Hello, I’m Kim. I’m a qualified acupuncturist with a BSc (Hons) in Acupuncture from Leeds Metropolitan University. I graduated in 2010 after three years of study and practise using Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles to help support balance and wellbeing.
After qualifying, I worked in a busy clinic where I gained valuable experience treating a wide range of conditions. I then set up my own practice in Chester, Cheshire, where I saw some amazing results and helped people with issues such as back pain, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, headaches and fertility.
In 2015, I joined the acupuncture team at the Reproductive Health Group in Daresbury, Warrington. There, I provided treatments before and after embryo transfers which was a very rewarding part of my work.
I moved to Morpeth, Northumberland in 2016 and began rebuilding my clinic from home. After taking some time out to start my own family — I now have two lovely little girls — I returned to practice at Hair & Beauty Co in Morpeth, where I worked for two years.
I’m now really happy to be welcoming patients to my new clinic at Netherton Park Farm in Stannington. It’s a calm and welcoming space where I offer acupuncture treatments to support both physical and emotional wellbeing.
Before studying acupuncture, I completed a year of nursing and spent several years working as a senior care assistant in nursing, residential and dementia care. I also worked as a control room operator for Telecare at Northumberland County Council. These roles gave me a good understanding of Western medicine and a real appreciation for caring for people with warmth and compassion.
I’m originally from Alnwick in Northumberland and I’m delighted to now be settled locally, helping people feel their best through the benefits of acupuncture.
Please feel free to browse the website and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
I am a full member of the British Acupuncture Council
Why is this important?
- The BAcC is the UK‟s largest regulatory body for practitioners of traditional acupuncture with around 3,000 members
- To achieve BAcC membership, practitioners must first undertake extensive training in traditional acupuncture and western biomedical sciences (min. 3 years full-time or parttime equivalent) which includes physiology, anatomy, differential diagnosis and the actions and side effects of commonly prescribed medication.
