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.

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.

Sperm health matters more than most people realise…
It’s not just about count — quality, motility, and DNA integrity all play a huge role in fertility outcomes.
The good news? There’s a lot that can be done to support it.
I’ve put together a simple, practical guide to help you understand where to start ✨

Hayfever Help! 🌿 (Part 1)
Struggling with blocked sinuses or itchy eyes? Try these two simple acupressure points:
✨ LI20 – found either side of the nostrils
Helps open the nasal passages and relieve congestion
✨ Yintang – between the eyebrows
Calms irritation, sinus pressure, and helps soothe itchy eyes
Gently massage each point for 30–60 seconds.
Save this for later or share with someone you know who suffers from hayfever 💛
If your symptoms are ongoing or more severe, acupuncture can offer longer-term support.
