Welcome

Acupuncture aims to facilitate self-healing, and there is growing evidence that it helps in a wide range of conditions.
I have been practising for over 26 years and have been working in Edinburgh for the past 16 as an Edinburgh acupuncturist. I see a range of complaints and problems, for instance, chronic back pain and support for fertility treatment. My focus is on the whole person, so symptoms and signs are all taken into account. This is especially useful if an individual has more than one problem; but more importantly, it is about people feeling better in themselves in ways that are sometimes hard to define. Wellness is more than the absence of illness.
People who have help with things like back pain often report improvement in other ways too.
Acupuncture is a very safe intervention. It is not understood entirely how it works, but evidence is growing in different fields of science. On the 'Research' and 'Blog' pages I hope to draw attention to and comment on new pieces of research and evidence as they emerge.
