Lauren Gannon
(She/her)
Lauren’s is one of the Directors of East Melbourne Acupuncture. She is a warm and gentle practitioner. Her love and passion for Chinese medicine and acupuncture began from her own journey to investigate and identify solutions into everyday health issues that individuals face as a result of the lifestyle and environmental conditions we live under.
She believes that many of the health problems we see today can be attributed to stress and our modern lifestyle. She has a particular interest in treating complex health conditions such as chronic pain and gynaecological issues including endometriosis and PCOS. She also has experience treating chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and recurrent infections.
Lauren has been practicing for nearly 10 years now. She completed her Bachelor of Health Science (Chinese Medicine) degree at the Southern School of Natural Therapies and undertook an internship in Taiwan, at the Tzu Chi Buddhist Hospital where she gained experience working within various departments.
Lauren is a registered Chinese medicine practitioner and a member of the Australian Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Association (AACMA). Consultations with Lauren Gannon are covered by all major private health funds.
Lauren also has a Bachelor of Business (Accounting) and worked as a financial accountant for a few years before returning to university study. Her interests outside of the clinic include long walks, weight training and enjoying sipping coffee at cafes.
Lauren is available for appointments on Friday & Saturday.
