Acupuncture with Julia

20/04/2026

Acupuncture works gently with the body’s natural healing processes, encouraging recovery, calming the nervous system, and restoring balance both physically and emotionally.

Julia is a fully qualified and licensed acupuncturist and a registered member of the British Acupuncture Council. She trained at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, gaining a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element Acupuncture. By blending both approaches, she offers treatments that are deeply personalised, thoughtful, and holistic.

Motherhood changes everything. It is beautiful, emotional, exhausting, and full of constant adjustment. From recovering after birth and navigating broken sleep, to feeding challenges, hormonal shifts, and the demands of a brand-new routine, it can feel like a lot. And during this time, the right support can make all the difference.

For mums acupuncture can be a powerful source of care and restoration. The early months of motherhood often bring deep fatigue, emotional ups and downs, tension in the body, and very little time to reset. Julia supports women through postnatal recovery, low energy, sleep struggles, stress, and breastfeeding concerns, helping them feel more like themselves again.

Acupuncture can help move the body out of a stressed “fight or flight” state and into a calmer “rest and digest” mode. This allows the nervous system to settle, which can support better sleep, steadier hormones, improved mood, and a deeper sense of wellbeing, something many mothers find incredibly restorative.

Many people approach acupuncture for support with stress, sleep, hormonal balance or pain. Every treatment is tailored to the individual, because no two women, and no two motherhood journeys are ever the same.

Treatments can also support a wide range of women’s health concerns, including painful or heavy periods, irregular cycles, PCOS, endometriosis, menopausal symptoms, and pregnancy care. Emotional wellbeing is just as important, with many women seeking treatment for anxiety, overwhelm, and low mood.

Beyond women’s health, acupuncture is also widely used for pain relief, including back pain, sciatica, headaches, neck tension, and postural strain, as well as digestive issues, allergies, and ongoing health concerns.

What makes acupuncture so special is that it does not just focus on symptoms – it looks at the whole person. At a stage of life when so much of your energy goes into caring for everyone else, it offers a chance to be cared for too.

Because when a mum feels supported, everything around her feels lighter!

As with many natural therapies, the benefits of acupuncture are cumulative, with each treatment building on the last. For the best results and a deeper sense of lasting wellbeing, Julia recommends a course of at least five sessions. As a special offer for Clapham Mums, the 5th treatment is 50% off.
