An Integrated Approach —
What’s different about my approacH
Often people’s observations of their own health can be overlooked in Western Medicine. There isn’t the time and resources to dig deeper and really listen to a patient. People come to me having being told to ‘just relax’ or ‘just keep trying’ when they have a gut feeling something is wrong, or that their symptoms are connected. As a Chinese Medicine practitioner, the questions and detail are so important, because we link things in a different way to a Western Medicine. The way I diagnose in my work values the individual, as well as the essential diagnostic tests and latest research.
Initial consultation
Prior to your initial consultation, I will ask for any tests or investigations you have had done to review. I offer a 90-minute consultation. This allows plenty of time for us to discuss your story; whether you’ve just started trying, are preparing to conceive later, starting IVF or further into a more complex journey.

Your Personalised report
Following your consultation, I prepare a personalised report for you. This report includes a clear acupuncture treatment plan and recommendations on diet and lifestyle in line with your diagnosis and testing (if not yet ventured into).
I believe in working transparently, keeping you informed of your treatment progress and when/if there are optimal times for treatment or when additional testing is necessary. As a fertility support practitioner, I am trained to see the issues that can stand in your way of becoming pregnant and adapt my Chinese Medicine approach accordingly.
My bespoke service includes:
Acupuncture treatment
Facilitating and reviewing hormone testing
Fast-track referrals to tried and tested consultants or specialist laboratories for fertility investigations, advanced sperm testing and microbiome testing
““I did not expect the comprehensive health analysis and recommendations that I received. All of this is like gold dust and really valuable information. I’ve since made some really positive changes.””
