Services
Acupuncture
Traditional acupuncture restores health by balancing the body's energy (Qi) through ultra-fine needles. It addresses chronic pain, mental health issues, and fertility concerns by stimulating natural healing processes. Clients report lasting relief from conditions like sciatica, depression, and migraines.
Sports Massage
Sports massage alleviates muscle tension and prevents injuries through targeted manipulation of soft tissues. Combining techniques like cupping and stretching, it enhances circulation and recovery for athletes and individuals with repetitive strain injuries. Regular sessions improve flexibility and reduce chronic pain.
Reiki
Reiki promotes relaxation and emotional balance by channeling universal energy through hands-on healing. It reduces stress, accelerates recovery from physical ailments, and clears energy blockages. Clients experience improved sleep, mental clarity, and emotional resilience during and after sessions.
EFT
EFT combines acupressure and psychology to address emotional trauma and stress-related conditions. By tapping on meridian points while focusing on specific issues, it reduces cortisol levels and reprograms negative thought patterns. Effective for anxiety, addictions, and performance enhancement.

Originally went to see Peter as I suffer with degenerative disc disorder, and suffer real pain in my neck & shoulders, I have had a series of massage and acupuncture and it has been amazing, The first session was enlightening and I felt like a cloud had been lifted, all follow on sessions were also great, tailoring the plan to my needs. We also explored other methods such as Gua sha, which again made a real difference to my overall feeling. Excellent experience from a very professional therapist.

I initially went to see Peter with a sore back and legs due to static cycling. He helped me a great deal with this and I am recovering from my training much quicker and significantly less aches and pains day to day. After a few sessions we discussed my allergies and sinus congestion, Peter's expertise in this has made a remarkable difference to me! I can taste everything for the first time in years. Peter is also very friendly and makes you feel completely at ease. I can't recommend GA&SMC highly enough!

Peter is very professional and quickly put me at ease.I had never had a massage or acupuncture before but would now fully encourage anyone to go ahead and try it the results for me have been amazing. Thank you Peter.

Peter is a life saver! I've suffered with back problems and muscle tightness for around 10 years now, booked an appointment after trapping a shoulder muscle whilst sleeping. Amazingly friendly yet professional service, always putting me completely at ease (I have fairly bad anxiety). I've just had my fourth session of sports massage (with cupping/gua sha when wanted) and have noticed not only my neck, shoulders, back and hips improve but also my sleep and mood! Thank you Peter!

I have had my second treatment of sports massage and acupuncture I can certainly recommend it. I hurt my back and arm and was in so much pain.
Peter explained everything in great detail and really put me at ease and was very professional. I had never had acupuncture before but I can certainly recommend it. Can't believe how more mobile I am and not having to take any pain relief. The sports massage has certainly released a lot of the tension. Thank you again Peter looking forward to my next round of treatment.
