About Dr. Mira An
Dr. Mira An is one of Melbourne’s most uniquely qualified Chinese medicine practitioners.
She holds three separate degrees – Chinese Medicine, Human Biology, and Nutritional Science. This combination is rare. Dr. Mira brings three together in every consultation.
Born into a Korean family with deep roots in Asian healing traditions, Mira believes true health is achieved when the body, mind, and internal systems are treated together – not in isolation.
She is also a Clinical Supervisor at RMIT University, where she mentors the next generation of Chinese medicine practitioners. This academic role keeps her clinical knowledge current and evidence-informed.
Her most distinctive credential:
Advanced dermatology training at Kyung Hee University Hospital in Seoul, Korea – one of Asia’s premier integrative medicine institutions, globally recognised for Korean Medical skin care.

Clinical Expertise
Fertility & IVF Acupuncture - Ringwood
Dr. Mira has over a decade of clinical experience in reproductive health. She has worked alongside major Melbourne fertility clinics including Monash IVF.
Her fertility programs may support:
- Hormonal regulation and cycle optimisation
- Egg quality and ovarian reserve support
- IVF preparation — from stimulation through to embryo transfer
- Pre- and post-transfer acupuncture (Paulus Protocol)
- Sperm quality support for male factor fertility
- Postpartum recovery and hormonal rebalancing
Her Nutrition degree adds a clinical dimension most fertility acupuncturists don’t have. Dietary protocols and gut-hormone support are integrated into every fertility program alongside TCM treatment.

Korean Cosmetic Acupuncture - Ringwood
Dr. Mira’s cosmetic acupuncture program is built on training from Kyung Hee University Hospital in Seoul – where Korean Medical dermatology is taught at a world-leading level. This gives her access to techniques and protocols not widely available in Australian practice.
Her approach: beauty starts in the gut. She addresses hormonal balance and digestive health alongside facial treatment — because skin problems are rarely just skin-deep.
Her cosmetic and skin programs include:
Well-Ageing & Facial Rejuvenation
A natural alternative to fillers or Botox. Stimulates collagen, improves circulation, and releases facial tension through Korean acupuncture face-lifting techniques.
Acne Treatment Program
A drug-free approach for adult and hormonal acne. Combines facial acupuncture with topical herbal extracts and nutritional therapy to target the internal inflammation driving breakouts.
Chronic Skin Conditions
Holistic management of rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, and skin changes associated with hormonal shifts.
Women's Health & Hormonal Balance
Hormonal skin problems, PCOS, menstrual irregularity, and postpartum depletion all sit at the intersection of Dr. Mira’s three areas of expertise.
She commonly supports:
- Hormonal acne and cycle-related skin disruption
- PCOS – hormonal, metabolic, and skin manifestations
- Postpartum recovery and hormonal rebalancing
- Menopause-related skin changes, mood, and vitality

Nutritional Therapy & the Gut-Skin-Hormone Axis
Most acupuncturists provide general dietary advice. Dr. Mira holds a formal BSc (Nutrition) – meaning her dietary guidance is grounded in clinical nutritional science.
This is especially valuable for:
- Inflammatory skin conditions with a dietary component
- Fertility optimisation through preconception nutrition
- Hormonal balance and PCOS management
- Postpartum recovery and energy restoration
Her Clinical Style
Patients describe Dr. Mira as professional yet deeply nurturing – clinically confident and personally warm.
She takes time to explain the reasoning behind every part of a treatment program. Her goal is patient education – equipping people with strategies they can use beyond the clinic.
At your first appointment, you can expect:
- Full health, skin, and reproductive history
- TCM assessment – tongue and pulse diagnosis
- Nutritional and dietary review
- Constitutional diagnosis using 5-Element framework (for cosmetic and skin patients)
- A personalised treatment plan with clear priorities
- Acupuncture treatment in most first sessions
Initial appointments: 60-75 minutes
