Francesca is a Traditional Chinese Acupuncturist. Her interest in Chinese Medicine began years ago, when she received Acupuncture herself. The idea of treating the mind, body and spiritual well-being of a person made complete sense to her. Francesca considers acupuncture a valuable, exciting and wonderful method of healthcare.

She trained as an Acupuncturist for four years at the Northern College of Acupuncture. She is also a Person-Centred Counsellor, and is an accredited member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy.  Her practice as a Counsellor complements her work as an Acupuncturist. Whilst she practises both separately, she believes that they also inform and reinforce each other. Within her work as an Acupuncturist she integrates aspects of counselling and believes it is important to offer a safe space of acceptance where the client can freely explore any emotional or physical issues. Having skills which help clients work with both the physical and emotional aspects of their health and well-being provides a rich and holistic way of working with people.

Francesca works with a range of issues including:

  • allergies
  • anxiety/depression
  • arthritis
  • asthma
  • back pain
  • Chronic Pain
  • digestive problems.
  • grief
  • gynaecological problems
  • headaches/migraine
  • infertility
  • menopause
  • stress
  • Autoimmune
