Eastwest fertility is located within the Ashgrove Wellbeing Centre and is operated by Jennifer Byrne, MEd; BHSc (Acup); Cert. Chinese Medicine (China); Dip Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM); Fellow AACMA. Jenny has a special interest in infertility, pregnancy and Women's Health. Her skill at treating these disorders comes from 20 years clinical experience in using acupuncture, Chinese herbs and other therapies to promote fertility, support healthy pregnancies and babies and rectify Women's Health disorders. Her practice fuses the past with the modern where she combines traditional Chinese medicine principles and treatments with Western medicine knowledge, protocols and nutritional supplementation.

Jenny studied Chinese Medicine in Australia and overseas. Her four year training was completed in 1987 and included an internship in the Red Cross Hospital in Hangzhou, China where she worked in the Chinese Medicine gynaecology and obstetric department. Since, she has kept up with advances in both Chinese and Western medicine reproductive health and infertility through seminars, conferences and education.

Jenny has a Master of Education and her committment to the education of future Chinese Medicine practitioners is reflected in the ten years she has been lecturing. She lectures at the Australian College of Natural Medicine (ACNM) in reproductive health and gynaecology and obstetrics. As a senior lecturer she lectures and supervises students in clinic at intermediate levels in acupuncture and at advanced levels in acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine.
