Your acupuncture session is always accompanied by auriculotherapy — a complementary ear-point technique that deepens and extends the benefits of each treatment. Sandra begins with a thorough consultation, observes tongue and pulse, then places fine sterile needles at the precise points your body needs that day.

Pregnancy acupuncture is tailored to how you are feeling and the stage of pregnancy you are in. Treatment may be used alongside your usual maternity care for morning sickness, relaxation and support as you prepare for labour, as well as during the weeks after birth. Each session begins with time to talk through how you have been feeling before fine sterile needles are placed at carefully selected points. Treatment is always adapted to you and works alongside the care of your midwife or obstetrician.

Posted on Google Hira SamiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After searching for a long time , I finally found Sandra and I can’t recommend Sandra highly enough. After going through a very difficult period emotionally, mentally and financially, I struggled to find an acupuncturist who made me feel truly heard. Many places felt rushed and impersonal but Sandra was completely different. From my very first appointment, she listened with genuine care, empathy, and kindness. I never felt like just another patient. She took the time to understand what I was going through and created a calm, supportive environment where I felt safe. Her acupuncture sessions have helped me in ways that go beyond the physical. Over time, I’ve felt calmer, more balanced, and more like myself again. For the first time in a long while, I feel like I’m finding my way back home. Sandra is not only highly skilled but also deeply compassionate. If you’re looking for someone who truly listens and cares about your wellbeing, I wholeheartedly recommend her. Thank you, Sandra, for treating me with such kindness and respect when I needed it most. Your care has made a lasting difference in my life.Posted on Google Danny ClearyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I arrived with Sandra I had been struggling with golfers elbow and only able to play 2 rounds in 6 months, after only 2 visits I am now ready to return this week. I have absolutley no pain whatsoever. The treatment has been just fantastic and I am delighted and very grateful to Sandra.Posted on Google Bianca RussellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been going to Sandra for a while now with various injuries and pains that I’ve had. The treatment offered is all in one session and can include acupuncture, cupping and gua sha. This is unlike most other places where you pay for one specific type of treatment. Sandra is knowledgeable and really helpful in getting to the root cause of the issue.Posted on Google Amy FitzgeraldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Sandra for the last year or so and I cannot stress how transformative her treatment has been! I have been training for half marathons throughout this time and she has made all the difference. Removing tension and speeding up recovery massively. My training runs post treatment are always faster, easier and much more enjoyable. I do t know what she does but it’s magic! I can’t recommend it enough. She’s so knowledgeable and I always leave each session feeling good with a new recommendation or helpful tip. She’s amazing!Posted on Google Yana NevedeshevaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been doing acupuncture with Sandra for 3 months now and she's been beyond amazing for relieving my PCOS and PMDD symptoms. Sandra is highly knowledgable, trustworthy and experienced, and has made me feel very comfortable! The studio has a nice and relaxing atmosphere! Highly recommend!Posted on Google darren bladesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Received a treatment from Sandra, to help with my tennis and golfers elbow , which has now completely gone . I’m really happy with the result and would highly recommend her professional services . Best regards Darren from ManchesterPosted on Google Jacqueline EspinozaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son (6 year old) had been struggling with recurrent acute tonsillitis, and doctors were already considering a tonsil removal surgery. We decided to try acupuncture with Sandra, and it was honestly the best decision we could have made. From the very first sessions, we noticed an incredible improvement — less inflammation, more energy, and no more fever. His immune system is much stronger now, and best of all, we’ve completely avoided the surgery. Sandra is kind, patient, and truly caring, and she immediately made my son feel comfortable and safe. I can’t recommend her enough — her work has made a real difference in his health and wellbeing.Posted on Google SmeatrickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sandra is a magician using a combination of acupuncture, cupping and diet advise she has been my saviour for my gout, wellbeing and recovery….. thank you so much!Posted on Google Ruzina BegumTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Sandra! I’ve struggled with constant stomach issues for as long as I can remember, but after just 4–5 sessions with Sandra, they’ve completely disappeared! I was also dealing with hormonal imbalances and a range of other health concerns, and for the first time, I truly feel like I’m on a path to healing. I’ve had painful periods for 16 years, and for the first time ever, I was able to go through a cycle without discomfort—I felt completely normal and could carry on with my daily activities. It’s honestly life-changing. Sandra is not only incredibly skilled but also such a kind and genuine person who truly cares about helping her clients. I can’t thank her enough, and I highly, highly recommend her to anyone seeking real healing.
