Yes. I am a member of the Association of Acupuncture Clinicians (AAC), which requires practitioners to meet rigorous training and safety standards. I use sterile, single-use needles for every treatment.

Acupuncture needles are extremely fine - nothing like an injection. Most people feel very little at the point of insertion. Sessions are deeply relaxing and many patients fall asleep.

This depends on your condition. Most people notice changes within the first two to four sessions. A typical course is six to twelve weekly sessions. For fertility, I recommend at least three months of weekly treatment where possible.

I’m based in Bricket Wood, St Albans — five minutes from Radlett, easily accessible from the M25, M1, A414 and A405. Free street parking is available at all times. Local train station and bus stops within walking distance.

Possibly. As an AAC member, my treatments are recognised by many private health insurers. Check your policy or the AAC website for details.

Acupuncture works by regulating the hormonal communication between your brain and reproductive organs, reducing cortisol (the stress hormone that disrupts cycles and ovulation), improving blood flow to the pelvic organs, and reducing inflammation. The result is more balanced hormones, more regular cycles, and often a significant reduction in symptoms like period pain, PMS, hot flushes and fertility challenges. 

Yes. Alongside women's health, I treat headaches and migraine, insomnia, TMJ, back, neck and shoulder pain, sciatica and other everyday aches and pains. Take a look at my General Health page or book a free 15 minute call to talk it through.
