About Us
How does Acupuncture work?
Acupuncture operates on the central nervous system. Needles are used to stimulate the energy flow in the body. The stimulation then releases chemicals into the muscles, brain, and spinal cord. Because of these biochemical alterations, acupuncture activates the body’s natural healing potential.
How does Massage work?
Massage works by manipulating the body’s soft tissues to promote relaxation, relieve muscle tension, and improve circulation. It can also help to reduce stress and anxiety and may have other therapeutic benefits depending on the type of massage and the individual’s specific needs.

Our Clients Said
“I had been suffering from bad back pain for a long period of time and had tried various treatments with no success. After getting acupuncture I felt immediate relief from my pain. Continued with three follow-up treatments and the pain was gone for good. I highly recommend acupuncture to anyone experiencing chronic pain.”
Craig
I went to see Peter as a result of having pain in my neck, shoulder and elbow from a work related repetitive strain injury. I got a great massage from Peter (so good I went back for a second one) and my symptoms are much improved. Peter has a holistic approach to his treatment and is very generous in sharing his knowledge and helping in any way that he can. I am delighted to have found him and will be going back for further maintenance treatments.
Bernie R.
Peter was very welcoming and made the experience most enjoyable. He explained the process clearly and discussed various methods to help me deal with my situation. Painless and very relaxing I felt relief from pain quickly through acupuncture. The massage helped a lot and I walked out much better than when I walked in! I’ll be going back. Thank you Peter.

Very friendly and knowledgeable, Peter identified the issues quickly and told me what I need to be doing at home to help with the treatment. Booked In for another session. Anyone with back problems, come and see this man!

Acupuncture for sciatica
The back, hip, and leg pain caused by sciatica cause immense nerve issues. Acupuncture works to improve circulation and relax tight muscles. This regulates the nervous system and produces neurotransmitters that reduce pain. It is an effective treatment safe from the side effects of prescription medications.
Acupuncture for Hay fever
Acupuncture stimulation can effectively treat allergic reactions like hay fever. We stimulate pressure points around the face, including muscle and tissue, for relief. The therapy challenges the histamine immune response and the resulting inflammation. It is also able to restore balance by regulating antibodies.
Acupuncture for tennis elbow
Overuse of the forearm muscle can result in tennis elbow, which causes extreme pain. Acupuncture can reduce the inflammation in those muscles to offer significant pain relief. Increasing blood flow also speeds up the healing process in case of muscle tears.
Acupuncture for shoulder pain
Acupuncture therapy can also treat chronic shoulder pain caused by inflammation. Our clinic in Edinburgh specializes in standard and individualized therapy treatment. These are effective for pain reduction and long-term pain management.
Acupuncture for Asthma
Clinical studies in recent years have found that the use of acupuncture in the treatment of bronchial asthma has a good clinical application prospect.
Acupuncture for tendonitis
Tendon inflammation can be extremely disconcerting and painful. As acupuncture targets and reduces inflammation, it effectively treats tendonitis. Because of this, it also speeds up the healing process.
