One of our favourite reminders — and founder Rebecca Avern’s go-to words of wisdom to share with children 💛

“The things that make me different, are the things that make me me.” – Piglet

At The Little Acupuncture Room, we see every child as beautifully unique. Whether they’re shy, sensitive, bold, creative, anxious or full of beans — we meet them just as they are, and honour what makes them them.

Because difference isn’t something to fix — it’s something to cherish. 🌈

This lovely moment was captured after a recent treatment — a reminder of why we do what we do.
Families come to us seeking relief, comfort, and support for their children and often leave feeling just a little lighter.

As a not-for-profit clinic, we rely on your donations to keep our doors open. Every contribution helps us continue to offer low-cost acupuncture to babies, children, and teenagers — so no child misses out on the care they need.

Your support means:
🧡 More smiling families
🧡 More calm children heading into the school day
🧡 More accessible healthcare for all

If you’re in a position to give we would be so grateful.

We’re thrilled to announce that The Little Acupuncture Room has switched over to a new and improved booking system — making it easier than ever to manage your appointments.

Has your child already had a treatment with us? Then you’ve already got an account! You should have received an email from JaneApp in December with a personal link to set up your username and password.

🙏 Please use that link to avoid creating duplicate profiles.

Let Winter do What Winter Does Best!

As we settle into the new year, January invites us to slow down and soften our pace — just like nature does.

🧸 Make room for play without an agenda
🛏 Prioritise early bedtimes and gentle mornings
🐢 Allow your child time to “warm up” each day

Just like seeds resting underground, our children need time to gather energy and grow — in their own time, in their own way. There’s no need to rush.

Happy New Year from all of us at The Little Acupuncture Room!

As the world speeds up again — new routines, new intentions, new demands — we want to offer you something quieter.

In Chinese medicine, winter is the most yin time of the year: a season for hibernation, restoration, and deep replenishment. It’s not the time to surge forward, but to gather strength for the coming spring.

This applies to children just as much as adults. If your child seems slower, more tired, more inward — they’re likely doing exactly what they need to.

Let’s all go gently into 2026 🧡

Happy Holidays from all of us at The Little Acupuncture Room!

As the year draws to a close, we’re feeling incredibly grateful — for our community, for your trust, and for all we’ve achieved together this year:

🧡 Secured funding to keep TLAR running for at least another 6 months
👂 Introduced auricular acupuncture for parents & carers — moments of calm just for you
👩‍⚕️ Welcomed two brilliant team members — Berenice and Ania
🖥️ Laid the groundwork for a brand new booking system launching in January

Thank you for being part of our journey — we couldn’t do it without you!

We hope the winter break brings rest, joy, and connection with the people who matter most.

Here’s to slowing down and celebrating the small and big wins. See you in 2026! 💫

In Chinese medicine, winter is the season of the Kidneys — a time to quietly build energy and nourish the deeper reserves that support growth and vitality.

Some of the best kidney-supportive ingredients are also wonderful for family meals:
🫘 Black beans
🌾 Rice
🧅 Leeks
🌰 Walnuts
🎃 Pumpkin seeds
🍓 Goji berries
🍲 Mineral-rich broths (with a pinch of sea salt)

You might like to cook a simple soup, stew or warm grain bowl with your child — not just for the health benefits, but for the calm connection that comes with sharing a task in a quiet kitchen.

We're here for you 🧡

🎄 Holiday Closure Reminder 🎄
We're closing for a well-deserved rest from 16th December and will reopen on 6th January.

Just like the children we care for, our team needs time to pause, recharge and reflect. Rest is not a luxury — it’s an essential part of staying well, growing strong and showing up fully.

We believe in practising what we share with families every day: that periods of stillness allow the body to reset, the nervous system to soften, and energy to gently rebuild. Winter is the season for slowing down — and we’re leaning into it wholeheartedly.

If your child might benefit from a session before we close, there's still chance to get seen next week. Otherwise, we'll see you in the new year!

You can book your child in to see the team easily and online. Simply head to our online booking page: https://yourclinic.care/practice/the-little-acupuncture-room/?view=true

We're so grateful for the kind words from parents – it literally makes our hearts sing!

At The Little Acupuncture Room, we’re here to support your child’s wellbeing — whether it’s anxiety, sleep, or simply finding their calm in a busy world.

At The Little Acupuncture Room, we don’t just treat symptoms — we support the whole child.

This beautiful quote from our founder, Rebecca Avern, sums up why Chinese medicine is such a powerful system for paediatrics. It allows us to see each child as a whole person, not just a diagnosis.

Whether it's sleep, anxiety, digestion or emotional wellbeing, our care is always centred around your child — their story, their rhythm, and their unique needs.

At The Little Acupuncture Room, our mission is simple: to make acupuncture truly accessible to babies, children and teenagers — whatever their family’s financial situation.

💛 We operate on a sliding scale so cost is never a barrier to care.
👩‍⚕️ Children are supported by our team of seven experienced practitioners, ensuring seamless and collaborative treatment.
🛏️ Most sessions take place in a multi-bed space, which children often find reassuring and calming.
📊 We also measure outcomes to track progress and continually improve care.

We believe every child deserves support. If you’re a SENCO or a parent who thinks your child may be eligible for school-referral treatment, please get in touch.

Parents & caregivers, we've got something for you too!

While your child has their treatment, you’re invited to relax and recharge. We're now offering auricular (ear) acupuncture – a gentle, calming treatment known to help with stress, sleep, anxiety & emotional balance.

Deep relaxation in under 20 minutes, no need to undress, just £10.

Enjoy a little care and calm of your own, ask us about adding it to your visit.

Take a breath, We’ve got you 🧡
