Pain Management
A Practical, Evidence-Informed Approach to Pain Relief
Pain is rarely just a local issue. It’s influenced by the nervous system, inflammation, circulation, posture, movement patterns, stress, and how long the problem has been there. Acupuncture can help regulate this whole picture – reducing pain signals, easing muscle tension, and supporting recovery in a way that feels natural and grounded.
Rather than masking symptoms, I focus on identifying what’s driving the pain underneath. That might be an old injury that never fully resolved, ongoing overload on a joint or muscle group, nerve irritation, or a stress-related pattern that keeps the body stuck in protection mode. Treatment is always tailored to your specific presentation and goals.
Many people notice that as pain settles, sleep improves, movement becomes easier, and day-to-day energy returns. The aim is steady, measurable progress – a short course of treatment to create change, then tapering as your body stabilises.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
Acupuncture can support many types of pain – from long-term, stubborn conditions to newer injuries. If pain is limiting how you move, sleep, or function day to day, this approach may help.
Chronic Pain
Back or neck pain, arthritis, migraines, long-term tension, recurring flare-ups.
Joint & Muscle Pain
Sciatica, tendonitis, sports injuries, muscle strains, shoulder or knee pain.
Post-Surgical Recovery
Supporting circulation, reducing swelling, easing compensatory tension while healing.
Nerve Pain
Neuropathy, carpal tunnel, nerve irritation, fibromyalgia-type pain patterns.
What We offer
Mental Health
Supporting Mental and Emotional Wellbeing
Mental and emotional health are closely tied to the nervous system. When stress is high for long enough, the body stays in a protective state – sleep suffers, mood drops, focus disappears, and even small things feel harder than they should. Acupuncture can help regulate this response, easing the physical load that keeps anxiety and low mood stuck in place.
In clinic, I focus on what’s driving the pattern underneath: nervous system overactivation, poor recovery, hormonal strain, digestive imbalance, or prolonged emotional stress. Treatment is gentle, practical, and tailored to your specific presentation, with the aim of helping you feel steadier, clearer, and more like yourself again.
Many patients notice improvements in sleep, energy, and resilience first – which then creates space for mood and emotional stability to follow. This is not a replacement for appropriate medical care, but it can be a valuable support alongside it.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
Acupuncture may be helpful if you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or depleted, and want a grounded, body-based way to support emotional balance.
Anxiety & Stress
Persistent worry, panic symptoms, tight chest, racing thoughts, overload.
Low Mood and Depression
Emotional heaviness, low motivation, flat mood, mental fatigue.
Emotional Imbalance
Mood swings, irritability, feeling unsettled, difficulty regulating emotions.
Sleep & Nervous System Support
Insomnia, restless sleep, burnout, nervous exhaustion, poor recovery.
Sports Injury Recovery
Supporting Recovery and Peak Performance
Acupuncture can be a practical tool for both recovering from sports injuries and staying resilient under training load. By influencing circulation, muscle tone, and the nervous system, treatment helps reduce inflammation, ease pain, and support the body’s natural healing process.
Every plan is tailored to the injury and to how you train. Whether you’re dealing with a pulled muscle, tendon irritation, joint restriction, or overuse fatigue, the focus is to restore normal movement, reduce compensation patterns, and get you back to training safely.
Many athletes also use acupuncture as part of maintenance – supporting recovery between sessions, improving sleep and nervous system reset, and lowering the risk of repeat injury when workload increases.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
Whether you’re training regularly, competing, or simply trying to stay active without setbacks, acupuncture can help you recover well and perform consistently.
Common Sports Injuries
Sprains, strains, tendonitis, overuse injuries, and recurrent tightness.
Muscle & Joint Pain
Hamstring pulls, shoulder pain, knee issues, hip restriction, or lower back flare-ups.
Performance Recovery
Post-training fatigue, heavy legs, delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), slow recovery.
Prevention & Maintenance
Reducing injury risk, improving mobility, easing persistent tension, supporting training load.
Immune System Support
Strengthening Your Body’s Natural defences
When the immune system is under strain, it often shows up as recurring colds, slow recovery, lingering fatigue, or flare-ups tied to stress and poor sleep. Acupuncture can help by supporting nervous system regulation, circulation, and the body’s ability to recover – creating the conditions where resilience improves over time.
In clinic, I look at what’s contributing to the pattern underneath: chronic stress load, disrupted sleep, hormonal shifts, digestive imbalance, or post-viral fatigue. Treatment is tailored to your situation, with the aim of reducing reactivity and helping your system stabilise, especially during seasonal changes or demanding periods.
Many patients use acupuncture as part of a preventative strategy – not because it “forces” immunity, but because it helps the body function more smoothly and recover more reliably when life is busy, stressful, or physically draining.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
This may be helpful if you’re getting run down easily, recovering slowly, or dealing with recurring immune-related issues.
Frequent Illness
Recurring colds, low resilience, slow recovery after illness.
Chronic Fatigue & Burnout
Ongoing tiredness, low energy, post-viral fatigue, nervous exhaustion.
Seasonal Allergies
Hay fever, sinus issues, environmental sensitivities, inflammation flare-ups.
Autoimmune & Inflammation Support
Immune dysregulation, chronic inflammation patterns, supporting stability between flare-ups.
Digestive Health
Supporting Healthy Digestion, Naturally
Digestive symptoms rarely exist in isolation. They’re closely linked to stress load, sleep, nervous system regulation, inflammation, and how well the body is recovering overall. Acupuncture can help by calming the gut–brain connection, supporting motility, reducing tension and reactivity, and improving how the system functions day to day.
In clinic, I look at the full pattern behind your symptoms – not just the label. That may include stress-related gut activation, hormonal influence, food sensitivities, post-viral disruption, or long-standing irregularity. Treatment is tailored to your specific presentation with the aim of reducing flare-ups, easing discomfort, and helping digestion stabilise over time.
Many patients notice a gradual return of comfort and regularity – less bloating, fewer sudden swings, and better energy as the gut settles. The goal is steady improvement that lasts, not short-term symptom suppression.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
This approach may help if digestive issues are affecting your comfort, energy, or daily routine.
Bloating & Indigestion
Abdominal discomfort, fullness, reflux, nausea, sluggish digestion.
IBS & Irregularity

Stress-Related Digestive Issues
Nervous stomach, appetite disruption, tension-linked symptoms, flare-ups during stress.
Women’s Health
Natural Support for Every Stage of Womanhood
Women’s health symptoms are often shaped by more than one system at once – hormones, stress load, sleep, digestion, and nervous system regulation all interact. Acupuncture can support this whole picture, helping to ease symptoms now while improving balance and resilience over time.
In clinic, I take time to understand your cycle history, current symptoms, and how your body has been responding. Treatment is tailored to what you’re experiencing – whether that’s painful or irregular periods, fertility support, pregnancy-related symptoms, or the hormonal shifts of perimenopause and menopause. The aim is steady, measurable improvement that feels grounded and sustainable.
Many women notice improvements in cycle regularity, pain levels, sleep, mood stability, and energy as treatment progresses. This is not about pushing the body in one direction – it’s about helping it regulate more smoothly through each phase of life.
Who Can Benefit from This Treatment?
Acupuncture may help if hormonal or reproductive health symptoms are affecting your comfort, mood, energy, or quality of life.

Painful periods, irregular cycles, PMS/PMDD, heavy bleeding, hormonal imbalance.
