have ever met. I started the IVF process and Farzaneh has been the person to keep me positive and sane. Her treatements leave me feeling calm and relaxed and I look forward to them every week. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Farzaneh

Farzaneh is an absolute wizard! She is everything that is right with the world.
I have been seeing Farz for over ten years, whenever I’m not feeling quite right. She has helped me in so many ways over the years and most recently helped us to fall pregnant. I highly highly recommend Farz to anyone looking to anyone needing help with their mind, body or spirit. Magical Farzaneh is your woman.

Thanks to Farzaneh's induction acupuncture when I was 40 weeks pregnant, I avoided the chemical-laden, invasive hospital induction the Women's made me book - I went into spontaneous labour 2 days later and delivery naturally!

Since my daughter's birth I've been back to see Faz for pain associated with breastfeeding, for general well-being amidst the emotion upheaval of new-motherhood, and to support recovery for adrenal stress.

Faz has such a gentle, nurturing manner - I always leave a session feeling so much more calm, positive and healthy than before! Multiple friends in my mother's group have had great success with her IVF support treatment and other women's and pre/postnatal issues too.

Farzaneh is an incredibly caring, gentle and wonderful practioner. She has helped me tremendously over the year and always has time to talk to you about any questions you have. Highly recommend her.
