Dr Adam Hjort is an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner based in Ashmore on the Gold Coast. He works from Unit 1, 151 Cotlew Street, Ashmore QLD 4214, and offers treatment for people who prefer a more natural, whole-body approach to health.
His main services include acupuncture treatment, herbal medicine consultations, cupping therapy, and moxibustion therapy. Each appointment is kept practical and calm, with the focus on helping the body settle down and supporting everyday wellbeing.
Acupuncture is used to help with balance in the body. It involves thin, sterile needles placed in specific points. Many people find the sessions relaxing, and over time regular visits can suit different goals, depending on what is going on for them.
Herbal medicine consultations are another part of the care plan. These consultations help work out what might be helpful and how herbs can fit into day-to-day life. The aim is to keep things simple and manageable, rather than complicated.
Cupping therapy and moxibustion therapy may also be used as part of treatment. Cupping involves creating gentle suction on the skin, which some people use to ease tightness and support recovery. Moxibustion uses heat therapy to complement acupuncture, and it can be a comforting option when it suits the person’s needs.
Dr Hjort sees patients from all walks of life, including people who are dealing with long-term discomfort, those who feel run down, and people who simply want to explore options beyond standard care. At times, acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be used alongside other health support, depending on the situation.
There is no lot of fuss in the clinic. Appointments are designed to be steady and easy to follow, with enough time to talk through what’s happening and what kind of treatment plan makes sense. If you’re looking for a calm, local clinic in Ashmore that offers acupuncture and Chinese medicine, Dr Adam Hjort’s practice is a good place to start.
