Kirsten Wolfe
My teaching style is practical, straightforward , engaging and fun.
Hi, I'm Kirsten Wolfe the director of Mornington Chinese Medicine, an acupuncture only clinic and I'm honoured to work with a team of 7 talented Acupuncturists.
After successfully treating fertility, pregnancy & birth for over 16 years, The Fertile Life™ method was designed by me, it is an accumulation of my study, clinical experience and unique knowledge.
My practice solely focuses on treatment of Reproductive and Women’s health conditions such as infertility (natural and IVF), pregnancy, pre birth, labour and post natal.This has allowed me to become extremely knowledgeable in the field of fertility. Known as “the baby maker” by my patients and professional colleges. I have treated thousands of couples and helped them conceive from the easiest cases to the most difficult where I was their last chance.
I have attended lots births as both a Doula (birth attendant) & acupuncturist over the past 16 years in the public & private system. I also run birth workshops for couple - Creating Better Births.
I have built a strong reputation on the Mornington Peninsula in gynaecology and fertility providing optimum patient care pre and post natal alongside midwives, gynaecologists, obstetricians and IVF specialists. I have trained under Fertility experts such as Randine Lewis (The Fertile Soul Method), Brandon Horne, Yaron Seidman, Jane Lyttleton and Debra Betts, plus I attended the Integrative Fertility Symposium in Vancouver with over 18 presenters this year. This has built a vast knowledge of Chinese Reproductive Medicine.

Kirsten is one of the most engaging and enthusiastic presenters I have seen. Her knowledge in the areas of fertility, pregnancy and birth is outstanding and presented in a way which is understandable and not overwhelming. I would recommend her to anyone interested in this area of Chinese Medicine
A great comprehensive course. I feel inspired and excited to implement these new skills and approach. A strong focus on utilising western medical tests to benefit TCM treatments and positive pregnancy outcomes. Highly recommend!
"Thank you so much for such an incredibly inspiring, passionate, dedicated, wise, brilliant seminar! I could have done days more! You made the hours feel like seconds. I loved every bit. I went straight back to my clinic confident, clear, excited and immediately put the new knowledge I had gained into practice. Thank you."
"Kirsten presented herself. Human, relatable and modern.. Not some boring old stiff reading from a text that is 100 year old. She gave real life examples and told it how it is."
