✨ Finished our 8-week Maggie’s Auricular Acupuncture Course today! ✨

It’s been such a pleasure working with three groups of lovely people over the past 8 weeks, using auricular acupuncture to help manage hot flushes and night sweats. 💚

A huge thank you to everyone who took part. Your openness, humour and support for one another made these sessions so special. 🌿

I also want to acknowledge those who started with us in week 1 but couldn’t make it to the end, you were missed today!

(And a little note to Group 2… I realised too late that we forgot to take our photo! 📸💛)

Thank you again to everyone who made this course such a success.

Why not talk to me about how I use traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) acupuncture to treat the root cause and not just the symptoms. Appointments available from 10th of November

Want to feel good again?

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Acupuncture treats the whole person, not just the presenting symptoms. This can mean that when you start treatment multiple areas of your life improve, such as sleep, tiredness or mood.

🚨 IMPORTANT: Clinic Updates 🚨 Prices and Cancellation Policy

From 18th September 2025, I’ll be changing from a 24-hour to a 48-hour cancellation policy.

Why? Recently, I’ve had an increase in cancellations over the past few months which are just outside of the 24-hour cancellation window.

Because I don’t take deposits, late cancellations mean I lose both income and valuable time that could have been offered to someone else. It’s not just the missed appointment, I still have to cover rent, membership fees, and running costs.

For every appointment, I also spend time before you arrive making sure I’m giving you the best treatment for where you are in your journey. Last-minute cancellations mean that work is already done, even if the appointment doesn’t go ahead.

👉 New Cancellation Policy:
❌ Cancel less than 48 hours before = 50% of the treatment required
❌ Cancel within 24 hours / don’t attend = full treatment cost required

💷 Price Update
From 1st October 2025, there will be a small increase to prices across all treatments due to rising operating costs. An acupuncture appointment will be £66.50, previously £65, and you can view the updated price list on my website.

I know emergencies happen, so please just let me know as soon as you can and I’ll always do my best to help.

💚 Thank you for valuing my time and expertise, and for supporting my small business.
