More and more people are seeking acupuncture and finding it effective for treating a variety of health related issues. It is used to restore, promote and maintaingood health by stimulating the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Acupuncture should be a relaxing and enjoyable experience that helps you to feel stronger physically, mentally and emotionally. Acupuncture is considered suitable for people of all ages and can safely be used alongside conventional medicine. Acupressure is available for children and people with a fear of needles. I am a fully qualified acupuncturist, providing acupuncture in Shoreham By Sea and the surrounding areas including Southwick, Sompting, Worthing, Steyning and Upper Beeding. I was awarded a first class Honours degree, as well as a Licentiate in acupuncture from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, Reading. This 4 year course included a comprehensive study of both Chinese and Western medical sciences to ensure a good understanding of the conventional illnesses diagnosed and treated by primary healthcare practitioners.
Acupuncture is a safe and effective form of medicine that has been practised in the Far East for thousands of years; it is the oldest continually practised healthcare system in the world but is as relevant now as ever. Acupuncture can provide the perfect respite for conditions associated with stress, which are so common in our busy 21st century lives.
