What we treat
Services & Fees
Eight specialist services across dermatology, acupuncture, women's health, internal medicine and beyond — with a transparent, published fee schedule.
Principal specialty
Dermatology
Dr Kevin Duong's principal specialty and the cornerstone of Bao An Tang's reputation. Traditional Chinese Medicine understands skin disease through its root causes: Wind, Cold, Dampness, Dryness, Fire Heat, Emotional disturbance, and Diet. Treating from this etiology — rather than suppressing symptoms — produces lasting resolution for conditions that Western dermatology often manages only temporarily.
TCM Etiology Factors
Conditions Treated
Women's health
Gynaecology & Fertility
Bao An Tang supports women through every stage of their reproductive journey — from cycle regulation and menstrual health through to fertility preparation and menopause. The approach centres on creating the optimal internal environment for conception and implantation, addressing hormonal imbalance, blood quality, and stress through the full repertoire of TCM tools: acupuncture, herbal medicine, and food therapy.
Areas of Focus
Core modality
Acupuncture
Fine needles placed at precise meridian points regulate the body's flow of Qi and blood, triggering the nervous system's natural healing cascade. At Bao An Tang, acupuncture addresses injuries, acute and chronic pain, digestive dysfunction, fertility challenges, and weight management — as well as cosmetic and facial rejuvenation applications that stimulate collagen and micro-circulation.
Applications
Herbal medicine
Internal Medicine
Chinese herbal formulas are the most sophisticated branch of TCM pharmacology — thousands of years of clinical observation encoded into precision herb combinations. At Bao An Tang, internal medicine addresses systemic conditions, digestive disorders, chronic inflammation, immune function, and organ-level imbalances. Each formula is tailored individually after full consultation, adjusted at each follow-up as your condition improves.
Areas of Focus
Nutritional medicine
Food Therapy
Food is medicine. TCM food therapy prescribes specific dietary cures — particular foods, preparations and combinations — as direct treatment for health conditions. Rather than generic healthy eating advice, food therapy at Bao An Tang is individualized and prescriptive: what to eat, how to prepare it, and when — based on your pattern diagnosis. Delivered in conjunction with herbal medicine and acupuncture where appropriate.
Approach
Non-needle option
Laser Acupuncture
Low-level laser therapy applied directly to acupuncture points delivers the therapeutic effect of needling without insertion — making it ideal for patients with needle sensitivity, children, or areas where needling is contraindicated. The clinical applications span management of acute and chronic pain, reduction of inflammatory processes, and treatment of scarring. An effective complement to conventional acupuncture within a treatment plan.
Applications
Manual therapy
Therapeutic Massage with Pointing Therapy
Pointing therapy applies sustained pressure to specific acupuncture points using manual techniques — achieving the energetic effect of acupuncture through skilled touch rather than needles. Combined with therapeutic massage, it addresses musculoskeletal tension, nerve pain, postural dysfunction, and systemic imbalances accessible via the meridian system. An excellent treatment pathway for those seeking a tactile, hands-on experience.
Applications
Injury recovery
Sports Injury
Sports injury treatment at Bao An Tang combines multiple modalities to achieve faster, more complete recovery: acupuncture reduces pain and inflammation while promoting tissue repair; cupping mobilises blood stagnation and fascial adhesions; therapeutic massage restores range of motion; and cold laser therapy is applied where needed to accelerate cellular healing. Treatment plans are adapted to the specific injury and the patient's return-to-performance timeline.
