What is

What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is one of the world’s oldest therapies, practised for more than 2,000 years and now used alongside modern healthcare across the UK.
NICE, which advises the NHS, recommends it as an option for some types of long-term pain and for helping to prevent migraine.
Treatment uses very fine, single-use needles, barely thicker than a hair, placed at carefully chosen points on the body. Most people feel little more than a light tingle, followed by a deep sense of calm. Research suggests acupuncture works with the nervous system, encouraging the body to release its own natural pain-relieving chemicals.
People come to acupuncture for many different reasons, and no two treatments are the same. Each session is shaped around you: your health, your lifestyle and what you’d like to change. If you’re wondering whether acupuncture could suit your particular concern, Philippe is always happy to talk it through by phone or email before you book.
Whether it’s a back that has ached for months, headaches that keep coming back, or you simply want an hour to properly switch off, your first session starts with a relaxed conversation. Many people are surprised by how much they look forward to their next visit.
