Welcome to Chinese Herbal Medicine Services for Acupuncturists.

With a nerdy passion for Chinese herbal medicine and a focus on women's health, I'm excited to collaborate with fellow acupuncturists like you to provide comprehensive care to your clients.

Here some of the ways Chinese herbal medicine can complement acupuncture:

• Have you noticed how your clients have been steadily improving but then reached a plateau? Chinese herbal medicine can help them overcome this final stage.

• You've likely encountered clients with complex fertility cases, endometriosis, PCOS, post-birth control syndrome, stubborn (peri)menopausal symptoms etc, which require a multi-angle approach. This is where Chinese herbs can make a real difference.

• Isn’t it frustrating when clients don't make any lifestyle changes between treatments? While I don't claim that Chinese herbal medicine can fill that gap, the fact they are taking their herbs every day, can support the efficacy of your acupuncture.

• Is your client going away or on holiday? Herbs come in light, portable sachets: their treatment continues.

• Are you are going on holiday? Fear not: your clients are still receiving care and support.

These are just some of the ways that Chinese herbal medicine can support your clients and your work.

Now… I’m going to name the elephant in the room. There is often an air of superiority from herbalists towards acupuncturists because of their additional training. 

I am not one of those. 

I genuinely seek collaboration and will follow your directives in supporting your clients. We speak the same language of Chinese medicine and our collaboration can enhance the care we provide.

I want to emphasise that you will remain the primary practitioner for your clients. I offer additional support but have no intention of taking over their care. Geographically, I am based in rural Devon, making chances of close proximity almost non-existent!

I have been in practice for 15 years and I’m a member of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine (RCHM) in the UK. I only use fully approved suppliers in the UK and Europe.
