About Me

Welcome to the world of traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture

About Me

I have always been interested in holistic healthcare and combining Eastern and Western medicine to support the body in a physical, mental, spiritual and psychological way. From personal experience, acupuncture has provided additional benefits alongside Western medicine, which has supported me as a whole, and this is something I’d like to help others achieve.

I originally trained as a nurse specialising in pain management, oncology, paediatrics and those with complex health needs. My love for alternative medicine continued throughout my nursing career and I undertook extra courses which I could use alongside my nursing to support my patients. I studied Reiki, infant massage and the Alexander Technique. I then decided acupuncture was another therapy I wanted to study as it has been of great benefit to me.

I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council as such I adhere to strict codes of practice to ensure the best care possible according to evidence-based medicine.
