I am a qualified Acupuncturist trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine, a certified Dr. Vodder Lymphatic Drainage practitioner (for non-medical conditions), and a facialist with over 15 years of experience practising across London’s most respected wellness spaces.

My approach combines the depth of Traditional Chinese Medicine with my background of other modalities, which then allows me to support both internal and external health concerns. Through acupuncture, I treat a wide range of issues, focusing on restoring balance, regulating the nervous system, and supporting the body’s natural healing processes. Alongside this, I offer Dr. Vodder manual lymphatic drainage to encourage optimal lymphatic flow and overall vitality. Dr. Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a gentle skin-stretch technique developed in Austria by Dr. Emil Vodder in the 1930s, stimulating the lymphatic system to reduce puffiness, improve circulation, and promote overall wellbeing for face and body.

My facial treatments are designed to be both deeply relaxing and visibly lifting. Incorporating sculpting massage, gua sha, and facial cupping, these rituals release tension, stimulate circulation, and enhance natural glow while supporting long-term skin health. Each treatment is thoughtfully tailored, blending therapeutic precision with restorative calm.

My journey into acupuncture began through my own health challenges, an experience that profoundly shaped the way I practise. It instilled in me a deep respect for the body’s innate intelligence and the importance of feeling truly supported in the healing process. 

As a registered member of the British Acupuncture Council, I uphold the highest standards of professional practice and safety. I am also able to accept patients through medical insurance providers where the British Acupuncture Council is recognised.

I am delighted to be part of the Maison Abbeville team and offer my treatments there on Sundays.

  • Each session begins with a face-to-face consultation, where I review your medical history, discuss your concerns, and explore relevant lifestyle and health factors. This ensures a fully personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs. The consultation is followed by a tailored acupuncture session, during which fine, sterile needles are applied and left in place for 20–40 minutes, depending on the patient and treatment goals.

    The session is designed to promote balance, support wellbeing, and enhance your body’s natural healing processes.

  • A follow-up appointment begins with a brief review of feedback from your previous session, along with any new symptoms or changes that may have occurred since your last visit. The main focus of the session is the treatment itself, with needles placed according to both the previous consultation and any new information shared during the follow-up. Treatments are personalised to each individual, taking into account relevant factors such as lifestyle, overall health, and—for female clients—where they are in their menstrual cycle.

    Needle retention times are typically 20–40 minutes, depending on the treatment goals and your individual response.

  • This signature treatment combines facial massage, gua sha, and facial cupping to release tension, boost circulation, and enhance natural radiance. Facial massage eases tightness in the face and neck, while gua sha and cupping lift, tone, reduce puffiness, and smooth fine lines. Together, these techniques stimulate collagen production, promote lymphatic flow, and support overall skin health. Each session is personalised to your needs, providing a deeply relaxing, restorative experience that rejuvenates both skin and mind.

    Perfect for improving tone, relieving tension, and indulging in holistic, results-driven facial wellness.

  • Description text goes hereYour first session begins with a consultation, where I review your lifestyle, health history, and specific areas of concern to assess your needs and design a fully personalised treatment. The session then focuses on gentle, rhythmic lymphatic drainage techniques applied to the neck, body, and face (if required). It’s important to note that this is not a massage or sculpting treatment. The treatment involves precise skin-stretch techniques to stimulate the body’s lymphatic system using the Dr Vodder method, supporting fluid movement, detoxification, and circulation.

    This treatment is especially effective for improving lymphatic flow, reducing puffiness, and aiding recovery post-surgery.

  • Follow-up appointments begin with a brief discussion of feedback from the previous session and any changes or new concerns. The treatment itself continues with targeted lymphatic drainage techniques, adapted based on your previous session and current needs. Sessions remain gentle, focusing on relaxation, lymphatic stimulation, and improving circulation.

    Each treatment is tailored to ensure maximum benefit, leaving you feeling lighter, relaxed, and refreshed.
