Acupuncture is used by many people for a wide range of physical and emotional concerns. At Green Rose Acupuncture, I commonly support people experiencing:
Every treatment is tailored to you as an individual, rather than simply focusing on your symptoms.
Five Element Acupuncture is a traditional style of acupuncture that looks beyond physical symptoms to treat the whole person. It considers the connection between your body, mind and emotions, aiming to restore balance at a deeper level.
Many people choose Five Element Acupuncture because they want to understand why they feel the way they do, not just relieve individual symptoms.
Many people choose acupuncture to support them on their fertility journey, whether they're trying to conceive naturally or undergoing assisted fertility treatment such as IVF.
Acupuncture may help by supporting your overall wellbeing, reducing stress and promoting relaxation. Some research also suggests it may have positive effects on blood flow and hormonal regulation, although more high-quality research is needed.
Treatment is always tailored to you as an individual and can be used alongside conventional fertility care. My aim is to support your physical and emotional wellbeing throughout your journey, wherever you are on the path to parenthood.
Most people are pleasantly surprised by how gentle acupuncture feels.
The needles are extremely fine—much thinner than those used for injections. You may feel a slight sensation as a needle is inserted, followed by feelings such as warmth, heaviness, tingling or deep relaxation.
Many patients even fall asleep during treatment.
Your initial appointment lasts around 60-90 minutes.
We'll begin with a detailed conversation about your health, lifestyle and medical history. This allows me to understand the bigger picture and create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you.
Your first acupuncture treatment is usually included within this appointment.
This depends on your individual circumstances, your health goals and how long you've been experiencing your symptoms.
Some people notice changes after just a few sessions, while longer-term or more complex conditions often benefit from a course of treatment.
After your first appointment, I'll recommend a personalised treatment plan.
Loose, comfortable clothing is ideal.
Many acupuncture points are located on the arms and lower legs, so clothing that can easily be rolled up is helpful.
Yes. Acupuncture is considered very safe when carried out by a fully qualified practitioner using sterile, single-use needles.
I am fully qualified and a member of the British Acupuncture Council, which sets high standards of professional practice, hygiene and ongoing training.
In many cases, yes.
Acupuncture is commonly used alongside NHS or private medical care. Please continue taking any prescribed medication unless advised otherwise by your GP or consultant.
If you're receiving treatment for a medical condition, it's helpful to let me know so we can work safely together.
Acupuncture can often be used safely during pregnancy when provided by a suitably trained practitioner.
If you're pregnant or think you may be pregnant, please let me know when booking so your treatment can be planned appropriately.

Absolutely.
