About me
I started studying acupuncture after a trip to Sri Lanka. I was dong relief work there after the tsunami and I met an acupuncturist who really helped me when nothing else did. This practitioner inspired me to read further into the practice and soon after I began studying. Since then, acupuncture has been an essential part of my life.
My professional experience is diverse and includes work within a charity at a clinic in Sri Lanka and as the contracted acupuncturist on two luxury cruise liners. It was there that my interest in acupuncture for fertility began as during that time I helped one of the staff members get pregnant when she was told by doctors that she would never be able to have children. I have also worked and studied in three hospitals in Beijing where I learnt advanced acupuncture and worked treating patients alongside the acupuncturists in gynaecology wards.
I have taken my acupuncture around Central America, South America and Canada treating all sorts of ailments. After returning to the UK I set up a clinic in Newquay, Cornwall in a hotel before progressing to running my own clinic with three treatment rooms. I now focus and pride myself on running an evidence based and holistic approach to fertility, offering much needed support for those trying to conceive.

“ I was lucky enough to be recommended to Nat and started having sessions focusing on fertility with her from around autumn 2023. From the offset, Nat was kind, caring, understanding and made me feel extremely at ease.
Her laid back, non judgemental attitude was key in being able to share my sensitive history of multiple early pregnancy losses. Her knowledge and support has been second to none. I can honestly say, hand on my heart, I don’t think I would be just about to give birth to my first baby without her help. Nat helped me reduce my monthly bleed from 7 days to consistently being ¾ days with less pain. Nat has a mountain of wisdom when it comes to acupuncture but also advice on other options which helped support our fertility journey.
My partner also started seeing Nat and has helped him with fertility too. Both of our appreciation for Nat and her work will last for the rest of time, we couldn’t recommend her services more! ”
