Motivated by her own experience of the impact acupuncture can have as we navigate an increasingly stressful world, Charlotte re-trained as a practitioner in 2021. Completing her training under the supervision of a highly accredited practitioner in London further deepened her understanding of the Five Element theory and practice.

Classical Five Element Acupuncture is a holistic approach to healthcare that originated in China over 2,000 years ago. It is based on the belief that health and wellbeing depend on the balance of the Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. These elements represent different aspects of the natural world and are associated with specific organs, emotions and seasons.

Treatment is individualised and addresses the root cause of symptoms, restoring balance and promoting healing. It’s used to treat a wide range of physical and emotional conditions, including stress, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, digestive issues, and fertility problems.

Beginning with a thorough assessment of the patient’s physical, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing, the initial appointment will be 90 minutes. A treatment plan is created based on the individual’s unique constitution and current imbalances. Treatment follow ups are 60 minutes, and may involve the use of moxibustion, cupping and Gua-sha to further support and enhance the acupuncture.

Fully accredited and insured member of the British Acupuncture Council.

 Initial consultation 90 mins: £85.

 Follow up 60 mins: £65.

 For enquiries or to book a 15-minute intro call with Charlotte, please get in touch.

Simone is a qualified physiotherapist with experience in musculoskeletal and respiratory disorders. She feels that the best way to treat a client is to listen to their story, understand what changes have occurred and to teach the client how to best heal themselves.

Pain is not something we should have to put up with and although it is experienced physically there is also a mental aspect to it. Simone aims to improve specific movements and functional activities in order to reduce her client’s pain, and to break the dysfunctional feedback loop feeding in to the brains perception of pain.

Physiotherapy is an exercise-based treatment that should be continued outside of treatment sessions in order to maximise its effectiveness.
