About me

Hi, I’m Melissa and I can hardly believe that I have been practising the wonders of acupuncture in the Cotswolds for just over 20 years! Initially in a GP surgery and then onto having my own wonderful treatment room (with heated couch!)

Over the last few years, I have found a particular love and draw towards supporting patients on their fertility journey and then often continuing through their pregnancy. I have taken extensive further training in this area and am passionate about providing not only knowledge about how Chinese Medicine can help them, but also advice as to what tests and scans may be necessary and I work closely with other recommended health professionals, when necessary, for example, functional nutritionists who specialise in fertility and herbalists. Some patients call me ‘the fertility detective’!

I have great empathy for patients going through this challenging time as I also had acupuncture to support me through IVF which I am so grateful was successful. I like to provide an environment that is not only physically comfortable but also a space where there is time to be heard and treated on an emotional level too.

Experience

My experience and qualifications include:

  • I studied at The College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, Reading to gain my LicAc
  • I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council – the largest professional body for traditional acupuncturists.
  • I have completed fertility training with Naava Carmen, Janet Glover, Hannah Pearn and Rachel Sherriff.
  • I am currently studying the Advanced level Diploma in Fertility Acupuncture.
  • I am a member of the Acupuncture Fertility Network, who are a professional group of acupuncturists specialising in fertility care across the UK.
” Without the warm, caring and marvellous Melissa, acupuncture would not be the same. I feel like my body is healed every single time I have a session. Melissa is not only an acupuncturist but someone who genuinely inspires me and is just like a therapist and a good friend healing my mind and my body. I’m now 7 months pregnant after working with Melissa after suffering recurrent miscarriage. Her patience, listening and magical healing is the best I’ve ever come across! Thank you Melissa. ”
