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;

Chinese Medicinal Herbal TherapyBack To Top...
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)
MASSAGEBack To Top...
INTUITIVE MASSAGE

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 Back To Top...
- 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

| "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." |
Stephanie Mills, age 35

2. Living Beyond Depression (LBD)
Back To Top...
A natural approach in the treatment of depression & anxiety.
LIVING BEYOND DEPRESSION
If you have been characterised or diagnosed with such conditions as;
• Depression,
• Anxiety,
• Post Natal Depression,
• Mood Swings,
• Passive/Aggressive behaviour (Victim/Perpetrator),
• Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (P.T.S.D.),
• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (O.C.D),
• Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.),
• Addictions, etc.
LBD will assist you to obtain the necessary skills to live an active & creative life.
LBD is suitable for people who feel that there is another way, another way to feel, to express, a way that is beyond depression, beyond suppression, beyond medication. A way that empowers self.
In Chinese/Energetic Medicine all illness/imbalance, whether it be physical or emotional is simply evidence of a blockage, or stagnation within the bodies circulatory systems; the breath, fluid and blood.
Everything can be improved simply by identifying what is blocked/stagnant, and then applying the most appropriate response to improve circulation.
An example:
In Depressive states there may be an over all feeling of ‘what’s the point?’
Simply identifying what actually ‘is the point’ elicits an immediate emotional (feeling) and mental (belief) response. Note: We have an emotional and mental response to all situations; it is how we perceive what is happening, and how we decide what to do.
To further illustrate this example: The initial feeling that showed its self when the ‘point’ was realised was ANGER; the belief was ‘ANGER CAUSES PAIN’.
Note: These emotional and mental responses happen mostly beneath our conscious radar, in other words we are not aware of them, they happen at lightning speed, we simply see the results.
In the above case a person usually ‘chooses’ (sub-consciously) to suppress the anger.
Anger is a dynamic emotion, and like all things, it cannot be removed, it can only transform, so anger may transform emotionally into laughter, worry, resentment, criticism, cruelty, withdrawal, weeping, moaning, mania, etc, and physically into tics and tremors, itching, yawning, sighing, hot and cold fluctuations, rigidity, headaches, nightmares, menstrual pain, CVA, arthritis and even breast cancer.
Suppression requires effort. Anything that requires effort creates stagnation. Learning to channel anger into creative pursuits and adopt new beliefs such as ‘Anger creates movement’ could be included in an overall strategy in adopting expression to improve circulation, which is in direct contrast to suppression which will retard circulation.
Emotional and physical symptoms are the unique signposts to the origins of blockages. They provide all the necessary data to develop strategies to restore balanced flow.
LBD will help to break the cycle of dependence on medication and “External” support mechanisms, including;
• Anti-depressants, tranquilizers, sedatives, pain relievers
• repeated counselling, and/or moving from ‘friend to friend’ in a never ending cycle of seeking support via the ‘listening ear’. You will learn how and why to trust yourself and the counsel of those closest to you.
• Behavioral techniques which have been adopted to help you “cope”, yet also help to perpetuate the condition. NOTE: These behaviours frequently feel unpleasant. These could be differentiated as: Extrovert - Outward moving energy - Anger, shouting, crying, laughing, talking, movement, itching, etc.
Introvert - Inward moving energy - Numbness, detachment, aloofness, tiredness, sulking, eating, etc. You will learn how to move ‘in and out’ of a variety of emotional/mental states. No emotion is ‘bad’, however emotions that are over or under used create blockages.
• Addictions such as; work, food, sex, alcohol, drugs, exercise, etc.
No one has greater potential than you to recognize & understand your own story. Acceptance, especially Self-Acceptance is a key component and goal.
LBD – A multi-pronged approach
Patent Medicine as a sole Treatment
There is no medication, Chemical or Herbal that can effectively treat emotions.
Medications that appear to work when used as a sole treatment, work through suppression .
We are constantly changing, so effective management needs to have strategies for change built into it.
It is essential that the effective management of emotional well being, 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.
What is LBD’s multi-pronged approach?
1. Knowledge/understanding/skills
2. Breath Work
3. Exercise
4. Nutrition
5. Professional Evaluation
6. Personal Evaluation
7. User Friendly
1) Knowledge/understanding/skills - 6 Sessions:
A comprehensive 24 hour learning program; covering the essential ingredients of emotional & mental Self management.
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 breathe shallowly into the chest with the breath not reaching the lower abdomen. This type of breathing creates sluggishness & stagnation in the body, disrupting temperature regulation, fluid & blood circulation, digestion & effective elimination.
Learning to breath effectively supports good emotional and physical health, and increases longevity.
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 professional evaluation sessions.
Qi gong meaning “energy work”, helps us identify our own ‘inner energy’. This energy can be directed in specific ways to strengthen the whole body, it can be used to remove illness and enhance immunity, to develop power in martial arts, to bring deep relaxation, and for some it can become a ‘spiritual practice’ or meditation.
Moving energy through channels called “meridians”, connecting to the main organs of the body, Heart, Lung, Spleen, Liver , & Kidneys, directly effects the blood and fluid circulation, the digestion, respiratory, nervous and endocrine system, ultimately connecting to every living cell.
Activation of energy through the meridians benefits the totality of our health.
4) Nutrition:
A) Identifying what, when, how and why we eat. 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.
These subjects are explored in the learning program and during professional and personal evaluation sessions.
B) Herbal Medicine: Herbs are whole, concentrated foods. Herbs are very effective in assisting the emotional and physical aspects to comfortably adapt to change. LBD incorporates the 90 day nutritional herb supplement CHBM.
Collective Happiness Bark & Mistletoe Powder – (CHBM) is a specifically designed Chinese Herbal medicine formula which helps release “Pent Up” emotions, re-balances the body, 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.
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

5) Professional Evaluation sessions X’s 3:

Here you are provided with specific instruction as regards to present dominant emotional patterns & how to work with them + specific dietary & exercise advice. Additional herbal prescriptions may be advised.
Sessions 2 & 3 are carried out during the program to provide a personalisation of the program. Changes are implemented as required.
6) Daily evaluation Charts:
To aid you in self-observation an evaluation chart to record your day by day physical & emotional patterns is filled out. The charts will be posted/emailed back to ATMA every Friday for evaluation & will be used to “fine tune” your
overall program. Any proposed adjustments (if necessary) will be discussed in the professional evaluation sessions.
7) All information is provided in a neat, easy to understand step by step process:
All the above information is neatly contained in an easy to understand format. Notes are provided at each seminar + exercises to complete which you can enhance upon at home.
Just be present, relax and absorb all you need, in this way, bit by bit, you can attain all your chosen goals.
LBD works. All you need is a little time, time to learn a new approach and time to appreciate all you have been.
Below is what a couple of experienced professional women had to say. They are included here because of the time that both of these women had spent in coming to understand themselves, in unraveling the mystery of who they were/are before embarking on this course. They are included to illustrate that each moment of life is an opportunity to learn and gain insight, to illustrate that openness and a willingness to participate is fundamental in the pursuit of personal truth and dignity.
Natalie: NLP practitioner:
Hello Dione, Paul,
I have noticed personal growth since I started the course. I am able to use
the "string" to change shallow breathing in anxious circumstances which
immediately changes my breathing as well as posture as well as thinking
ability to more "outside of the circumstance" and less "emotional internal"
thinking which is tainted and takes away from positive action.
I have related my mother's living in the war experience to my daughter's
breakdown (to me it was living in a war zone for 4 years on a daily basis)
and my 4 near death experiences to my mother's near death experiences - her
mother made her a shroud 3 times and the doctors told her that her cancer
was terminal, that makes 4. I can relate my 3 marriages to my mother's 3
marriages (2 died and one was a greedy ..............). Her 3rd child was
abandoned, my first child was abandoned.
Thank you. Keep up the good work.
Jane: Kinesiologist:
Good Morning Paul & Dione,
I did enjoy & benefit from the other night, just embarrassed by the sneezing and nose blowing!
Now, I am having to admit that from the beginning of this month until now, my reports on my daily health, and my Meditation analysis, has been highly neglected. Is there any chance that I may do this in the coming month instead, and I will definitely keep my records. I have taken my herbs regularly!
It has been interesting! Now this isn't trying to give an "excuse", it is just how it seems to have been working. The awareness that your program is actually awakening & shifting awareness has
taken about a month to settle in, so maybe I have just been sabotaging myself; as I am normally right into doing my home-work!
Maybe my barriers are feeling safe to come down, and MAKING/ALLOWING myself to
become aware of how I am actually feeling and thinking are being brought to the surface.
I knew I needed something to shift me out of the rut, or off my plateau,...... which is why I joined your program......to help blast me out of it!

7. Metaphysics:
METAPHYSICAL COUNSELLING PROGRAM
Back To Top...
METAPHYSICAL COUNSELLING (MC)
The energetic system of the body, its alignment with the principles of universal creation & mankind’s drive to know oneself form the basis of MC study in this course.
We can only effectively help to clear/heal in others what is clear in ourselves.
MC 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.
There are 7 “official” lessons. Each lesson takes approximately 3 to 4 months to integrate.
3 lessons are offered each year.
Completion of Lesson 1 is a pre-requisite for enrolment in this school.
Lessons are sequential if enrolling for the two year course; enrolment into any lesson requires completion of the preceding lesson.
NOTE: A maximum of 3 Lessons can be studied without enrolling for the energetic medicine practitioner course.

MOVEMENT
Back To Top...
Within movement all things manifest. 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.
