What can I treat?

I can’t possibly list everything I can treat, but this is a snapshot of the issues I often treat:

• Pain (of all kinds: arthritis, muscular pain, injuries such as strains; hip, back, neck, shoulders; sciatica, carpal tunnel and nerve pains)

• Headaches and migraines

• Stress, anxiety and depression

• Digestive discomfort (acid reflux, IBS, constipation, bowel problems)

• Fatigue, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia

• Insomnia

• Menstrual health: relief from painful periods, excess bleeding, and other related conditions.

• Menopausal and peri-menopausal symptoms

• Asthma, breathlessness

• Skin conditions

Treatments are always tailored to your needs. At your first treatment, I will conduct a longer consultation to understand the root of your discomfort and get a sense of both immediate and long-term needs.

You can often feel a change for the better after or even during your first treatment, and any improvement should build over following consultations. As a good rule of thumb, the longer you have had a condition, the longer the course of treatment will be, but you can expect things to start improving early on.

Safety is always my top priority. I will always ask whether you’re taking medicine and if so I’ll need to know what it is. Generally speaking acupuncture and massage are safe to administer alongside medicines; if I offer you herbal medicine, I check all of the ingredients against your medication to make sure it’s safe.
