About Christina

ChristinaMy  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. 

I am a fully qualified and licensed Acupuncturist based at my clinic in Maidenhead.  I am also a fully insured member of the BAcC (British Acupuncture Council), which is the UK’s largest professional governing body for the practice of Acupuncture in the UK. 

Training & Qualifications

I trained at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine in Reading, where I studied both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element acupuncture, completing a  3 year degree program, affiliated with Kingston University.  

I graduated in 2016 with a 

  • BSc(Hons) in Acupuncture,
  • Licentiate in Acupuncture (Lic Ac). 

I have continued to update my professional knowledge and skills through further studies in -

  • Post graduate Diploma in Gynaecology, Fertility and Obstetric 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.
