Meet Uby
I am a Traditional Chinese Medicine Acupuncturist and Doula with 22 years of clinical experience. I specialise in natural fertility and women’s health.
I also use acupuncture to help patients suffering from muscular and joint pains, migraines, problems with digestion and circulation systems, allergies and emotional imbalances as well as helping those who wish to maintain and promote health as a way of preventing illness.
I employ a holistic approach that not only treats illness, but also helps women make choices in their lives to prevent disease.
"In Traditional Chinese Medicine we treat the whole patient, considering the root causes affecting a patient's reproductive wellness and their overall wellbeing. Chinese medicine gives me the tools to diagnosis each patient’s unique pattern of imbalance and to work with them to correct those imbalances and foster true healing of the mind, body and spirit."
I qualified as an acupuncturist in 2000 at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, the largest institution of its kind in the UK, where I completed an intensive and comprehensive 3½ year training, studying both western and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I have been studying Chinese Medicine since 1977, and have been practising Shiatsu since graduating from the British School of Shiatsu-Do in 1984.
I have taught at the London College of Traditional Acupuncture and the School of Five Elements Acupuncture in addition to my acupuncture and shiatsu practices. I am a registered member of the British Acupuncture Council (MBAcC), the professional body for acupuncturists in the UK, which carries with it a strict code of ethics and professional conduct.
As with all the clinic's practioners, Uby is firmly committed to her professional development in order to ensure that she brings the most up-to-date and broad spectrum of knowledge to her clients.
