Such an important project that I am lucky enough to be part of. It really is making a difference and needs to keep going!

Can you help us stay open?

For 4 years, The Little Acupuncture Room has quietly supported hundreds of babies, children and teenagers across Oxford — many of them referred by schools or families who couldn’t afford private care.

We offer low-cost and free acupuncture in a calm, nurturing space — and we do it because we believe no child should miss out on care due to cost.

But now, we’re at risk of closing.

We’ve lost key funding and urgently need help to keep going. If you can, please:

👉 Donate to our fundraiser https://gofund.me/b2666a032
👉 Share this with friends, family or your school community
👉 Help us keep supporting the children who already rely on us — and the many more still to come

With love and thanks,
The Little Acupuncture Room team

I love working with people of all ages, but treating children has its own rewards…

Acupuncture is a wonderful way to gently restore balance to your child’s health and wellbeing, especially following periods of emotion and illness.

At The Little Acupuncture Room, we are a team of high-trained, dedicated and professional acupuncturists who put children at the heart of everything we do.

We have all completed post-graduate paediatric training

We work collaboratively as a team, each bringing our own skills and experiences to the clinic.

We all have an enhanced DBS check and have completed paediatric first aid training.

We are here to support the whole family and our mission is make acupuncture accessible to everyone who needs it.

A lovely testimonial from The children’s clinic I’ve started working at. What a rewarding job!

😃😀Happy brothers! It's great when we get to treat the whole family and hear how much the children enjoy their treatment.

The good news is that I am still able to treat people through the second lockdown. I will still be carrying out all of my covid safe procedures and risk assessing everyone before treatment. Let keep everyone happy and healthy!

I'm back! The clinic is now up and running, albeit in a covid-safe manner. The acupuncture remains the same and it's GREAT to see everyone again and be back in the clinic.

In light of the Covid-19 situation, I have temporarily stopped practising acupuncture. I really look forward to welcoming everyone back when things begin to improve.
In the mean time the daffodils are out, the birds are singing. May the spring give us the hope and compassion for what lies ahead.

ACUPUNCTURE and the CORNOVIRUS

As the Corona situation develops, I want to assure you that as a member of the British Acupuncture Council I operate under strict hygiene and safety codes as standard and I'm taking all necessary precautions to protect the safety of our practitioners and patients.



This includes additional routine disinfection of surfaces and equipment, hand sanitizer provision for staff and clients, thorough hand washing after every point of contact and the highest possible hygiene standards carried out by myself.



I have made some simple changes as extra precautions, including removing couch covers and doubling up the couch roll. I would also ask you to use hand sanitiser before your treatment.



Please follow NHS and government guidelines if you're feeling unwell before your appt. Feel free to call if you're unsure.



I have a duty of care to you and to myself and care very much about creating a safe and caring clinic. I will continue to evaluate the risks and communicate with you.

Placebo acupuncture can ease short-term pain but the real thing might help to reverse the underlying pathology of a disease
