Special Fee Packages

Big Savings with special package deals. Acupuncture and herbal medicine have a profound and lasting impact on our health! This is due to the fact that this medicine works at the "root" of the problems, healing from the inside out, for the long term. This natural approach is subtle and powerful at the same time. This is why acupuncture is usually not a "quick fix". The longer the body is out of balance (as in, long term illness like diabetes, hormonal disorders, fatigue or gynaecological problems) the longer it takes to re-balance it. That is why we offer the following packages:

4 visits: Book 4 additional visits after the original consultation visit - £125.

6 visits: Book 6 additional visits after the original consultation visit - £175.

Gift vouchers for special occasions! Buy yourself or a loved one a treatment visit! This thoughtful gift is only £48.

All major debit and credit cards are accepted.

(These package deals do not include testing or smoking cessation programmes.)
