I feel so privileged to do the work I do and reviews like this are the cherry on the cake!

Supporting women and couples through, often very difficult, fertility treatment and navigating all the highs and lows is so special.

If you’re trying to conceive or planning a family in 2026, please do get in touch to find out how acupuncture could support you to becoming a parent or expanding your family!

Christmas can be a tricky time of year for lots of people and not least when you’re trying to conceive (TTC)

The inevitable intrusive questions and thoughtless comments, the festive events, alcohol, late nights and time away from home can be hard if you’re TTC.

We’ve got some tips for helping ease the pressure a bit, and there’s a blog on this topic over on the website too (link in bio).

So if you do find this time of year hard, remember you’re not alone and how you feel is perfectly valid.

I hope these tips, and the blog, help give you some ideas for your toolkit and if you have any other tips to add, please do share in the comments 👇🏼

Hi! I’m Rebecca, the face behind Thrive Acupuncture!
After a 20+ year career in Financial Services, reaching a senior leadership level, I took a leap of faith to pursue my true passion: women’s health.

I retrained, achieving a First Class BSc (Hons) degree in Acupuncture and I haven’t stopped learning since!

I’m a Yorkshire lass at heart, driven to support women just like you! I’m a passionate advocate for every woman (and girl) and their health journey. I believe that acupuncture holds the key to helping overcome so many of the health related barriers women encounter. It is phenomenal for menstrual health, fertility, hormonal balance, and crucially, our emotional well-being.

✨My Expertise

I specialise in key areas of women’s health:
- Fertility (natural & assisted conception)
- Obstetrics (pregnancy acupuncture)
- Menstrual health & hormonal balance
- Emotional well-being

I truly believe acupuncture should be part of every woman’s toolkit to navigate the pressures and health barriers we face. We’re expected to do it all, and you deserve physical and emotional support.

When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll find me spending time with my two boys, cooking or curled up with a good book!

If you’re ready to make your health a priority, let’s discuss how acupuncture can support your goals, whether it’s balancing hormones, enhancing fertility or managing stresss and anxiety.

This week is Infertility Awareness Week, so here's a few things I'd like you to know about acupuncture and fertility challenges...
1 in 6 couples experience fertility challenges. You are not alone.

The emotional weight that comes with infertility can be as intense as facing serious illness — it’s not “just stress.” You didn’t cause this by not relaxing enough or thinking the wrong thoughts. It’s so much more complex than that.

Acupuncture offers a calm, supportive space to reconnect with your body — to regulate hormones, ease anxiety, improve blood flow, and help you feel more grounded throughout your fertility journey.

If you’ve been told you have “unexplained” infertility, please remember: undiagnosed is not a diagnosis. There is always more to explore, understand, and support.
You are not broken. You are not alone. And your story matters. 💫

If this resonates, save or share to help raise awareness — and know that gentle, holistic support is here whenever you’re ready.

I’m delighted to have been nominated in the Otley Business Awards in the Best Newcomer category! 🎉

I opened my little business a year ago on Tuesday and it’s been such an incredible 12 months! I’m so grateful to those who nominated me and to everyone who’s ever come for treatment, bought an ear seed kit, shared or commented on a post or supported me in any way - the little things really do mean such a lot to a small business 😊
