Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Acupuncture works with the body’s natural energy, or Qi, to restore balance and support overall well-being. By stimulating specific points along the body’s meridians with fine needles, acupuncture helps release tension, improve circulation, and strengthen the body’s natural ability to heal. It addresses both physical and emotional patterns, offering a holistic approach that promotes relief from symptoms, stress reduction, and long-term health, supporting a deeper sense of vitality and harmony.
Alchemical Acupuncture
Inner alchemy, or Neidan, is a Taoist practice that transforms negative emotions and physical limitations into longevity. Alchemical acupuncture is a Classical Chinese Medicine practice that goes beyond physical symptoms to cultivate transformation at the deepest levels of body, mind, and spirit. This deeply spiritual approach supports the transformation of unresolved trauma and psycho-emotional blocks. Old patterns are disrupted creating a renewed sense of balance, vitality, and resilience, encouraging the emergence of a more aligned, authentic, and empowered way of being.
Paediatric Acupuncture
Paediatric acupuncture is a gentle, holistic approach to supporting children’s health and well-being. Using specially adapted, child-friendly techniques, paediatric acupuncture can help relieve common childhood ailments, support growth and development, and strengthen the body’s natural resilience. The approach focuses on nurturing balance and vitality, promoting long-term health in a safe and supportive way.
Cosmetic Acupuncture
Cosmetic acupuncture uses fine acupuncture needles to stimulate collagen production and improve circulation, helping to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, puffiness, and sagging. By supporting the body’s natural energy and balance, it promotes healthier, more radiant skin while addressing the underlying causes of aging for a holistic, natural approach to looking and feeling youthful.

What to Expect
-
During initial consultations we take time to discuss your health, both past and present to get a thorough medical history.
Physical examinations may be necessary for some conditions and we may also take your pulses and look at your tongue. This allows me to make a diagnosis from a Traditional Chinese Medicinal perspective and will inform the treatment plan and where I place the needles.
-
During most treatments, you are given time to relax with the needles inserted, but occasionally the acupuncture needles may be inserted for just a second or two before they are removed.
The number of needles used can vary greatly depending on the technique being employed, but generally between 5-15 needles are inserted.
The needles are so fine that most people don’t feel them being inserted & many people enjoy a deep feeling of relaxation. In fact its not uncommon for people to enjoy an acu-nap.
-
The effects of acupuncture are cumulative, as such a course of 6 to 8 weekly treatments is advised, reducing in frequency as your body responds.
Fertility treatments differ slightly as it can take 3 full cycles before we start to see change. Male fertility patients require weekly treatments for 2 months as a full sperm regeneration cycle (spermatogenesis) takes about 64 days.
