We offer acupuncture sessions with Melvin Timm

Acupuncture is perhaps best known for relief of chronic pain, for which it is even recommended by the NHS . The NHS also recommends acupuncture for chronic tension headaches, migraines, prostatitis and hiccups.

But acupuncture can be used for a much wider range of physical and also emotional or mental health issues. Needling is used to influence the movement of energy (or ‘qi’) through the channels (or meridians) in which it flows through the body. Rebalancing this energy is a powerful way to improve health.

Melvin’s acupuncture incorporates different styles, which enables him to suit his treatment to the client. He was originally trained in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine – a Chinese Communist invention) at college, and has gone on to study a range of other approaches. He adapts his needling technique to suit the client – some like it heavy and others much lighter. 

Melvin charges £35 per session.
