What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a time-tested form of holistic medicine that has been used for thousands of years. It involves the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow — known as Qi (pronounced “chee”) — and restore balance.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, when the flow of Qi is disrupted by stress, illness, injury or emotional imbalance, we can experience pain, fatigue, or disease. Acupuncture works to restore that natural flow, supporting the body and mind to return to harmony.
Modern science also recognises acupuncture’s effects on the nervous system, circulation, and endorphin release — helping with everything from back pain and migraines to anxiety, digestive issues, and sleep problems.

She has a particular interest in women’s health, hormonal balance, and digestive issues, and offers a calm, supportive space for clients navigating fertility journeys or managing chronic stress.

Liz Lanphier — Five Element Acupuncture
Liz offers Five Element Acupuncture, a deeply reflective and person-centred form of treatment that works on the emotional and energetic roots of illness. She sees each client as a whole — body, mind, and spirit — and supports them to restore balance and harmony at all levels.
Clients often describe Liz’s treatments as transformative, helping them access greater clarity, emotional resilience, and a renewed sense of purpose. Her approach is especially effective for those managing anxiety, emotional burnout, or long-term fatigue.
Specialisms: Anxiety, emotional health, trauma recovery, chronic fatigue, personal development.
Lucy Stamp — Integrated Acupuncture: Eastern & Western Perspectives
Lucy brings a dynamic and integrative approach to acupuncture, drawing from both Traditional Chinese Medicine and modern anatomical knowledge.

Her treatments are ideal for those recovering from sports injuries, dealing with musculoskeletal tension, or experiencing migraine and postural imbalances. She combines acupuncture with manual techniques and tailored advice to support both short-term relief and long-term function.

What to Expect During a Session
- Initial Consultation: Your first session includes a detailed discussion of your health history, lifestyle, and goals for treatment.
- Treatment: Your therapist will gently insert ultra-fine needles at specific acupuncture points. Most clients find the process relaxing — some even fall asleep during treatment.
- Aftercare: Many people feel calm, grounded, or energised after a session. Your therapist may offer lifestyle or dietary advice based on your unique constitution.
