ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is one of the oldest forms of traditional medicinal treatment. It is steeped in knowledge of the human body that has been acquired over millennia!  

The healing system of Acupuncture is based on the concept of meridians. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, meridians are channels that go through the whole body, they are the pathways that carry our life energy, known as Qi. In Acupuncture, we believe that it is blocks in the energy channels that cause our body to go out of sync resulting in imbalance in different parts of the body.

As an acupuncturist, I am following in the path of practitioners who have trained in and refined techniques for thousands of years. A holistic approach is integral to my clinic. I support the whole person, not isolated symptoms.

I hold a Diploma in Acupuncture and a Diploma in Naturopathy from the renowned College of Naturopathic Medicine in London and a post-graduate qualification in fertility, obstetrics and pregnancy from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine in Reading.

Since qualifying, I have undertaken extensive postgraduate training in Chinese medicine including fertility, women’s health and menopause, sports injuries and pain management, pediatric shonishin acupuncture and auricular (ear) acupuncture.
