Acupuncture is very old 🤓https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202506/1337002.shtml
It has lasted the test of time because it works.
And because it is always evolving in so many ways- needles have obviously improved for starters - though these are pretty impressive for their time!

Techniques are also refined and improved with practice and knowledge. NeoClassical Acupuncture is part of this evolution of holistic acupuncture practice, alongside other styles like auricular, scalp, Korean, Japanese and Tung and Tan Acupuncture. (Dry Needling is a separate category we won't go into right now!)

I love that as practitioners we're always learning, and always aiming for the best, most effective and efficient treatments for our patients, to let their bodies heal sustainably.

PTSD? Help your body and mind recover, naturally.
Post-traumatic stress and c-PTSD can leave you feeling stuck, anxious, or on edge. Caught in a feedback loop where your body doesn’t feel like it can ever escape.

Acupuncture helps calm your body’s fight-or-flight response, reduce physical symptoms like tension or insomnia, and restore your sense of safety and control. It does this on a physiological level, which helps your mind feel calmer and clearer.
You feel safe again.
Many patients find it easier to process and recover from trauma when their body feels balanced and supported. It’s a holistic approach to healing that complements other treatments.

We often help with PTSD symptoms like:
● Anxiety and hypervigilance
● Sleep disruptions and nightmares
● Chronic tension or physical discomfort
● Emotional numbness or overwhelm
● Difficulty focusing or feeling present

Take the first step toward feeling better.

Some of you have already admired the new addition to my treatment room- a beautiful painting my amazing mother painted many years ago! A series called Young Explorer- here is the photo of me (age 10?) jumping into a pool with my brother that inspired her! (looks like I've always found my joy in the water!)
I am very honoured to be part of this artwork- 🥹🙏mum saw me as bravely jumping into the world like our Viking ancestors when I went on my extensive travels (as soon as I could -pre mobile phones, pre internet... sorry mum! See the next painting- how she imagined me in the Cloudforest of Costa Rica when I was 18 💚)

I based my logo on this image as to me it also represents the sensation and qualities that I hope people can feel from Acupuncture: lightness and freedom - and that sense of regaining your spark and glow ✨
My work, to me, is all about supporting people to regain true health in this way- because when we find relief from pain, fear or anxiety, and when we are supported to build physical and emotional resilience - we can feel strong enough to move forward boldly, and to radiate lightness and love, which of course helps everyone around us too 🥰💫✨💥💖
Life is for living well!
Also- Happy Icelandic Independence day! 🇮🇸

Don’t Let Foot Pain Stop You in Your Tracks!

Foot pain, like plantar fasciitis or general discomfort, can make even short spring walks feel like a chore. Acupuncture helps reduce inflammation and tension, providing natural relief from pain and improving mobility.
Whether your pain comes from overuse, poor footwear, or the remnants of winter-related stiffness and the shift to summer sandals (!), acupuncture supports your body’s ability to heal and adapt.
You’ll feel steady, mobile, and ready to enjoy the season without discomfort.
We frequently help with:
● Plantar fasciitis, heel pain
● Achilles tendonitis or tightness
● Pain in the ball of the foot (metatarsalgia)
● Arch pain or collapsed arches
● General foot stiffness and discomfort

Let’s put the spring back in your step, and clear out the pain, and help you enjoy a bit more activity. Call or text 07739105885 to ask more or to book your appointment today.

The Physical Effects of Adrenal Fatigue and Prolonged Stress

Adrenal Fatigue can show up in the body as tension, restlessness, trouble sleeping, or even digestive upset. When stress and fear become chronic, it can drain your energy and leave you feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
In TCM, stress that is related to fear can affect the Kidneys, which can disrupt the overall vitality of your body. That leads to exhaustion, lack of motivation, and lethargy.
Acupuncture helps calm the fight-or-flight response, relaxing both your mind and body. It supports your energy reserves and helps your body feel safe and grounded, empowering you to approach life with greater confidence and calm.
Reclaim your sense of safety and alleviate your stress.

Reproductive Health and Chinese Medicine
Reproductive health is essential to overall well-being, but it’s not always easy to navigate concerns like hormone imbalances, fertility challenges, or discomfort. Acupuncture offers a natural, effective way to support reproductive health for both men and women, addressing symptoms while promoting balance and vitality.
How Acupuncture Supports Reproductive Health:
● Balances Hormones: Acupuncture helps regulate hormonal cycles, reducing issues like irregular periods, low libido, or hormonal shifts.
● Improves Circulation: Better blood flow to reproductive organs enhances function and supports natural healing.
● Relieves Stress: Emotional stress can have a significant impact on reproductive health. Acupuncture calms the nervous system, helping your body stay in balance.
● Supports Fertility: For both men and women, acupuncture can improve fertility by
enhancing s***m and egg quality, regulating cycles, and addressing underlying health concerns.

Common Concerns We Address:
● For women: Irregular periods, PCOS, endometriosis, painful periods, fertility support, and menopause symptoms.
● For men: Low s***m count, motility issues, erectile dysfunction, and hormonal imbalances.
Acupuncture is about creating balance and helping you feel confident in your body’s ability to heal and thrive. Whether you’re working on fertility, managing chronic conditions, or seeking hormone balance, we’re here to help. Reproductive health is a key part of feeling vital no matter your age.
Call or text/ DM to schedule your free consultation, or click the link in bio to book your session today. Let’s take the next step in supporting your reproductive health, naturally.

Period Cramp Help—No Pills Required

If you dread your period each month because of cramps, heavy bleeding, or discomfort, acupuncture provides a safe, natural way to find relief. It reduces pain, regulates your bleeding, and improves your cycle’s regularity over time. Plus it often works really quickly- I love supporting women with these issues.
Unlike medications, which only mask symptoms, acupuncture addresses the root causes of menstrual pain. With a course of treatment, you can expect to experience more manageable periods with less cramping and discomfort.
Don’t let menstrual pain be the boss of you. You don't need to suffer every month!

“I’m old” doesn’t have to be your new mantra just because you feel stiff and achey
Aging isn’t just about how you look—it’s about how you feel.
If stiffness, fatigue, or slowing down are holding you back, acupuncture is a natural way to restore energy, improve flexibility, and help you move freely again.
Acupuncture supports better circulation, reduces inflammation, and enhances your body’s ability to heal, so you can feel vibrant and energized.
My patients notice improved energy, easier movement, and a renewed sense of vitality after regular treatments. One patient recently came in because she was really struggling with arthritic knees, and now has gone back to winning golf trophies, and just comes in for maintenance sessions every 6 weeks or so 😎🏆🏌🏻‍♀️🏌
This is the original anti-aging medicine- the secret to feeling vital for a good long life!
Stay active and energized at any age.
The new Infrared sauna is also amazing in-between treatments to support mobility and circulation ♨

Your recommendations mean so much!
I love online reviews ( I really do! Please keep them coming! It really helps people find me and the algorithms find me too...)

*And*- what truly warms my heart is when you send your loved ones to me- I'm so honoured to treat your sons and daughters, your parents, your partners, your siblings, your friends, your colleagues...
Sometimes the strangers you overhear in the hairdresser or in the queue 😆 (you know who you are!)

Word of mouth is always the best, and so appreciated- and I promise to look after all who are entrusted to me with the best care I can offer 💝🪄✨️
Thanks for another awesome week doing what I love and helping people live their best life
🙏
Have a lovely spring weekend ! 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌼🌷
