Lucia Bekker
Acupuncturist
Masters degree Acupuncture
Reg. Nurse, Midwife, Psychiatry
I started my health care career as a Nurse over 30 years ago and have enjoyed every moment of it, and as a health carer. I specifically enjoy working with the elderly and learning more about Dementia and Alzheimer’s and how to care for persons with these illnesses.
Over the past 15 years, I have expanded my knowledge to enable me to help the injured and sick by attending conferences, courses and undertaking studies in Natural medicines including Acupuncture.
I was first introduced to Acupuncture by my husband, Johann, who treated my severe knee pain through the use of Acupuncture. Unbelievable at that point of time, I was immediately convinced that Acupuncture has a healing ability and has since then worked for me in various ways over the preceding 10 years.
In 2002, I made the move to Australia with my husband and daughters and I decided to personally explore and study the versatility of Acupuncture. Since 2006 I have been practicing the use of Acupuncture in our Clinic in Tannum Sands, with fantastic results for persons of all ages, illnesses and discomforts.
Lucia enjoys working with: Feet and Ankle pain (foot joint mobilisation), Facial paralyses/pain (neuralgia), Stress and Hormonal issues, Pre-and Post Natal (pregnancy) care, Infertility support and even Cosmetic facial acupuncture. Also doing Therapeutic Massages and Pregnancy Massages.
