🤍Baby Loss Awareness Week | October 9–15🤍

This week is a time dedicated to remember the babies who died during pregnancy, at birth, or in infancy and to open gentle conversations around a grief that is often left unspoken.

We know that healing from loss involves more than time. We hold space and listen, supporting men and women who have experienced this heartbreak.

On 15th Oct at 7pm we join the wave of light that will glow in many homes to remember & connect with that love.

During Back Care Awareness Week, we’re shining a light on how acupuncture and cupping can help ease persistent pain, release muscle tension, and restore balance naturally.

Acupuncture and cupping works by:

✔️ Stimulating the body’s natural healing response
✔️ Improving circulation to strained or injured areas
✔️ Reducing inflammation and calming the nervous system

If back pain has been holding you back, this week is the perfect time to take action for your body and wellbeing.

We work with all types of chronic pain, including migraines, arthritis, and joint stiffness. It can affect every part of life both physically and emotionally.

No two people experience pain the same way, that’s why every acupuncture treatment plan is tailored to you and your needs.

📅 Book your your appointment today and discover how acupuncture can help you move freely again.

✨3 Powerful Acupressure Points for Mind-Body Balance ✨

Tap into the power of acupressure as we transition though late summer.

This is the season of Earth and it is all about grounding, digesting (both food and life experiences), and finding stability after the movement of summer energies. It’s also a time to tend to the body’s centre, our Earth, so that we move into autumn feeling nourished and steady.

Yintang – “The Third Eye”

Stomach 36 (ST36) (Zusanli) – “Leg Three Miles”

Heart 7 (HT7) (Shenmen) – “Spirit Gate”

You can use gentle pressure and a few deep breaths on each point or for more in depth advice and use of essential oils please see our website or contact us.

IVF can be one of the most emotionally and physically intense journeys you’ll ever walk.

Acupuncture treatments alongside traditional chinese medicine can be effective in assisting both male and female fertility, by enabling the body to regain its natural balance.

A growing body of evidence also supports the effectiveness of acupuncture in increasing the chances of successful IVF treatment. The British Acupuncture Council has a good fact sheet on their website covering Infertility IVF - link in stories.
