I've always seen people as jigsaw puzzles.

Give me all the pieces, your history, your symptoms, your story, the things that don't seem connected and I'll help you put yourself back together.

I didn't arrive at acupuncture in a straight line. I grew up in a household where complementary medicine was simply normal. My father farmed organically and trained as a chiropractor at a time when both were considered eccentric. So a different way of seeing health was just... how we saw things.

I started my working life as a veterinary nurse. I loved animals but something wasn't quite right. It took me a while to realise I'd been overlooking my own passion, complementary medicine because I assumed I didn't have the qualifications to pursue it. It turned out I didn't need them. I went to an acupuncture training weekend on a whim and I was hooked. They talked about people and illness in exactly the way I had always understood them.

That was over 30 years ago.

Since then I've accumulated a lot of knowledge, not to collect letters after my name but because whenever I couldn't find an answer for a client, I went and found it. I've studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, bodywork, coaching and more. I'm also a black belt in Wing Chun and spent years home educating my two sons, both neurodivergent, both now happily studying the things they love. Understanding how people work, bodies, minds, learning, energy has never just been my job. It's genuinely how I'm wired.

Acupuncture is the door most people walk through. What happens inside the room is harder to put into words but my clients tend to find their own. Magic lady. Sanctuary. Secret weapon.

If you're someone who's tried the obvious routes and still doesn't feel right, you might be exactly who I work best with.
