About Me
My name is Jo Llewellyn and I am a fully qualified, traditional acupuncturist working from a quiet and relaxing clinic in Hither Green, SE13
I studied at The Acupuncture Academy where I was awarded their Professional Licentiate in Acupuncture, which is a three year degree level qualification accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board. My training was extensive and covered all aspects of Chinese medical and acupuncture theory, with a focus on the five element approach. This means that I will consider your main health problem, together with a holistic approach to you as an individual.
I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council and adhere to the Council's Codes of Safe Practice and Professional conduct. British Acupuncture Council members are also registered with the Professional Standards Authority which is a government body set up to regulate health and social care providers, and is accountable to Parliament.
I hold full medical malpractice and public/products liability insurance cover.

What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a branch of traditional medicine that has been practised in China and the far east for thousands of years. It has been developed, tested, researched and refined over this time into a treatment option accessed by increasing numbers of patients in the West. Without the benefit of modern scientific equipment, the first acupuncturists discovered many now familiar aspects of biomedical science.

A growing body of evidence-based clinical research is discovering how the body responds to acupuncture and its benefits for a wide range of common health conditions. Many people have acupuncture to relieve specific aches and pains such as osteoarthritis of the knee, TMJ pain, headaches and low back pain, or for common health problems like an overactive bladder. Other people choose acupuncture when they can feel their bodily functions are out of balance but have no obvious western medical diagnosis leading to western medical treatment. Many also have regular treatments simply because they find it beneficial and relaxing.

The focus for a traditional acupuncturist is on the patient as an individual and not just their specific illness, and all symptoms are seen as part of an interconnected pattern. Treatment involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points which are said to affect the flow of your body’s qi, or vital energy, although there is ongoing research and study that suggests what many practitioners already know: that inserting needles into the channels (or meridians) affects change within the human body, and the term 'energy' is rather simplistic.

What does it feel like?

Many patients are concerned that acupuncture maybe painful but as the needles are flexible and about as thick as two human hairs there is usually only a very slight sensation as it enters the skin. Sometimes patients also feel a dull ache on the acupuncture point but this also only lasts for a few seconds and is generally not considered to be uncomfortable. Many find acupuncture relaxing and feel very calm during and after a treatment; you may also feel a little tired or sleepy so if possible, try to arrange a relatively restful and quiet day, especially for your first treatment.

Is it safe?

Acupuncture is one of the safest medical treatments currently on offer in the UK, in fact in 2001 a number of studies concluded that the risk of serious adverse reaction to acupuncture is less than 1 in 10,000. Any minor side effects that do occur, such as dizziness or bruising around needle points, are infrequent, mild and self-correcting. To see more information regarding the safety of acupuncture please visit the British Acupuncture Council's website.

Cupping:

Cupping is an ancient form of treatment, which helps stimulate the flow of Qi in the body. It involves the use of suction cups which are placed on the area being treated. Clients typically come for cupping for: Lower back pain, Neck and shoulder pain, Headache and migraine, knee pain. Cupping is sometimes combined with acupuncture, but can also be an effective treatment on its own.

Osteopathy/Craniosacral Therapy

I also offer Craniosacral Therapy, which is a gentle but powerful way of working with the body using light touch. CST works holistically with the whole person and changes may occur in body, mind and spirit during and after sessions. Because CST is so gentle and non-invasive it is suitable for everyone from newly born babies to the elderly. Women often come during pregnancy and with their babies for problems associated with difficult or traumatic births, CST helps the body to let go of tension and fear which may have been held in the body for years. CST works to balance the nervous system, and is very effective when applied to trauma or emotional problems. During or after a session, you may feel calm and energised, with increased clarity of mind and a feeling of well-being.
