Our Team
Our team consists of licensed and highly trained Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners dedicated to helping patients achieve better health through natural and evidence-informed care. We specialize in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, offering personalized treatments tailored to each individual’s needs.
With a strong foundation in classical TCM and years of clinical experience, we focus on treating the root causes of health concerns—not just symptoms—while ensuring treatments are safe, gentle, and effective.
Kia Ora, and Welcome to Uness Health!
I’m Tracy Chen, Founder and Partner of Uness Health. While I am not a Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, I believe true health and beauty come from balance within. As an investor focused on long-term value and sustainable lifestyles, I founded Uness Health to bridge the wisdom of Chinese medicine with modern urban living-working closely with experienced practitioners to make therapies such as acupuncture, herbal care, cupping, gua sha, and moxibustion more accessible and seamlessly integrated into everyday life.
At Uness Health, we believe clients should not be passive recipients of care, but active participants in their own health journeys. Whether through an in-clinic treatment or thoughtfully designed at-home wellness tools, our goal is to help individuals discover a personalized rhythm of health within the demands of city life.
I firmly believe that when Traditional Chinese Medicine meets modern lifestyles, wellness becomes approachable, practical, and something that can be practiced every day.

I am Joyce, a qualified and registered acupuncturist dedicated to helping patients heal naturally and restore balance in their bodies. Grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine, my approach focuses on supporting the body’s own ability to heal, rather than simply treating symptoms.
I came to NZ in 2015 after 8 years full time training in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. I was a registered Chinese Medicine doctor in China and specialize in acupuncture, cupping therapy, moxibustion, and using gentle, effective techniques to promote natural pain relief, improved circulation, reduced stress, and overall wellbeing. Each treatment is personalized, taking into account the whole person—physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors.
I have experience treating a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, sports and work-related injuries, stress, sleep disorders, digestive issues, IVF support and women’s health concerns. As an ACC-registered acupuncturist in New Zealand, I provide ACC-supported treatments for eligible injuries.
My aim is to create a calm, supportive environment where patients feel heard, cared for, and empowered in their healing journey. I believe true health comes from restoring balance and supporting the body to heal naturally and sustainably.

I’m Keith Shen, your supportive local acupuncturist in Christchurch. After eight years of mastering acupuncture and Traditional Chinese medicine in China, I arrived in New Zealand in 2025, bringing my skills and passion as a registered acupuncturist to help you feel your best.
It is all about building warm, trusting connections with my clients. My goal is to be a steady supportive presence on your wellness journey—Whether through personalized treatment plans, sharing knowledge or simply offering a listening ear. Drawing on TCM and natural therapies, I am here to walk alongside you on your path to wholeness.
My treatments include acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, Chinese herbs and Tuina. I specialize in settling gastroesophageal reflux disease with acupuncture and herbs, relieving stress and improving sleep with acupuncture and moxibustion, fading wrinkles and brightening your glow with facial cosmetic acupuncture, and treating pain and sports injuries using acupuncture paired with myofascial techniques.

I’m Cristina, an acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor who values gentle care, careful listening and personalised treatment. I hold a PhD in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and over the past eight years I have worked in specialist TCM clinics and public hospital settings in China. This background has shaped a calm and thoughtful approach to assessment and treatment, grounded in traditional principles and adapted to modern healthcare needs.
I provide acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and customised herbal medicine. I commonly support patients experiencing musculoskeletal conditions and sports injuries, digestive disorders, women’s health conditions, stress-related symptoms and sleep difficulties. Facial acupuncture can also be incorporated into treatment plans for skin concerns such as acne, while supporting circulation, tissue tone and overall facial vitality.
My treatments are guided by careful assessment and whole-body balance, with a focus on supporting steady and sustainable improvement over time. Alongside my clinical work, I practise Tai Chi, which deepens my understanding of movement, balance and the flow of Qi. I believe healing is a collaborative and unhurried process, and I aim to create a calm, welcoming space where patients feel comfortable, heard and confident in their care.

I also offer a wide range of customised facials designed to target your specific skin concerns while giving you a much-needed moment of peace.
I prioritise clear communication and thorough skin assessments, tailoring each treatment to the client’s current skin condition and providing practical home-care guidance. My goal is to help clients step away from daily stress, improve skin stability and radiance, and restore a sense of inner calm.
For me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing my clients walk out the door glowing and revitalised. I can’t wait to welcome you to the treatment room soon!
