it is generally recommended to have more than one acupuncture session because the treatments benefits often accumulate over time. (Signs that your treatment is working are: increased energy and motivation, improved sleep, improved digestive health, and reduced stress.
Acupuncture works cumulatively - its benefits often build over time. Most people begin to notice positive changes such as increased energy and motivation, better sleep, improved mood, and reduced stress.
I usually recommend an initial course of 4–6 treatments to allow your body time to respond. After that, occasional top-up sessions can help maintain your progress, depending on the condition being treated.
Following intensive radiotherapy, I developed severe side effects including chronic dry mouth and excruciating daily headaches. For nearly two years, I lived with migraine-level pain (10/10), struggled to speak, and avoided social contact completely. It deeply affected my personality, confidence, and mental health. After just one session with Anna, the headaches stopped - and they haven’t returned. I could speak again without constant water breaks, and even regained some taste.This treatment changed everything. I truly believe it saved my life.

"She really understood what I was going through"
Anna’s experience as an oncology nurse meant she really understood what I was going through.
Having her expertise meant such a lot in terms of both my engagement with the treatment but the overall experience.

"The effect was immediate."
After radiotherapy for breast cancer, I began acupuncture with Anna for fatigue and hot flushes. I was amazed by the improvement - not just in those areas, but in my long Covid fatigue too. The effect was immediate. Anna listens carefully and brings so much care and experience.
I highly recommend her.

"Anna has been brilliant, kind, caring and thoughtful"
Having Acupuncture has been a very positive experience for me. My symptoms have improved so very much. Anna has been brilliant, kind, caring and thoughtful.
I can’t thank her enough.
BD
"My pain has eased"
I saw Anna for hip and lower back pain, I was taking so many pain medications and it was affecting my everyday life. After a set of sessions my pain has eased and I was able to return to yoga and walking which has hugely helped my mental health.
I would definitely recommend.

"Each session left me feeling calmer"
I never imagined how much acupuncture could help me through chemotherapy. Each session left me feeling calmer and more in control of my symptoms.
The care I received from Anna was gentle, thoughtful, and always focused on what I needed most that session.
