Dr Frances Tobeck
Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine
I provide evidence informed acupuncture and integrative medicine for women seeking deeper answers to complex hormonal, reproductive, inflammatory and skin concerns. My clinical work combines acupuncture, personalised herbal medicine, functional medicine principles, advanced testing, nutrition and nervous system regulation within a highly individualised treatment approach.
My clinical focus includes:
Fertility optimisation and IVF support
Recurrent miscarriage and immune-mediated fertility presentations
Endometriosis, Adenomyosis, and chronic pelvic pain
PCOS, irregular cycles and ovulatory dysfunction
Perimenopause and metabolic hormonal transitions
Acne, rosacea and hormonally driven skin concerns
Care that looks beyond symptom management
Treatment is built around understanding why symptoms are happening and identifying the systems contributing to them.
My approach often explores the interplay between:
Hormonal signalling and ovulatory function
Inflammation and immune dysregulation
Gut and reproductive microbiome health
Nervous system and stress physiology
Metabolic function and blood sugar regulation
Detoxification, nutrient status and mitochondrial health
As an AHPRA-registered Chinese medicine practitioner and qualified herbal dispenser, I combine acupuncture with herbal medicine to provide personalised care for complex and chronic conditions. My herbal medicine training allows me to tailor prescriptions to each person’s needs, with a particular focus on women’s health, fertility, skin and hormonal conditions.
Consultation locations are in Windsor, Melbourne on Fridays, and the Ballarat Clinic on Wednesday and Thursdays.
