If you like to read and be informed, below is a brief description of the different types of treatment available at ATMA. All different treatments can be combined to suit individual needs.
Treatment Approaches Back To Top...
Maintainence of a healthy body & lifestyle requires balance. The environment in which you live (dry, damp, hot, cold, windy), family genetics, viruses & bacteria, mental patterns, emotions, physical trauma, plain old wear & tear, the food we eat & the lifestyle we live all have an effect.
Recommended ATMA offers a thorough Traditional diagnosis consultation for clients who wish to get to the 'root' causes of the presenting complaint.
What is Acupuncture and how does it work ?
The ancient Chinese believed that there is a universal life energy called Chi or Qi present in every living creature. This energy is said to circulate throughout the body along specific pathways that are called meridians. As long as this energy flows freely throughout the meridians, health is maintained, but once the flow of energy is blocked, the system is disrupted and pain and illness occur. Imagine rivers that flood and cause disasters or an electrical grid short-circuiting that causes blackouts. Acupuncture works to “re-program” and restore normal functions by stimulating certain points on the meridians in order to free up the Chi energy.
Acupuncture helps many different types of complaints & illnesses;

Acupuncture Sessions: 1 hr. $70 - 30 Minutes $45
Medicinal Herbal Therapy - Chinese Herbs are one of the magical secrets of oriental medicine.
- They are in fact concentrated foods , a super diet you could say.
- There are 5 main flavours in food, Salty, Sweet, Spicy, Sour & Bitter, Herbs, like foods have the same flavours but in a more intense (concentrated) form.
- Herbs stimulate the physical organs and systems of the body. Being 'whole" medicines, they encourage the body to restore itself to peak potential.
- Herbs are generally prescribed weekly or fortnightly. When remedying a disease the signs and symptoms of a person change, to consolidate an effective 'cure" the herbs must also change.
Chinese Herbal Medicine Consultations: 1 hour $70 - 30 Minutes $45
Herbal medicines are extra (prices are calculated on type and weight)

- ATMA's
90 day transformation plan is specifically designed for this purpose. (see below)

CRISIS WORK.
We are also available for crisis work of an emotional or physical nature. (Crisis implies a sudden trauma.) Phone us (03 6393 7161) and we will see you the same day.
90 DAY TRANSFORMATION PLAN
- 90 days is the magical number in psychological circles for the solidification of new behaviours/habits.
- 90 days is the time it takes for the cellular structure of the body to reformulate.
- 90 days. Chinese Medicine states that it takes a minimum of 90 days to effectively remove a chronic disorder (any condition that one has had for more than 6 weeks) from the body.
ATMA’s 90 DAY TRANSFORMATION PLAN is our commitment to you, to excellence in health care, and to providing a service that brings lasting relief for chronic health complaints.
What can I expect at my first session?
A complete analysis of how you are feeling right now & your previous medical/life history.
A holistic map of the causes and triggers that create your current problem is formulated and a treatment plan outlining your particular needs will be discussed.
ATMA combines a variety of Traditional healing therapies including: Acupuncture, Aura-Soma, Chakra balancing, Chinese Herbal medicine, Chinese Medical diagnosis, Chinese & intuitive massage, Counseling, DNA processing, Energy/Etheric cleansing & programming.
What makes up the 90 DAY TRANSFORMATION PLAN?
12 Weekly sessions of 90 minutes duration. - You heal from chronic disorders basically in layers.
The aim of the overall plan is to relieve the main complaint that you present with. However, you can expect the ‘whole’ of you to benefit. Each part of you is connected. When you are properly balanced you can expect all aspects to function more efficiently.
Each visit you are reassessed and diagnosed based on your current state and what you have experienced during the previous week. A formula of Chinese Herbs are prepared to nourish, strengthen, balance or detoxify the current symptoms that you are presenting.
Chinese Herbs in this plan provide the solid, physical, concentrated nutrition that rebuilds the inside of the body
Diagnosis and preparing Chinese herbs takes 20 to 30 minutes each visit, the rest of the time generally involves Chinese and intuitional massage, with a combination of the modalities previously mentioned. Chinese massage is particularly useful for relieving pain and clearing the outside of the body, Chinese cupping is also used, greatly enhancing the effectiveness of massage, strengthening its overall effect.
The combination of Internal medicine (herbs) with external medicine is well renowned, providing a completeness that single modalities such as herbs or massage (on their own) cannot quite compete. There is however another great asset that ATMA offers. Life management. We explain how you get sick and how to avoid it. We recommend a different look at food and how best to take advantage of this essential to living. We explore emotional and mental patterns that are restricting overall contentment, and offer easy tools to help you shift these patterns. We work with energy, directing with precision and intent to give the whole process added efficacy. We provide guides to obtain the maximum benefit from exercise. We provide time, in which all things physical can manifest.
NOTE: With the exception of Chinese Herbs (which our given each treatment session), it is at the discretion of Dione & Paul which treatment modalities are used at each visit.
Some common questions answered
On my first visit am I obligated to enroll in the TRANSFORMATION PLAN?
NO. The 90 day plan is one approach. If this is not for you, we will tailor a plan to suit your life style, state of health and budget.
How much does the 90 DAY TRANSFORMATION PLAN cost?
- Per session $70
- Herbs - $360
- Aura-Soma bottle $45
For each 90 minute session you pay $70, this includes everything except herbs, and special requirements such as trauma plasters, plum blossom needles, etc. (Acupuncture is completely optional)

| "I went to see Paul and his Chinese Medicine because of a chronic sleeping problem after trying almost everything including such things as hypnotherapy. Not only has it fixed my sleeping problems it has also helped my eczema. I would highly recommend this centre." |
Danny, age 23
"As a health practitioner, despite 25 years of experience in both practise and teaching, I found it difficult to treat myself when I was quite unwell recently, but was discerning about who I would see for help.
So I made an appointment with Paul Chapman in his clinic. I was impressed with his manner: very professional, and compassionate in his wise councel.
His clinic was busy, but he was generous and relaxed about the time spent with me. Paul possesses that rare combination of profound knowledge of the Traditional Chinese herbal medicines and Acupuncture, and the intuition of how to apply these to the individual needs of his patient with absolute confidence.
In all humility he creates a special healing experience in his clinic. I am also amazed at how quickly his herbal formulation gives results, with even the first dose in a chronic condition.
I have absolutely no doubt that Paul's professionalism, genuine compassion and his art of practise will be a blessing to his colleagues, students and patients alike.
As a practioner I have no hesitation in commending him, and personally I gratefully wish him the very best." |
Antoinette, age 50
"Paul Chapman has been treating me in Traditional Chinese Medicine for the last three months.
Paul has been a tremendous support for me during a very personal and emotional crisis. I have felt at ease in his company and have found Paul to be very caring with compassion and empathy. Paul's various means of treatment including Chinese massage, Acupuncture, Cupping, Runes and Numerology were very beneficial to my healing process. He has shared his wisdom with me regarding these aspects and has taught me so much about myself, and my body.
Paul's insight and wisdom have meant so much to me, as he has restored my sense of faith in my future. Paul is a special character with an outgoing professional disposition. He has a knowledgeable, friendly, warm and approachable, caring manner.
I would highly recommend Paul to anyone in need for alternative treatment." |
Larni, age 30
| "I was on a seasaw of anti-depressant and anti-anxiety drugs for years until I began acupuncture to stabalize my dosage levels. It occured to me that maybe I could use acupuncture to get off drugs altogether. I got three treatments a week for five months and I'm now free of two very addictive medicines, both of which were prescribed by psychiatrists. I'm relieved to feel back in control of my life again." |
Stphanie Mills, age 35
| "Since my childhood I'd been dependent on inhailers and anti-asthma medicines. along with acupuncture treatments for six months, I eliminated spicy and cold foods from my diet. Now I can play basketball without needing bronchodilators and I only take medicine occasionally if I get a bad case of hayfever." |
Robbie Johnson, age 33
| "My rash was red and itchy all over both legs. In the night I'd scratch and drive myself mad. I tried regular doctors and homeopathy-I tried everything. After six visits it was pretty much clear. then I tried to quit smoking. It's been a year-and-a half since my last treatment and the rash hasn't come back, and I haven't smoked either" |
Helena Muscal, age 22
| "For three years I had no energy, no stamina. I had been diagnosed as both having the AIDS and Epstein-Barr viruses. With walking I got short of breath and felt pain in my chest. In the beginning, acupuncture made me feel spaced out and tired. After two months I felt more energetic, my digestion improved, and I wasn't short of breath. After eight months of treatment combined with herbal tonics daily, I regained my strength and returned to work and a more normal life-style. It's been six months since my last treatment but I won't hesitate to rely on acupuncture if I start feeling sick again." |
Frank Bell, age 31
| "For months my blood pressure was so high that I was dizzy all the time and couldn't stand up. I was frightened because it was barely under control with medication. Within 48 hours after one of my acupuncture treatments, the pressure dropped so low that my doctor had to take me off medication. It remained normal and I can walk around now without feeling dizzy" |
Esther Zipin, age 88
| "I had been diagnosed as having chronic prostitis and urethritis which antibiotics hadn't helped long-term. After ten acupuncture treatments my difficult urination and painful ejaculations disappeared." |
Emillio Perez, age 51
| "The sniffles, scratchy throat, and headache that I expected would blossom into a full-fledged cold never did. Herbs cleared me right up." |
Jake Talman, age 28
| "I stopped estrogen replacement therapy because of the side effects-bruising and water retension-but I was desparate for help with my irritable mood swings and hot flashes. Acupuncture plus herbs helped me tremendously. Now, three months later, I feel fantastic-much better than I did on estrogen." |
Julia Wisner, age 56
| "Tommy missed a lot of school due to perpetual ear and sinus infections. Changes in his diet along with acupuncture and herbs has made him more resilient than his friends, and his learning disabilities also faded away." |
Tommy Hansen
| "As a result of chemotherapy, I suffered mild heart failure and kidney shut-down, preventing me from qualifying for another series of chemo treatments. Three weeks after I began acupuncture and herbal therapy, I stopped being short of breath and my kidney funtion labs improved dramatically. My oncologists were very impressed." |
Barbara Landin, age 34

Full details Below: Courses are run every season.
Treatment Program for Emotional Well Being
Moving on and Living with Emotional Distress & Depression
Thank you for your enquiry. You have made the first step in being part of this exciting and innovative new program.
A program which gives YOU the skills to actively & creatively empower yourself in your day to day living.
There are many subsidiary benefits that this therapeutic approach can bring into your life—SEE BELOW.
Health, physical, mental & emotional, is not only a state of mind (we may have chronic pain & still feel we live a healthy life) but is dependent on balance & optimum free flowing circulation within the body.
All health dysfunction involves “stagnation” within the Mind/Body at some level.
Each person is unique - Effective treatment requires a personalized approach
We each have a very personalized, physical/emotional/metal/spiritual/environmental & historical set of “symptoms”. This is what makes us unique. Recognition of our gifts & how to creatively express them is a core element in unraveling & understanding emotional/physical distress.
Know one has greater potential than yourselves to recognize & understand your own story.
Self-Mastery is the ultimate goal for all human beings. It’s journey is full of ups’ & downs, joy & woe. When traveled with awareness, this journey brings understanding in all things, liberating the normal, acceptable flow of human Emotions.
Acceptance, especially Self-Acceptance being a key component.
Patent Medicine as a sole Treatment
There is no medication, Chemical or Herbal that can effectively treat emotions (without causing suppression) as a sole treatment. We are constantly changing, so our treatment needs to have strategies for change built into it.
It is essential that the effective treatment of the Emotions, one which aims to assist a person reach self-sufficiency - freedom from dependence on medication - & Inter-dependence in managing their own Mental/emotional health, take a multi-pronged approach.
ATMA’s Multi-Pronged Approach
Herbal Medicine:
Collective Happiness Bark & Mistletoe Powder - CHBM
We have designed a unique Chinese Herbal medicine formula aiding in the release of “Pent Up” emotions,
while at the same time re-balancing the body, with the use of “adaptogens” such as Ginseng, Schizandra, etc.
This formula Strengthens the various physiological processes of the body, supplements insufficient substances, such as energy, blood, fluids, marrow, etc. Invigorates & cleans blood circulation & strengthens the body’s defenses against disease. It is primarily “Tonic” in nature, with a focus on calming. Herbs are included to release pathogenic (disease causing) influences via the skin, urine & bowels. This is an essential requirement, the release of pathogens creates “space” to accept tonification which further engenders healthy formation of new cells.
Some symptoms CHBM can remedy
Emotional Distress
Depression
Pent up Emotions
Excessive brooding
Bad temper
Lowers Cholesterol
Irritability
Anxiety
Numbness
Insomnia
Palpitations
Restlessness
Poor memory
Lethargy
Dizziness
Hot flushes
Headache
Chronic pain
Diarrhea
Night sweats
Poor appetite
Elevated Cholesterol
Cough
Victim mentality
Weak digestion
Feeling Cold
Shortness of breath
No Will power
Regulate blood pressure
No drive/determination
2) The Breath - A Natural Healer:
Physical &/or Emotional trauma interrupts the natural cyclic rhythm of the breath creating a separation between the inhale & the exhale. This manifests a holding of the breath, & a tendency to breath shallowly into the chest with the breath not reaching the lower abdomen.
A Little Separated Breath Theory:
The above type of breathing creates sluggishness & stagnation in the body, disrupting temperature regulation, fluid & blood circulation, digestion & effective elimination.
On an emotional level separated breathing inhibits the integration of “negative” emotional experiences.
The separation of the breath is a defense mechanism preventing the person from re-experiencing the painful event.
A very common reaction, happening countless times during our growing years when we do not get full understanding.
These experiences/memories are stored in the body & block normal energy & blood flow.
Acting as triggers the memories elicit an appropriate emotional response to;
protect from feeling the same pain, & remove the stagnant/sluggish energy which has built up at the blocked areas in the body/mind.
There are limitless emotional responses, to keep things simple we can put them into two types;
Extrovert - Outward moving energy - Anger, shouting, crying, laughing, talking, movement, itching - Yang
Introvert - Inward moving energy - Numbness, detachment, aloofness, tiredness, sulking, eating - Yin
The “child” aspect of ourselves is trying to protect itself, as a child we had limited power, expression or emotional maturity. As an adult we have much more power coupled with the ability to create new experiences & behaviours. The protective pattern laid in at an early age may not now be serving us in establishing healthy relationships.
Laws of attraction & opposites:
In relationships the Laws of attraction & opposites show themselves. If a child grew up in an environment where their was anger, arguments, etc. they separate their breath (all subconscious) to protect their delicate sensitivity from feeling bad about themselves. As they grow, they decide never to be like their “father/mother” and choose not to ever express in an angry way or to get into arguments. This is denial of an aspect of expression/personality.
What do you think might happen?……………………………………
Make a note of what your answer was.
It is very likely that they will attract a partner who is aggressive, dominant, angry & argumentative, (attracting what is suppressed, generating the opposite of the passive nature) while they will easily enter the role of the victim, becoming resentful, withdrawn, sad lonely & likely righteous in their position that they have not got angry & therefore it’s not their fault.
Anytime we react, rather than act, to any external stimuli, it is an indication of suppressed/repressed emotion within ourselves.
In the above example the aim of attraction/opposite will be for the person to rebalance their early life decision around anger/arguments, so eventually they can stand up & not be the victim, to speak up, through argument if necessary and to develop new behaviours that move beyond the dis-empowered child into a free flowing empowered adult. Connected breathing is one approach that can assist in this process.
Connecting & Tracking Emotional , Mental and Physical responses
The total holistic approach to wellness connects all aspects of being, each aspect can and is used to help identify the origin of the pattern/symptom/unpleasant feeling, etc, integrate it, remove it and replace it with a more empowering alternative.
Specific tools and guidelines are given how to do this with ever increasing rapidity on a day to day experience by experience basis.
Breathing Exercises:
Simple, daily exercises to integrate blocked memories/traumatic experiences, to develop relaxation & concentration, acceptance & moving into “bliss consciousness” are taught as part of this program.
3) Chinese Energy Exercise - Qi gong:
Breathing is classified as internal exercise, to bring harmony & balance there must also be external exercise, that is where Qi gong comes in. A set of 12 exercises to regulate & nourish the nervous system is part of this program. Some people may require additional exercises, these will be discussed in the personal evaluation sessions. Qi gong moves energy through channels called “meridians”. Meridians are directly connected to the main organs of the body, Heart, Lung, Spleen, Liver ,Kidney, Stomach, Large & Small Intestines, Bladder & Gall bladder, they also indirectly, through the blood & fluid circulation, the digestion, respiratory, nervous & endocrine system connect to every living cell. Therefore activation of energy through the meridians benefits the health of the entire person.
4) Daily evaluation Charts:
To aid you in self-observation & an important aspect of our research, a daily “tick” chart to record your day by day physical & emotional patterns. The charts will be posted back to us every Friday for evaluation & will be used to “fine tune” your
overall program. Adjustments if necessary will be discussed in the personal evaluation sessions.
5) Food Therapy:
Diet is our main way of gaining/replenishing energy. We will pass on to you some of the timeless clues to healthy eating that the Chinese have discovered over centuries of careful observation & practice.
6) How to identify emotional states:
As stated on page 1, Self-Mastery is the aim. In order to be your own Master you need to be able to understand what is going on for yourself both physically & emotionally. Emotions such as apathy, guilt, anger, peace, etc. each have distinctive patterns of expression. If we can identify what emotional state we are in then it is simple to give instruction to our subconscious mind to let go of the emotion & move into a “higher” emotional state, moving us more towards courage, acceptance & joy.
7) Well how would it be 2 have everything you can think of? Learning program: 5 sessions
A comprehensive 24 hour learning program covering the essential ingredients of emotional & mental Self Mastery.
Topics covered include; breath work, beliefs & values, nature of human beings, how we begin, conscious & subconscious, what’s in your life and why, laws of opposites & attraction, what creates stress, how to find the wonder of exactly where you are, and discover your wosdom etc.
8) Personal Evaluation sessions:
Session 1 is the beginning of your program where you pick up your CHBM formula for one month. In this session we do a complete Chinese medical diagnosis & can provide specific instruction as regards to present dominant emotional patterns & how to work with them + specific dietary &exercise advice.
Session 2 is at the beginning of month 2 where you pick up more herbs and we fine tune your program where needed.
Session 3 is at the beginning of month three & as above.
9) : Qi gong exercise sessions:
2 classes to give you all you need to commence this simple yet highly effective set of energy exercises. These exercises will re-align posture and get everything flowing smoothly.
10) All information provided in a neat, easy to understand step by step process:

MEDICINE
WHY CHINESE MEDICINE AS A BASE?
Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a complete comprehensive system of health.
Incorporating
treatment applications through Massage, Acupuncture, Herbal medicine, Food & Exercise therapy.
Understanding of the causes of illness, both internally via lifestyle, food or emotions & externally through the constant changing patterns of nature.
TCM formulates a highly effective medicine to treat & remedy illness, coupled with deep insight into how one is to live in wellness.
The aim for Longevity shaped TCMs development; attributes such as;
Balance, attained through the prevention of illness,
maintenance of vitality, through diet, exercise, & an interesting psychological approach to life, based on Daoism & acceptance of change
living in harmony with nature &
development & care of ones foundation fostered a medicine for enhancing life.
With Balance at its core, imbalances that are not detectable by modern methods of diagnosis, such as blood tests, scans etc can be easily recognized & treated, preventing the development of more serious illnesses later in life.
TCM connects the body as a whole integral system, the connection between body & mind, emotions & Spirit are seamless except for the symptoms that they manifest
The philosophical basis of TCM lies at the root of Feng Shui, Astrology, Martial Arts, Divination, Business & Health. It benefits all areas.
METAPHYSICAL COUNSELLING & ESOTERIC SCIENCE (MCES)
The energetic system of the body, its alignment with the principles of universal creation & mankind’s drive to know oneself form the basis of MCES study in this course.
We can only effectively help to clear/heal in others what is clear in ourselves.
MCES helps one to look deep inside. To apply techniques & knowledge to “awaken what lies latent”; “psychic powers” or“ skeletons in the closet”. One is a natural by product of the harmonising of a persons external (conscious) self with their internal (sub-conscious) self. The other is the shadow, or aspects of self that are denied, repressed, unacceptable & hidden from view. When these latent parts are unacknowledged they govern all behaviours of a perverted, insidious, deceptive & conflicting nature. They create separation & discord, within ones body & without in ones relationships with all people & things.
MOVEMENT
Medical Qigong is the movement aspect of this course
Within movement all things exist. It is the one norm & constant.
Movement in this course reveals itself in several ways; for example:
The use of posture to facilitate ease & effectiveness of massage techniques
The “sensing” of the type of energy that arrives at the point of contact with a client.
The diminishing of force with softness which returns force
Connection with the breath when drumming
Heat in your fingers as you direct the qi
The joy of greeting the Sun
Traversing your inner environment
Movement is an approach to awareness. Awareness is a necessity.
Movement connects body with mind, whether in meditation, a combat situation, performing a massage treatment, or guiding a person through a visualisation, the body, mind connection allows for integration & is a major key in developing intuitive insight.

Eight Extraordinary Meridian Qigong Study/practice group
Back To Top...
Qigong
Would you like to participate in a new study group to practice Qigong?
It's completely free, (unless we have to hire a venue, then the costs will be shared) requiring simply
your time.
Qigong can be practiced for health maintenance purposes, as a therapeutic intervention, as a medical profession, a spiritual path and/or component of Chinese Martial Arts.
The qi in qigong means breath or air in Chinese, and, by extension, life force, dynamic energy or even cosmic breath. Gong means work applied to a discipline or the resultant level of skill, so qigong is thus breath work or energy work.
I have recently received from James MacRitchie, a teacher with 25 years of experience in Qigong and Acupuncture, a 9 month training program of Eight Extraordinary meridian qigong. The '8 Extra's' in Chinese Medicine encompass the energetic matrix of the human body.
Below is the link to the Qigong site which contains the download for the Free 9 month Qigong course. http://www.globalqiproject.com
Next Step - Suggested Qigong Study Group Guide
• Download the above course: Read the introduction - Decide if Qigong interests you.
• If it does let me know, and start to practice the first exercise "smile at yourself".
• There are 12 individual exercises in the presented course. My feeling is to devote a year to practice together,
• Practicing one exercise per month, allowing plenty of time to integrate each exercise
Individual & group work
• At home: Daily practice of the exercise.
• Gathering as a group, I would prefer weekly to help keep momentum, alternatively you may prefer fortnightly or monthly. Group work to explore the theory of the exercise and to practice together
Suggested pre-2009 meeting on Thursday December 18th 2008 to meet each other & discuss in person any questions or suggestions on how best to apply the learning of Qigong to provide maximum benefit to each individual and the group as a whole.
NOTE: If you are receiving this email a long distance from Hadspen, near Launceston Tasmania and it still interests you I encourage you to form your own study group. There could be a possibility in the future where annually we all congregate to share the benefits of Qigong.
To share my motivation.
My aim is to establish a daily exercise practice that strengthens my foundation, improves my health, physically, mentally & emotionally, develops my 'energy sensitivity' and enhances the free flow of this energy through my channels to facilitate the sharing of this energy with others.
My aim of being involved in group practice is to emulate the attributes of unity & sharing.
That’s it; the rest is up to you
If you’re interested or want any more info, let me know
Have a wonder-filled day
Paul
Medicine, Meditation & Movement when competently combined manifest a clarity of healing that is highly effective and safe for the client & the practitioner. the result of becoming a healer is of course self-healing.
