A strong desire to help you attain a better state of health is the principle that my practice is built upon.
Commitment: You will be informed whether I believe acupuncture to be the best therapy for you at this time, or whether referral to another therapy would be more appropriate.
Enthusiasm: I will explain how your current disharmony may have occurred in relation to the Chinese view of your body – this can be quite fascinating and will also enable you to implement lifestyle/dietary changes yourself in order to ensure balance is achieved and maintained.
Dedication: Every disharmony and every person is different – I will work with you to find the best treatment strategy for you, leaving no stone unturned.
Location: My clinic is in the Village of Blackthorn nr Bicester and is easily accessible and only a short drive for those requiring acupuncture living in the North Oxfordshire, Buckingham, Aylesbury and Milton Keynes areas.
