🚩 Whilst we are approaching healthcare holistically by practicing Chinese medicine, we are trained to recognise red flags of conventional disease, making referrals where necessary. It is paramount that anything that requires the input of another health professional is not overlooked.

💊 We also understand the mechanisms of common medications. So when we ask what drugs you are taking, we are getting an idea of what they signal diagnostically, how they interact with the body and each other, allowing us to treat safely, responsibly, and effectively.

🧑‍⚕️ Your full clinical picture matters, and informed care is the foundation of trustworthy healthcare.

‘At winter’s gate, the stars are brittle.
The sun is a sometimes friend.
And the world has tucked her children in, with a kiss on their heads, till Spring’ ❄️C Rylant.

Towards the end of the year, there is naturally talk in clinic of Christmas plans and joys as well as worries and responsibilities.

I’m thinking of all my patients and whatever plans you shared with me, I hope you manage some peace and cosiness 🕯️ And I’ll be here on the other side for whatever you need in January- here’s to your 2026! 🌱

Pre Christmas top up I 30 mins of what you need | £25

If you’re rushing into town on 23rd Dec for last minute Christmas jobs, why not pop in for half an hour to fill your cup before the big day?

At the deepest part of the Winter, most of us are asking of ourselves what we would never ask of nature- to avoid pausing, hibernating, conserving and reflecting. Those spring bulbs are currently waiting, building potential, under a winter blanket in the ground, so that when the time comes they have everything they need to meet spring with vigour and vitality.

Do you need to do this for yourself?

This time of year brings joy but also a lot of challenges for many.
If you need a boost to help get through the festive period, I’ll be here to offer support with stress and fatigue, immunity, emotional upheaval (those family gatherings!), sadness, grief or simply adjusting to the season as we get past the winter solstice.

Drop me a message to book a top up appointment to melt into the couch and let go of everything, just in time for Santa 🎄

Rather than a state of ill health, pregnancy is an incredible condition of change and growth. But the strain on the mind and body is great, and can be uncomfortable and overwhelming.
Moreover, tools we might normally reach for such as medications, hobbies or foods may not be advised at this time which can make it harder to cope with.

Traditional acupuncture is a safe, effective, gentle way to support the natural process of pregnancy.
Women come for treatment for many reasons including support with common symptoms like nausea, aches and pains and anxiety.
It can also be successful in encouraging a breech baby to turn at the right gestation, and often women are referred by their midwife.

Acupuncture can help women feel physically and mentally prepared for the onset of labour, and beyond the due date can be used to gently encourage contractions and help the body transition into active labour.

Beyond pregnancy, women can find support with healing, hormone balance, fatigue, mood changes, and lactation difficulties.
