Today I delivered my first auricular acupuncture group session at Marie Curie Hospice in their Wellbeing Hub. A group of 7 people enjoyed the calming and relaxing treatment. The trial will run for 5 weeks.

Have you heard?

Low cost acupuncture has arrived in Penarth.

Known as Community Acupuncture (because it is delivered in a group setting), the treatment is very accessible regardless of underlying health conditions. Acupuncture points in the ears are used to balance the nervous system. It’s fantastic for treating anxiety and stress as well as hormonal balancing.

I was back at college today attending NADA protocol training. NADA was initially developed to aid relaxation and promote wellbeing in settings where people are supported with alcohol and drug misuse.

Now days it is also used for stress and anxiety management, trauma recovery, smoking sessation and helping patients with the side effects of cancer medications, among other things.

I’m hoping to set up a drop in clinic. Watch this space!
