Hi! My name is Laura.
Welcome to Laura The Acupuncturist, where your reproductive health is supported with expert care, compassion, and holistic treatments. I specialise in fertility and reproductive health, using acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine to help support you in reaching your goal. Whether you’re looking to conceive, preparing for IVF, or managing reproductive health issues, the TCM approach aims to create balance and support you on your unique journey.
I work with individuals and couples to improve fertility outcomes, using evidence-based protocols for natural conception or assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. During your comprehensive initial consultation, we will assess your diet, lifestyle, and environment to provide personalised recommendations, including any necessary medical testing. As a medical phlebotomist, I can arrange blood work privately or guide you on accessing relevant tests through the NHS.
With over a decade of experience, I am committed to supporting those facing fertility and reproductive challenges. I hold a BSc Honours in Acupuncture and an MSc in Chinese Herbal Medicine, am a member of their respective regulatory bodies and I am working on my advanced diploma in fertility support. I have also conducted research on Chinese herbal medicine’s impact on male-factor fertility, ensuring my practice is grounded in both tradition and modern fertility science.

A quick note on clinic communication 💛
To ensure I can provide the best possible care to my patients, I keep all clinic communication structured and consistent.
✨ Email is the only monitored and reliable way to contact me.
This allows me to respond thoughtfully and within appropriate timeframes.
During clinic hours, I am with patients and give them my full, uninterrupted attention — which means calls, texts, and WhatsApp messages are not monitored.
You can expect:
• A response within 1 working day via email
• Clear pricing, availability and booking system via website
• Dedicated time during your appointment to discuss your health in detail
Please note:
I’m unable to provide individualised health advice, test interpretation, or recommendations outside of a booked consultation.
This ensures that all advice is safe, appropriate, and tailored to you — which can only be done properly within a clinical setting.
If you’d like support, you’re very welcome to book an appointment online:

Thank you for respecting these boundaries — they allow me to show up fully for every patient I work with 💛

The youngest member of the family (currently) has been roped in as my social media model… and I think he loves the inconvenience of ‘having’ to get acupuncture, cupping or massage (from @masgtherapy ).
Cupping is a traditional technique used in Chinese medicine to help improve circulation, release muscle tension, support detoxification, and promote overall healing. It’s especially great for tight backs, stubborn knots, and that “heavy” feeling you sometimes can’t quite shift.
In this video, I’m using fire cupping with bamboo cups I picked up while training in China. I also use glass, suction, and silicone cups depending on what your body needs from the treatment.
And yes… some people definitely just come for the marks. But they leave for all of the benefits too.
If you’re curious or want to try it for yourself, you can add 10 minutes of cupping onto your acupuncture session for an extra £10.
