About Christina
My interest and passion for Acupuncture grew from having experienced great benefits personally, and a desire to learn more about Chinese Acupuncture & Medicine. As a TCM/Five Element Acupuncturist, I am deeply passionate about helping others to restore balance, harmony, and a sense of wellbeing in body, mind, and spirit through acupuncture.

Background
Before becoming a fully qualified TCM/Five-Element Acupuncturist, I trained with Body Control Pilates in London, where I qualified as a Level 3 Pilates teacher, in both matwork, and the pilates reformer machine.
My pilates background has given me a special interest in muscular-skeletal conditions, as well treating a wide range of conditions such as; anxiety; stress; insomnia; back/knee pain; women's gynaeacological health and facial acupuncture.
