The Cotswolds Acupuncturist

Located on the outskirts of the town of Charlbury, The Cotswolds Acupuncturist is a small clinic within the Cornbury Estate park.  This is a clinic rooted in Classical Chinese Medicine, practised from the lineage of Jeffrey Yuen, one of the most respected living transmitters of the Daoist acupuncture traditions.  That foundation shapes a lot here: how a case is understood, how a treatment is built, and why the medicine works the way it does.  

​

At the same time, this is a clinic that takes modern research very seriously.  The most current research in reproductive health, endocrinology, pain science and physiology sits alongside classical theory, rather than in opposition to it.  East meets West here as a clinical approach, not just a cute marketing phrase.

​​

The clinic's primary focus is reproductive health, which expands to include everything from menstrual health, hormonal balance, fertility, pregnancy, IVF support, and the many conditions that sit within this landscape.  

​

Alongside that, there is a deep love for working with pain and movement, for the straightforward, often remarkable way the body responds to acupuncture when given the right conditions. 

​

Perhaps most importantly, this is a clinic that believes that healthcare should put the patient at the centre.  Acupuncture is not a one-pill-and-walk-away solution.  It is a medicine that asks something of both practitioner and patient: consistency, attention, and a willingness to be your own advocate for your health.  The goal is always to educate, to give each patient the tools and the knowledge to become autonomous in their own bodies. Lasting change takes time and engaged care, and that is something that's worth being honest about from the get-go!
