About Me

I graduated from the College of Traditional Acupuncture in Warwick with a first-class B.A. (Hons) degree and am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC), the leading regulatory body for the practice of acupuncture in the UK. Over the years, I have held clinics in both Chester and Manchester.

In 2010, I helped to establish the Manchester branch of the London-based 'Kite Clinic', one of the UK’s leading Acupuncture practices, specialising in fertility problems, and have myself treated many patients (of both sexes) with great success. I am also a member of the Northwest Acupuncture Fertility Network.

I consider myself to be a very dedicated and enthusiastic Practitioner and I enjoy building on my knowledge and practice of Acupuncture by attending study days in London faciltated by Judy Worsley and Nora Franglen, who are considered to be amongst the best Acupuncturists in the world. I have attended a number of post-graduate training days on women's health, infertility and pain management. I enjoy treating all different types of conditions and feel that Acupuncture can be extremely beneficial for patients with emotional issues. Just recently, I have enjoyed working with the marketing department of the BAcC, providing case studies for the national press and, in 2011, I appeared in a feature on Acupuncture in the Daily Express.

As well as continuing with my practice based at 'Leaf, Lifestyle and Beauty' in Gateshealth, Chester, I have recently taken up a new position at 'GyneHealth' in Manchester working for Mr Luciano Nardo, a leading Consultant in Gynaecology and Reproductive Medicine. Mr Nardo is also a Director of 'North West Fertility', one of the largest and most successful private IVF clinics in the UK.

My acupuncture treatments are tailored to each individual patient's needs and I work at a deeper level of seeking to establish the true, underlying cause of disease, rather than simply treating reactively the patient's presenting symptoms. I am keen to see patients not only as they present themselves in illness but, more importantly, as they would be in perfect health and balance; in full discovery of their true nature; unique in body, mind and spirit.
