Acupuncture - The Natural Pathway to Healing
As people seek alternatives to conventional medicine, Acupuncture emerges as a powerful yet often underestimated healing approach. Its versatility and effectiveness in addressing root causes—such as inflammation, organ dysfunction, lack of resources, and tissues damage—makes it a valuable option for those looking to reduce dependence on pharmaceuticals.
By reducing inflammation and providing the appropriate resources, Acupuncture offers a natural healing process to chronic conditions and inflammatory diseases that are increasingly common nowadays. With its non-invasive and non-toxic nature, Acupuncture promotes natural healing, restoring balance and harmony to the body and providing support for gastrointestinal problems, fertility issues, migraines and headaches, constipations, sensory issues and so forth. It also helps at musculoskeletal level, by resolving the blockages causing pain and discomfort.
Ways Acupuncture Can Help You
Restore vitality
When Qi moves freely and harmoniously, the body’s organ systems operate efficiently, supporting overall well-being. This leads to greater vitality and a steady supply of energy throughout the day providing relief to fatigue, dizziness, insomnia, constipation, bloating, foggy mind and so on.
Pain relief
Pain results from the depletion or obstruction of vital substances such as Qi, Blood, and Body Fluids, often caused by internal dysfunction or external trauma. Acupuncture enhances circulation, promotes tissue repair, and addresses these imbalances at their root. Studies have also shown its effectiveness in accelerating bone healing, offering a valuable integrative approach to recovery.
Emotional well-being and resilience
When sleep is restful, digestion smooth, and focus sharp, life feels more manageable. Enhancing these daily functions not only boosts physical health but also cultivates mental clarity and resilience, allowing us to navigate challenges with greater ease
Health in your hands
Beyond clinical care, personalised nutritional and lifestyle guidance equips you with the tools to support your health independently. Actively participating in your healing process enhances self-awareness, promotes informed decision-making, and cultivates long-term well-being through mindful daily habits.
You're in Safe Hands
By being fully present, I can connect with their concerns and help them navigate any fears or blockages they may have. Many find comfort in the warm, non-judgmental environment I offer, allowing them to relax and open up to the treatment.

STEP 1: SCHEDULE YOUR APPOINTMENT
Booking an acupuncture session is quick and easy. Simply send me an email via the contact form, mentioning your preferred clinic and time for your visit. I’ll reply with the available slots to confirm your appointment.
STEP 2: PREPARATION FOR YOUR FIRST SESSION
To ensure an accurate pulse reading, please avoid drinking coffee just before your appointment. Once we confirm your appointment, you’ll receive an email with all the details, including instructions and payment information for securing your spot. Please note that I have a 24-hour cancellation policy.
If possible, arrive a few minutes early to allow yourself time to settle and relax before entering the treatment room.
STEP 3: ENJOY YOUR ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT
This is your time to unwind and bring attention to yourself. Step away from daily stresses, leave work and life concerns outside the treatment room, and fully embrace the present moment in deep connection with your body and mind.
Commonly Asked Questions
Chinese medicine works quite well for both. Usually acute conditions resolve much quicker whereas chronic ones require more sessions and spread over a longer period of time.
When acute, the ailment is generally due to external factors (either atmospheric or trauma) and the treatment is mostly focused on the affected tissues. If the acute symptom is the outcome of an internal imbalance which might have been lingering for a longer period undetected, the treatment will also look at the main internal organs and might require more sessions.
‘Chronic conditions’ means that they have been going on for a long period (stated as more than 6 weeks) during which more aspects have been progressively involved along the way. The autoimmune conditions fall under this category too. In these cases, treating the root cause might not be as straight forward and some actions are needed in order to unravel a complex presentation.
Chinese Medicine encompasses different types of therapy, so clients should always ensure their therapist is qualified to perform their prescribed treatment in order to minimise the risk of malpractice. Some may think that using needles can present some risk linked to hygiene, but this risk is minimised by using disposable needles from sterile packages. Clients are informed that some bruising may appear if the needle hits a blood vessel, but this is generally superficial and doesn’t last long. It is crucial that the client informs the therapist of any allergic reaction to metals, in which case golden needles will be used instead. Their medical history is also an important part of the initial consultation which clarifies the cautions to be taken during the treatment.
Usually clients are booked in for 60 minutes but at the first appointment I encourage them to book for 90 minutes so we have more time towards the consultation. Follow-ups can easily last 60 minutes but some clients prefer having longer sessions that they can then spread more apart, depending on the nature of their condition.
To insert the needles, I need to work on the naked surface of the body. It is also very important that I can see and palpate the area affected or the relevant channels, this usually means that I can either need access to your legs, arms, back or abdomen. I usually advice to wear comfortable, loose clothing and many clients wear shorts to make them feel more comfortable.
Viewed holistically, any medication is part of the client’s wholeness, I always ask my clients what medication they are on in order to understand what effect (and side effects) they are experiencing but I would never ask them to stop their existing medication. Clients should always ensure that their therapist is informed of any existing medications, or significant ones they have taken in the past.
Yes of course and know that it can also help you in case the flow is not even or you are experiencing any form of congestion or discomfort.
This cannot be generalised as it really depends on the issue to be treated and the clients’ circumstances. Sometimes closer sessions are advised when working with the momentum, whereas some other times I advise to let the treatment to unfold over a longer period of time.
Back in the old times medicine was used as a prevention and people would get treated on regular basis in order to prevent more serious illnesses. Nowadays this is not really doable for many reasons but a regular ‘top-up’ every two-three months would be beneficial. In the meantime, keeping and eye on diet, life style and exercise is what I highly recommend as a form of maintenance and prevention. In this regard, I offer remote health coaching to those who struggle to keep up with the home work.
After a session nothing prevents you from going straight to work or into any other activity, but it would be good to give yourself some time by the end of the day to just relax and take it easy because after all a treatment requires a certain investment of energy.
I often advice a nice warm bath with salts, especially when part of the treatment was meant to promote relaxation of the tissues or of the mind.

Patrizia is an incredibly beautiful person and an exceptional therapist. Everything she does comes from a place of kindness and care. She has extensive knowledge of Chinese medicine and always knows exactly what to do. I always feel calm and at peace after our sessions.
I’ve been seeing her weekly for the past few months, and I can honestly say that the difference she is making in my emotional and physical wellbeing is profound. I always look forward to my sessions with her. I highly recommend Patrizia—she is truly amazing

I started working with Patrizia after dealing with stomach and digestive issues and no clear diagnosis from my GP. Over the course of our sessions my symptoms varied greatly and I went through a lot of ups and downs physically and mentally.Patrizia creates an incredibly calm and open space and no matter how I arrived she always met me where I was and adjusted her treatment plans according to what was happening for me.
Having someone truly listen to what is going on and looking at your health holistically makes such a difference and with her help I am now so much more connected to my body, I stopped worrying too much and I feel like I’m in charge of my health.During our time together I learned a lot about my body and this knowledge and awareness are what open up new options and provide more clarity in how I can move forward. How much can be achieved without medication and by purely adjusting some habits and diet has been a revelation and with Patrizia’s guidance and support I’ve been able to vastly improve my symptoms and slowly heal my body.

Patrizia is an incredible therapist.
She is kind, comforting and very effective.
I was in the most incredible pain and unable to sit down or move with my low back, hip and front thigh. Patrizia treated me both in clinic and remotely, clearing the pain which I had for over two weeks in two sessions.
Lecia Finch
I started to see Patrizia in August with symptoms of Chronic Spontaneous Idiopathic Urticaria that I had had for nearly 1 year. After having no success with primary care & Dermatology – I was completely miserable & at my wits end. I had read some clinical studies online to suggest that acupuncture can promote relief & recovery from these symptoms so I thought I would give it a go. I immediately warmed to Patrizia & felt comfortable with her due to her friendly & non-judgemental personality. I was very impressed by how knowledgeable she was about her practice & how the body works. I felt near immediate relief from my symptoms after just one session, & will continue to go. I never felt pressured to make purchases or book more sessions in. Patrizia also looks at your health holistically & makes suggestions for things you can try outside of sessions. I have recommended Patrizia to a friend who was also extremely impressed by her. It seems she can help with a lot of different health conditions or issues. I look forward to my sessions with Patrizia & feel extremely calm & well looked after in her presence. Thank you so much!
