Your body isn't broken — it's communicating. I help you listen to it, and heal it, using centuries-old Chinese Medicine paired with a deep understanding of the emotional patterns that keep symptoms coming back.

Hi, I'm
Cassandra Tan,
a TCM Physician with a focus on Emotional & Holistic wellness
I help people find lasting relief from chronic, frustrating health issues—from eczema and gut problems to poor sleep, stress, and children’s wellness—by understanding the whole person and addressing what’s really driving their symptoms.
This approach is deeply rooted in my own health journey. During my school years, I struggled with eczema and panic attacks, particularly during periods of intense stress from exam results and constant competition with my peers. From secondary school all the way through university, I began to notice how strongly my emotional state could affect my physical body.
In my late twenties, as I approached 30 and found myself still single while many of my peers were settling down, that anxiety resurfaced — this time showing up as hives, digestive issues, and insomnia. What became increasingly clear to me was that these symptoms were not simply isolated physical problems. My emotions and stress were manifesting physically, and my body was responding to what I was experiencing internally.
Through TCM, I began to understand my symptoms from a deeper perspective — not just treating the eczema, hives, gut issues, or insomnia individually, but looking at how emotional stress could affect the body's internal balance and contribute to recurring symptoms.
As I addressed both the physical imbalances and the emotional factors behind them, my body gradually began to settle. My symptoms faded, my sleep improved, and I felt more grounded and at ease within myself.
That experience shaped the way I practise TCM today.
I don't just look at what's showing up on your skin, in your gut, or in your sleep. I look at why it's showing up — the stress, the imbalance, the pattern your body has been stuck in — and treat both together.

Illness rarely shows up for just one reason. A flare-up, a sleepless night, a stubborn gut issue — these are often the body's way of signaling a deeper imbalance, physical and emotional.
My Approach: Root-Cause Healing
Emotion (Yin)
Stress, suppressed feelings, and nervous system patterns that quietly drive physical symptoms — identified and worked with as part of your treatment plan, not separate from it.
Body (Yang)
Organ Qi, digestion, inflammation, hormones, and physical imbalance — addressed through herbal medicine, acupuncture, and lifestyle guidance.
I don't treat these as two different services. It's one integrated approach to figuring out why your body is doing what it's doing, and helping it come back into balance.
What I Help With
Eczema & Skin Flare-Ups
Gut Health
Stress & Nervous System Balance
Chronic eczema, hives, and rashes are often tied to internal heat, dampness, and stress.
I work on calming flare-ups naturally while addressing the underlying triggers so results last longer than a cream can offer.
Bloating, irregular bowel movement, and gut discomfort are frequently linked to stress and organ imbalance.
I help restore healthy digestion from the inside out.
When stress becomes chronic, the body holds onto it — showing up as tension, flare-ups, fatigue, or a racing mind.
I help regulate the nervous system so your body can actually rest and repair.
Sleep
Poor sleep is both a symptom and a cause of imbalance.
I look at what's actually disrupting your sleep — physically and emotionally — and support your body back into a natural rhythm.
Pregnancy Support
Gentle, safe TCM support through the different stages of pregnancy and postpartum recovery, nurturing both mother and baby through natural balance.
Children's Wellness
Supporting kids with gentle, natural TCM care for common childhood issues like cough & flu, eczema, digestion, sleep, and immunity — with an approach that's mindful of little bodies.

As someone that used to struggle from chronic eczema and spend quite alot on treatment and medication, I was pleasantly surprised that my body responded well to the treatment and had a remarkable improvement in just 2 weeks, through accupuncture and medication. 100% recommend and would encourage anyone to give it a try
Ice Tea
I’ve been battling eczema for two years and relied heavily on steroid oil up until November 2024. That’s when I decided to consult Dr. Cassandra Tan. After six months of consistent treatment, medication, and dietary guidance, I’m finally seeing a breakthrough — no more flares, no more weeping sores. Dr. Cassandra has provided invaluable advice and practical methods that have truly supported me on this healing journey.
