Little clinic.

Sharp heel pain first thing in the morning or after long rest. We release the local fascia with needling and warm the tight calf chain — most patients are walking pain-free within 3–5 sessions.

Adhesive capsulitis — a stiff, restricted shoulder that worsens at night. Acupuncture combined with careful range-of-motion work over 6–10 sessions typically restores most movement.

Whether from posture, injury, or stress-held tension, we treat both the local muscle and the underlying meridian. Herbal formulas support recovery when pain is chronic.

Nerve referral pain down the leg, often from lumbar or piriformis compression. We work the path of the channel from hip to foot — sharp shooting pain usually eases within the first few visits.

Regular acupuncture — often twice weekly — combined with herbal formulas supports motor recovery, speech, and swallowing. Best begun as early as the medical team permits.

We work alongside your GP and medications, not in place of them. Korean herbal formulas help stabilise readings, ease side-effects, and address the underlying pattern — we never advise stopping prescribed medicines.

Hot flushes, night sweats, mood shifts, and sleep disruption all respond well to constitutional formulas and acupuncture. Most patients feel a shift within 2–3 weeks of starting herbs.

Reflux, bloating, IBS-type presentations, and chronic indigestion. Traditional Korean medicine treats digestion as the root of energy — correcting it often resolves fatigue and sleep issues in parallel.

Post-viral, burnout-related, or unexplained exhaustion. We look at digestion, sleep, and emotional load together and build up strength gently — too fast a tonic can worsen things.

Difficulty falling asleep, early waking, or waking through the night all point to different patterns. Treatment is pattern-specific and often shows first results within a week.

Racing heart, shallow breath, a sense of dread. Acupuncture settles the autonomic system within minutes; herbs work over weeks on the underlying pattern. Many patients feel meaningfully calmer after the first session.

We see depression as stagnation — of qi, of blood, of feeling. Weekly acupuncture paired with herbs that move and nourish supports movement through it. We work alongside your GP or therapist, never in place of them.

The body after too much — too long. Recovery is slow and deliberate: deep rest, digestion-support herbs, and gentle acupuncture. Pushing fast is what got you here; we won't repeat it.

Different patterns call for different treatment — a heart-pattern insomnia is not a liver-pattern insomnia. We match the formula to the pattern; most patients sleep noticeably better inside 7–10 days.

When stress shows up as skin flares, headaches, digestive collapse, or immune issues, treating the downstream symptom alone won't hold. We treat the upstream pattern — acupuncture and herbs that move held tension.

Painful, irregular, heavy, or absent cycles — each a different pattern in Korean medicine. Most respond within 2–3 cycles of consistent herbs paired with acupuncture around the window of ovulation and menses.

Preconception preparation, cycle regulation, or IVF-adjunct support. We work from 3–6 months out where possible — earlier starts give the body time to settle before conception.

Benign prostatic hyperplasia, chronic prostatitis, and urinary frequency. Herbs and acupuncture reduce inflammation and ease flow — typically a 4–8 week course alongside your urologist's guidance.

Thyroid dysregulation, adrenal fatigue patterns, post-pill imbalance. Classical formulas gently re-regulate endocrine rhythm; we coordinate with your specialist where medications are in play.
