Services
Acupuncture
Medical acupuncture treatments address chronic pain, migraines, and musculoskeletal conditions. Our practitioners use sterile needles to stimulate specific points, promoting natural healing and pain relief. Patients receive individualised sessions tailored to their specific health needs.
Herbal Medicine
Custom herbal formulations treat various conditions from fertility issues to digestive disorders. We provide concentrated granules, tinctures, and topical applications, all sourced from premium ingredients. Treatments combine traditional knowledge with modern research for optimal effectiveness.
Fertility Treatments
Specialist acupuncture and herbal programmes support conception through hormonal balance and reproductive system regulation. We work alongside IVF clinics to enhance treatment success rates, offering tailored protocols for both male and female fertility challenges.
Cupping Therapy
Traditional cupping techniques relieve muscle tension and improve circulation. Glass cups create gentle suction to release tightness in back, neck, and shoulder areas. This therapy complements acupuncture for musculoskeletal pain management.
Tuina Massage
Chinese medical massage targets specific acupoints to alleviate pain and improve energy flow. Practitioners use rhythmic compression techniques to treat musculoskeletal issues and internal organ imbalances, promoting overall wellness.

Disappointed to be charged 140 for my first hours session after being quoted 75 (which is already much higher than other places Ive been). Would not recommend and would not go back.

I have a cough some years that lasts for months. The Surgery gave me antibiotics which did nothing. With the covid thing now coughing is very embarrassing. As soon as I could, I visited Jenny and in a few visits she got rid of it. My general health is better and I feel better able to cope with the stress of teaching online 6 hours a day. Thanks again.

In March I had a pain in my shoulder, after going to the doctors,all they gave me was tablets. Two weeks ago the pain became unbearable, I went to the Imperial herbal clinic for acupuncture. After two sessions I am pain free and have the full use back in my right arm. Jenny is fantastic. Thank you x

I visited Jenny to see if she could do anything about my psoriasis which I have suffered from for many years. It is often triggered by stress. The treatment consisted of a detailed consultation followed by several (maybe 10 or 12) acupuncture sessions, herbs that I took at home and some topical cream. My psoriasis improved almost straight away and has now pretty much gone which I am delighted about.
Also I am in no doubt that the acupuncture improved my sense of wellbeing which in turn affected my stress level. I would recommend seeing Jenny if you want a traditional treatment to a condition that
