Acupuncture

Acupuncture stimulates your body’s natural pain killers.

Among many other things, acupuncture can be used to:

• Relieve pain

• Reduce inflammation

• Relax muscles

• Calm your nervous system

• Stimulate healthy digestion

• Disperse headaches

• Improve sleep

Chinese medicine is holistic and the perspective it gives allows me to offer insights that Western-style treatments may not offer. Any treatments given will not interfere with medicine you take, but should help alongside them.

I’ve written a blog piece about a few different ways that acupuncture works, click here to read it. Please contact me if you want to find out more or ask any questions.

A 2017 study lists acupuncture as having an effect on a significant number of conditions: Australian Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine Association research.

The National Institute for Clinical Excellence recommended acupuncture as a treatment for chronic pain in a 2021 report.

As a British Acupuncture Council acupuncturist, many health insurance schemes will pay for my acupuncture treatments. I often combine deep tissue massage with acupuncture, which could also qualify. Please ask me for further details if this interests you.
