How can I help?

Pain & injuries

From acute pain to chronic conditions, acupuncture can provide relief and prevent further injury by increasing blood circulation, reducing inflammation and releasing natural pain-relieving chemicals like endorphins.

Sleep & digestive issues

By calming the nervous system and improving internal function, acupuncture can help regulate sleep patterns and restore healthy digestion for more energy and ease in daily life.

Women’s health

Acupuncture offers natural support for hormonal balance, menstrual health, PMS, PCOS, endometriosis and menopausal symptoms – helping you feel more in tune with your body at every stage of life.

Headaches & migraines

Acupuncture provides lasting relief from headaches and migraines by addressing underlying imbalances and reducing tension, inflammation and stress triggers.

Fertility & pregnancy

Whether you're trying to conceive or navigating pregnancy, acupuncture gently supports reproductive health, optimises fertility, and eases common symptoms like morning sickness, fatigue and stress.

Mental health

Rooted in the mind-body connection, acupuncture can ease anxiety, lift low mood and promote emotional resilience – supporting your mental wellbeing from the inside out.

Hi, I’m Drew…

…a licensed acupuncturist working in Leyton, East London, dedicated to helping people restore balance and wellbeing through natural, holistic care.

I have a special interest in women’s health, fertility, pregnancy, and IVF support, as well as on helping those managing chronic issues such as stress, anxiety, insomnia, digestive concerns, and pain conditions.

I am a fully insured member of the British Acupuncture Council, the leading professional body for acupuncturists in the UK, and a member of the Acupuncture Fertility Network.

In my clinic I employ a gentle, compassionate, non-judgemental approach, and create a calm and welcoming space where you feel listened to, nurtured and supported on your journey to wellbeing.

  • "I was treated by Drew initially for some injuries as a result of weight training, and over a period of 8 or 9 weeks they really improved – and I got back to weight training! But in particular, he supported my resilience during a stressful time as part of a more holistic approach to my wellbeing, which made a huge difference. His calm manner and positivity helped me take a break from the tougher bits of my life, and coming for treatment with Drew felt like a genuine oasis of peace each week."
