About the Business
I have been in private practice since 2004 and run clinics in Bath and Tetbury. I feel very lucky to be in the position to help people get well and stay well; it is very rewarding work seeing people benefiting from treatment and improving their quality of life.
My training encompassed both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Five Element styles of acupuncture. This integration of styles enables me to treat specific problems as well as aiding your well-being on a deeper constitutional level. I hold a Licentiate (LicAc) and a BSc(Hons) degree in Acupuncture.
I studied a three-year Shiatsu diploma with the Shiatsu College in Bristol. In addition, I have undertaken a number of specialist courses, including a workshop focusing on working with people with cancer. I have studied Usui Reiki to Master level and beyond with teachers in England and India and regularly hold Reiki training workshops.

Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
How can Acupuncture benefit you?
There is a growing body of evidence-based clinical research showing that Acupuncture safely treats a wide range of common health problems, from clearly defined complaints such as headaches, neck and back ache and osteoarthritic knee pain, through to more general feelings of ill health such as low energy. The World Health Organization has compiled a long list of conditions it considers Acupuncture to be proven effective in treating, including depression, morning sickness, rheumatoid arthritis, tennis elbow and high blood pressure.
How does Acupuncture work?
Acupuncture originated in China more than 2000 years ago. It uses Chinese Medicine principles to diagnose patterns of imbalance in your body. Treatments aim to address the root of your condition as well as your main symptoms. The focus of Chinese Medicine is on the individual, not the illness, and the diagnosis is unique to each individual. For example, an identical Western diagnosis given to five different people may manifest slightly differently in each of these five people; I will seek to discover how your body best responds to treatment, and design a treatment that is unique to you.
