I popped in at the weekend to get these little beauties to brighten up my window sill - I’m delighted with them 🪴 so nice to look at on this dreary day! The service great - helped me choose some low maintence plants (that I hopefully won’t kill…I don’t have a great track record!)

I often get asked about acupressure mats that people see on TikTok/youtube/insta - if they ‘work’, what do they do, is it worth buying one…here’s the answer to all those questions and more! Two acupuncture colleagues, Karen Charlesworth and give the low down here. Definitely worth a listen!

I’ve been treating people with ptsd and people who have experienced trauma for many years. It can be so helpful to calm the nervous system and stop the constant fight/flight respinse and panic that comes.

This randomized clinical trial assesses the effectiveness of verum vs sham acupuncture in reducing severity of symptoms in combat-related posttraumatic stress disorder.

I had a wonderful experience connecting with fellow acupuncturists at the British Acupuncture Council conference. I had the privilege to offer a session (using my Dance Movement Psychotherapy skills) on self-reflection and the reflective process! I love being in that space with people and blown away by the deep experiences that people had 🙏🏻💗🙏🏻

Who knew there was an acupuncture point to stop you insulting people! 😂 It really is a multifaceted, mind/body/spirit treatment! Give me a call if you’ve been insulting people and want to stop 😀👍🏼 seriously though if you have been experiencing stress, anger and frustration and it is affecting your relationships, acupuncture may help.
