About Me


Hello! :)

My name is Jane and I’m a fully qualified acupuncturist based in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. I'm a member of the Association of Acupuncture Clinicians (AAC), the Association of Community and Multibed Acupuncture Clinics (ACMAC) and the British Acupuncture Federation (BAF).

Following successful acupuncture treatments in 2016, I followed up my growing interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) by enrolling on the BSc Acupuncture degree at the Northern College of Acupuncture (NCA) in York where I graduated with honours in 2022.

What to Expect at Your First Acupuncture Appointment

16/11/25 What to Expect at Your First Acupuncture Appointment If you’ve never tried acupuncture before, you might be wondering what your first appointment will be like.

  Acupuncture for Insomnia: A Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective Sleep is one of the foundations of health. When it is restful and consistent, it restores the body, calms the mind, and helps us meet each day with clarity and resilience. But when sleep is disrupted, everything else can feel harder. Insomnia is one of the most common issues people face today, and it takes many forms: difficulty falling asleep, waking frequently through the night, early morning waking, or restless sleep that doesn’t feel refreshing. Modern life—with its screens, stress, and irregular routines—certainly plays a role. But insomnia has been recognised and treated in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of years. Acupuncture, herbal medicine, and lifestyle guidance all offer effective, natural ways to support healthy sleep. In this post, we’ll explore how TCM understands insomnia, the different “patterns” that can cause it, and how acupuncture works to restore balance. We’ll also s...
