NEW STUDIES 1
The Kyolic Garlic & Aerobic Fitness Trial
Arterial stiffness is a cardiovascular risk factor, which increases naturally with age. Kyolic garlic has been shown to improve the flexibility of arteries, and slows down blood flow, which may improve oxygen uptake, associated with aerobic fitness.
NEW STUDIES 2
Doctor of Chinese Medicine
BSc, BHSc
Please note that Dr Sonic Searle consults at NIIM on Fridays.
I began my journey in healthcare with a Bachelor of Science at the University of Melbourne, where I majored in neuroscience and physiology, with the original intention to pursue a degree in medicine. Dealing with some health issues of my own, I derived great benefit from Chinese medicine which led me to pursue further studies in Chinese Medicine.
During my Chinese Medicine studies, I had the privilege of expanding my knowledge internationally. In 2018, I spent time living and studying in China, immersing myself in the cultural roots of the traditional practice. The following year, I completed an internship at the Tzu Chi Hospital in Taiwan, working in their Integrative Medicine Department. This experience was transformative, as it allowed me to see how Eastern and Western medical approaches can work together to provide comprehensive care.
I am passionate about using this blend of science and tradition to help patients achieve optimal health. My goal is to provide patient centred, holistic care that empowers individuals to take charge of their well-being, drawing on the best of both worlds to create personalised treatment plans and help patients achieve their health goals.
