Acupuncture is system of healing based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles which is known to have been in development for thousands of years. It involves inserting thin, sterile needles into the skin and soft tissue to stimulate the body's natural healing abilities. There are specific points on the body where the needles may be placed, each point having its own unique therapeutic effect on the body. Acupuncture has been commonly used throughout the world to treat various health conditions, now, as more scientific research is published, acupuncture is becoming more widely accepted in the UK.

Fertility Acupuncture - Your initial consultation and 1st acupuncture treatment is £85. During this consultation we will go through your health history, cycles, any medical diagnosis, discuss our treatment goals, and answer any questions. This cost also includes your first acupuncture session which is 55mins including a brief in person consultation when you arrive. Your initial appointment will be billed in advance. Subsequent acupuncture sessions are £55 and include additional support, blood test analysis and more. I am a fertility support trained acupuncturist, I have studied in detail within this area and have also had IVF myself. Acu Facials are £110 per session, sessions last 1 hr. This includes, acupuncture, gua sha, facial cupping and facial massage. The needles, equipment and facial oils for this are specialist and not the same as normal acupuncture needles. This is only available to book between the hours of 7am - 3pm. Acupuncture for Migraines are £55 per session, this will also require an initial consultation to ensure we have a detailed history to treat your condition effectively.

The amount of treatments can vary from patient to patient depending on the condition(s) being treated. if you're coming for fertility acupuncture I need to work with your cycles so will usually need a minimum of 3 cycles to balance out hormones and make a difference. Our goal is always to give patients the best results in as few sessions as possible but as many as necessary for a long term solution. Acupuncture results are cumulative meaning each session builds on the last. As an example if a doctor gives you a course of medication you wouldn't take 1 pill and expect to be cured straight away, acupuncture is no different, it takes a course of treatment especially if the condition treated has been present for years it isnt going to be cured in 1 treatment.

The ideal frequency is weekly but I know this isnt always possible. As we are trying to work with your hormones and cycle the minimum is fortightly to see a change, any less than this isn't recommended.

It's best to wear comfortable clothing to your appointment, clothing which is able to be pulled up to the knee easily is ideal.
