Acupuncture in London.

Two traditions, one clinic. We practise both Traditional Chinese acupuncture and Western Medical Acupuncture / Dry Needling.

Choose Traditional Chinese acupuncture for fertility, digestive, anxiety and systemic issues and general wellness - and Western Medical Acupuncture/ Dry Needling for aches and pains, injuries and musculoskeletal issues.
— TWO ROUTES —

Which kind of acupuncture do you need?

ROUTE ONE

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture

Diagnosis by pattern — pulse, tongue and case history — treating the system rather than only the site of pain.
BEST FOR
Fertility, migraine, IBS, anxiety, sleep, and long-standing pain that has no clear mechanical cause
DIAGNOSIS
Pulse, tongue and full case history
NEEDLING
Fine needles retained 20–30 minutes at points across the body
TYPICAL COURSE
Weekly sessions or timed around fertility cycle then spaced out with improvement
LED BY CLINICAL DIRECTOR 25 YEARS EXPERIENCE
At this time Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is only delivered by the Clinical Director, who is also fully trained in Medical Acupuncture and Dry Needling.
ROUTE TWO

Medical Acupuncture & Dry Needling

Western anatomical diagnosis — needling trigger points directly to release muscle and restore movement.
BEST FOR
Trigger points, sports injuries, back and neck pain, and headaches driven by muscle tension
DIAGNOSIS
Orthopaedic assessment and palpation
NEEDLING
Brief, targeted needling into the muscle itself
TYPICAL COURSE
Dependent on severity of the issue/injury, always accompanied by expert clinical diagnosis and manual therapy
LED BY OSTEOPATHS AND PHYSIOTHERAPISTS

Why Choose Us for Acupuncture

Unlike many acupuncture clinics, our treatment isn't delivered in isolation by acupuncture-only practitioners. Our medical acupuncture and dry needling is delivered by osteopaths and physiotherapists — experts in clinical medical diagnosis and orthopaedic training — meaning you benefit from a properly qualified clinical assessment before a single needle is used, and treatment is always paired with exceptional hands-on care as part of the same appointment.

Our Traditional Chinese Acupuncture is currently delivered exclusively by our Clinical Director, who is both a fully qualified osteopath and a TCM-trained acupuncturist. This rare combination brings a genuine depth of knowledge and specialisation you won't often find elsewhere — a practitioner equally versed in Western orthopaedic diagnosis and traditional Chinese medicine principles, treating you with the full weight of both disciplines behind every session.
— BEFORE YOU BOOK —

The questions we get every week.

The needles are similar; the reasoning is not. Traditional Chinese acupuncture diagnoses by pattern — pulse, tongue and full case history — and treats the whole system, which is why it suits fertility, migraine, IBS and sleep. Medical acupuncture, or dry needling, works from a Western anatomical diagnosis and needles the muscle directly to release trigger points, which is faster for sports injuries and mechanical back and neck pain.

If your problem is mechanical and you can point to it, start with medical acupuncture.

If it is systemic, long-standing, or has no clear mechanical cause, start with Traditional Chinese acupuncture.

Yes, and for a lot of cases that is the right answer. Because our practitioners are trained in both traditions, the two can run inside a single sixty-minute appointment rather than being billed as separate treatments.
