Mackay Acupuncture Natural Medicine

Dr. Mark McAuliffe

Mark is a 30 year Australian registered Acupuncturist in Mackay with a strong focus on doing his best with acupuncture and other healing modalities to alleviate your pain and to get you well.  Some common ailments he treats regularly are back, neck and joint pain, digestive and weight loss issues, hormonal problems, headaches, infertility, stress and anxiety. From many years of practice Mark understands that treating the symptoms alone does not cure or give the patient long lasting relief from their suffering.  The overall pattern or root cause, needs to be addressed in the diagnosis and treatment.

There are many different types and styles of Oriental Medicine being practiced around the world.  “I have done my fair share of different methods since 1980 including TCM, Tan, Tung, Zhu scalp, Korean and Tsuyoshi Shimamura Nagano styles.  It was in late 2021 that l came across a system called Neoclassical Acupuncture created by Dr Slate Burris.

The paradigm shift with this method is that all diagnosis is done by palpating the body to check if there are meridians, organs, elements, branches or obstacles being blocked.  Within 1 to 5 minutes the whole body can be assessed by palpation with instant feedback from the patient.  According To Dr Slate Burris, this method is phenomenal because of its deep understanding of energetic architecture and structure, the practitioner often only needs to place one needle in the patient to get vast energetic changes in the body, which often equates to removal of pain or most of the pain immediately”.

Stress - Anxiety and Depression

Stress can impact on our daily life by affecting our general health and wellbeing over time. Acupuncture with western medicine may give great improvement for people suffering with anxiety or other emotional disorders using balance method and shen harmonisation. It may also help addictive patterns. We also use the NADA protocol for ear and body acupuncture for these disorders.

Weight Loss program

Initially, we’ll carry out a comprehensive palpatory feedback analysis of your body systems to determine which internal organs need harmonizing and then combine ear and body acupuncture weekly, herbal and homeopathic medicine to improve your digestion and reduce stress, a mindset adjustment and last but not least a high protein, low fat and carbohydrate food program to get your weight moving in the right direction.

You can easily lose 3-5kg or more in the first week and then a 0.5-1kg a week until you have reached your goal body size if you stick to the behealthy food program. Naturally the weight loss will vary for every individual.

NCA - One Needle Acupuncture

Neoclassical Acupuncture (NCA) is a revolutionary, palpatory style of Oriental Medicine which provides immediate feedback with each needle placed. What has made it one of the fastest growing styles in Australia, USA, Europe and Mexico is  its immediate efficacy  using 1 needle only with advanced training, with no need for ‘recipes’ or ‘point prescriptions.’ Diagnosis and treatment can involve up to 5 different levels: Element, Obstacle, Organ, Meridian. When treated on the three dimensional Elemental or Branches level , a persons internal awareness can activate,  which often clears all levels immediately, instantly taking away symptoms with them. The clearing of each of these levels can be immediately verified via palpation and feedback from patient.

One of the keys to the system is the incorporation of the sixth element (often referred to as Ministerial Fire and previously considered as a branch of Fire) which brings into play a more ancient motor of elemental interaction, allowing results which often seem amazing.

Recognizing the remarkableness of this system of acupuncture, Dr Mark has been organising courses, for the founder  Dr Slate Burris out to Australia every year since 2022, to train this revolutionary system to Australian Acupuncturists in  live Foundation and Advanced Masterclasses.
