💛 Children’s Mental Health Week 💛

During Children’s Mental Health Week, we’re shining a light on gentle, supportive ways to help children feel calmer, more balanced and emotionally supported.

Our experienced practitioners use age-appropriate treatments to support children including massage, cupping, moxa, herbal fomulas and gentle acupuncture techniques. These can be effective for children of all ages experiencing anxiety, emotional overwhelm, sleep difficulties, irregular eating patterns and help with focus or regulation. Treatment is always adapted to the child’s age, sensitivity and comfort level.

We have extensive experience supporting children and teenagers through puberty and adolescence - times of major neurological, hormonal and emotional change that can impact mental wellbeing.

We work with young people who are neurodivergent, offering gentle techniques such as massage, moxa and acupressure to support sensory regulation, reduce overwhelm and help the nervous system feel more settled.

We believe caring for mental health early can help build resilience and have profound impact for children’s lives.

Please get in touch to find out more.

🌟Winter Wellness Tips from Chinese Medicine🌟

Cold & flu season is here, and this is the perfect time to support your immune system

🍐Pear Soup
In Chinese medicine, pears help moisten the lungs and soothe dry or phlegmy coughs. It’s especially popular when coughs feel scratchy, irritating or worse at night

🧣Tiger Balm Throat Wrap
Rub a small amount on the neck and upper chest, then wrap whole area with a scarf or long sock. This warming trick helps circulation and the herbs support the throat when you’re feeling run down. Protecting your neck protects your Qi!

🌿 Herbs for Prevention and Acute Illness
Herbs and acupuncture can strengthen your Wei Qi (defensive energy) so your body is better prepared to fight off winter bugs.
We can also recommend and supply the best herbal remedies to support colds & flu based on your symptoms.

Small daily rituals can make a big difference this season. Stay warm, rest well and let us support you.

At this time of year, the lungs (inspiration) and large intestine (letting go) play a key role in our health. In ancient texts, the lungs are known as the “fragile” or “tender” organ, making them more vulnerable to coughs, colds and seasonal changes.

Using gentle acupressure combined with a few slow, deep breaths on these points can help support immunity and overall balance.

For more in-depth guidance and ways to use essential oils alongside these points, visit our website, 🔗 in bio

Male fertility plays an essential role in conception and overall reproductive health. During Fertility Awareness Week, we’re highlighting how acupuncture can support men as a complementary therapy alongside conventional fertility treatments such as IVF or ICSI.

Research suggests it can benefit several aspects of male fertility:

✔️ Improve s***m count, motility, and morphology
✔️ Enhance hormonal balance and testosterone levels
✔️ Increase blood flow to the reproductive organs
✔️ Reduce stress and promote overall wellbeing

At our clinics, we take an holistic approach to reproductive wellness which includes herbs, nutrition, lifestyle changes and stress management, addressing physical and emotional factors.

If you’re exploring ways to enhance fertility to support male reproductive health, get in touch and we can talk you through our individual approach.

During Back Care Awareness Week, we’re shining a light on how acupuncture and cupping can help ease persistent pain, release muscle tension, and restore balance naturally.

Acupuncture and cupping works by:

✔️ Stimulating the body’s natural healing response
✔️ Improving circulation to strained or injured areas
✔️ Reducing inflammation and calming the nervous system

If back pain has been holding you back, this week is the perfect time to take action for your body and wellbeing.

We work with all types of chronic pain, including migraines, arthritis, and joint stiffness. It can affect every part of life both physically and emotionally.

No two people experience pain the same way, that’s why every acupuncture treatment plan is tailored to you and your needs.

Tap into the power of acupressure as we transition though late summer.

This is the season of Earth and it is all about grounding, digesting (both food and life experiences), and finding stability after the movement of summer energies. It’s also a time to tend to the body’s centre, our Earth, so that we move into autumn feeling nourished and steady.

Yintang – “The Third Eye”

Stomach 36 (ST36) (Zusanli) – “Leg Three Miles”

Heart 7 (HT7) (Shenmen) – “Spirit Gate”

You can use gentle pressure and a few deep breaths on each point or for more in depth advice and use of essential oils please see our website or contact us.
