Migraine & Headaches
Frequent headaches and migraines can really disrupt daily life. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recommends acupuncture as a treatment option to help prevent chronic tension-type headaches and migraines, and many people find it offers meaningful relief.
Anxiety & Stress
Research has shown that Acupuncture can decrease anxiety and enhance the effectiveness of certain antidepressants - helping to increase serotonin levels and to lessen the side effects of antidepressants. It can help you to feel settled, grounded and positive. As it relaxes the brain and muscles, stress and tension throughout the body reduces.
Pain Management
The National Institute of Health suggests that Acupuncture works particularly well on chronic pain. It is also very effective in the treatment of chronic, acute and injury pain including arthritis pain, lower back pain, neck pain and shoulder pain, knee pain, sports injuries, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, sciatic pain as well as neurological pain.
Sleep Problems
Insomnia can come in many forms. Some people have difficulty falling asleep, others have no trouble falling asleep but wake up during the night and are unable to go back to sleep. Acupuncture treatments can help stimulate melatonin production which induces sleep onset, helps in staying asleep and in waking up feeling rested.
Tiredness & Fatigue
Acupuncture can be a supportive treatment for persistent tiredness and low energy. Studies suggest it may help regulate the nervous system, improve sleep quality, and enhance overall vitality. It can also be beneficial for fatigue related to stress, burnout, long working hours, or recovery from illness, helping the body restore balance and feel more energised.

Acupuncture can be effective in treating seasonal allergies, food intolerances and skin conditions including acne. It can also be of benefit in the treatment of eczema, psoriasis, and upper respiratory disorders, such as allergic rhinitis, asthma, hay fever, acute sinusitis and common cold.
