About Holly
My Story
I’m Dr. Holly Brocklebank – acupuncturist, Chinese medicine practitioner and director of Innate Being Therapies.
If you’re here, you might be looking for someone who can really see you and walk alongside you through a tender or transformative chapter. That’s the space I love to hold – especially for women.
A little About me:
I grew up supported by natural therapies, so becoming a practitioner was a natural progression. When I discovered Chinese Medicine and the Daoist view of the body as a self‑healing, self‑regulating system in rhythm with nature, it felt like coming home.
I began studying acupuncture at 19 and graduated in 2000, inspired by this way of understanding health, energy and interconnectedness. Acupuncture and herbal medicine gave me a language for what I’d always sensed: symptoms are meaningful, and healing is about reconnecting with our wholeness, not just fixing problems.
My own pregnancies were a major turning point. Experiencing the power of acupuncture and acupressure through pregnancy, birth preparation and postpartum showed me how profoundly this medicine can support women at vulnerable thresholds. It anchored my dedication to menstrual health, fertility and pregnancy, and to helping women feel informed, resourced and held.
As I’ve moved into my perimenopausal years, Chinese Medicine has again been my anchor – helping me navigate hormonal shifts, sleep, mood, energy and identity with more steadiness and compassion. This lived experience has expanded my passion to include the full arc of womanhood: from first bleed through perimenopause, menopause and beyond.
Over time, my work has deepened. Around my Saturn return, I discovered Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), a practical way to meet the emotional patterns beneath physical symptoms. Later, completing Transpersonal Art Therapy led me to Five Element and esoteric styles of acupuncture. Five Element was a game changer – allowing me to work constitutionally, tend to the spirit and support deep transformation and resilience.
My areas of focus:
General Health and Vitality: women's health & emotional balance
Fertility: Men and women's, natural and assisted
Pregnancy: supporting all phases, recovery and beyond
How I practice:
I bring my 23 years of wisdom, applying a holistic and functional health perspective, particularly in the area of fertility, to address individual needs. I aim to attune, clear and align the system for deeper levels of peace, balance and resilience to support empowered health, vitality, pregnancies, flowing births and optimal recovery.
In all forms of treatment, patent herbal formulas or supplements may be prescribed to further support treatments.
