Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that has been refined over thousands of years. This ancient practice involves the precise insertion of ultra-fine needles into specific points on the body to stimulate healing, reduce pain, and restore balance.
Modern research confirms what traditional practitioners have long known: acupuncture effectively treats a wide range of conditions by influencing the nervous system, releasing natural pain-killers, and promoting the body's self-healing mechanisms.

Your journey to better health begins with understanding what happens during an acupuncture session.
Here's a detailed overview of your treatment experience at our London clinic.
We begin with a comprehensive health assessment, discussing your medical history, current symptoms, and health goals. This includes traditional diagnostic methods like tongue and pulse examination.
Based on your assessment, we create a personalised treatment plan, selecting specific acupuncture points tailored to your condition and constitution.
Ultra-fine, sterile needles are gently inserted into specific points. Most patients feel minimal sensation—often described as a mild tingling or warmth.
You'll rest comfortably for 20-30 minutes while the needles work. Many patients find this deeply relaxing, with some even falling asleep.
We provide lifestyle and dietary recommendations to enhance your treatment results and support your healing between sessions.
Initial consultation: 60-90 minutes
Follow-up sessions: 45-60 minutes
Typically once or twice weekly initially, reducing as symptoms improve
Many notice improvements after 2-3 sessions, with optimal results after 6-8 treatments
We employ various traditional and modern acupuncture techniques to ensure optimal treatment outcomes:
Classical approach based on meridian theory and Traditional Chinese Medicine principles. Treats the root cause while addressing symptoms for comprehensive healing.
Mild electrical stimulation enhances traditional needle therapy, particularly effective for chronic pain, neurological conditions, and muscle rehabilitation.
Ancient technique using suction cups to improve blood flow, release muscle tension, and draw out toxins. Often combined with acupuncture for enhanced results.
Gentle heat therapy using dried mugwort to warm acupuncture points. Particularly beneficial for digestive issues, fatigue, and certain gynecological conditions.
Specialised technique focusing on ear points that correspond to different body systems. Excellent for addiction treatment, stress relief, and weight management.
Traditional scraping technique that releases muscle tension, improves circulation, and boosts immune function. Often used for pain, colds, and fever.
Experience the wide-ranging benefits of acupuncture for your physical and emotional wellbeing:
Stimulates the body's natural pain-killing chemicals, providing relief without medications or their side effects.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during acupuncture. The needles are ultra-fine (about the width of a hair), and insertion typically feels like a mild pinch or tingling sensation. Once the needles are in place, many people find the treatment deeply relaxing. Some even fall asleep during sessions.
The number of sessions varies depending on your condition and how you respond to treatment. Acute conditions may improve within 3-6 sessions, while chronic conditions typically require 8-12 sessions or more. After your initial assessment, we'll provide a personalised treatment plan with an estimated timeline.
When performed by qualified practitioners, acupuncture is extremely safe. We use only single-use, sterile needles and follow strict hygiene protocols. Side effects are rare and typically mild, such as slight bruising at needle sites. Serious complications are extremely rare when treatment is provided by registered professionals.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that can be easily rolled up above your knees and elbows. Many acupuncture points are located on the lower legs and arms. We also provide gowns if needed. Avoid wearing tight clothing or items that are difficult to remove.
Yes, acupuncture can be safely used during pregnancy when performed by practitioners trained in prenatal care. It can help with morning sickness, back pain, fatigue, and preparation for labour. However, certain points are avoided during pregnancy. Always inform your practitioner if you are or might be pregnant.
Many UK health insurance providers now cover acupuncture treatments. Coverage varies by policy and provider. We work with most major insurance companies and can provide receipts for reimbursement. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about your specific coverage before booking.
