Dr Shona Ferrier

How she came to Chinese medicine

She came to Chinese medicine as a patient. While working as a political lobbyist in London, her own health reached a point where Western medicine had run out of answers, and Chinese medicine turned it around. It changed her life enough that she retrained, while raising four children. In 2018 she moved her family from Scotland to Australia for a new life, and settled in the Dandenong Ranges.

Life has brought some big chapters since. Shona is a solo mum of four, and she is proud of the life she has rebuilt and of the inner work she has done along the way, the same work she now guides others through. She knows what helps and what doesn’t, because she has lived it.

What she loves working with

She treats the physical symptoms and pays just as much attention to what is happening emotionally, because in Chinese medicine the two are never separate. Her training and her own experience let her see the patterns people are living in, and help them change them.
