I established Grantham Acupuncture & Sports Massage Centre 10 years ago and I'm happy to say the practice has gone from strength to strength over that time. Helping many people manage and overcome their health issues; from back pain and sciatica to depression and anxiety to fertility issues. I am a qualified Acupuncturist, Sports Massage Therapist, Hypnotherapist, EFT practitioner & Master Reiki practitioner.
My passion is in helping people overcome their health issues using natural and complimentary therapies that help restore balance and health to the body and help remove limiting beliefs. I believe the body has an innate natural ability to heal itself if you provide it with the right conditions to do so.

Services
Traditional acupuncture works to maintain the body's equilibrium by focusing on all aspects of wellbeing; physical, mental, emotional. The acupuncturist inserts ultra fine, sterile, disposable needles at chosen points along energy channels of the body, known as meridians. The aim is to stimulate the bodys own healing response and restore its natural balance.
I am a fully qualified sports massage therapist (SMA) and studied with the Sports Massage Academy in Nottingham, obtaining a Level 3 Diploma in Sports Massage Therapy, which is a nationally recognized qualification.
I also studied Tui Na (Chinese Massage) through out my acupuncture degree and regularly perform massage as either a therapeutic intervention by itself or as part of an integrated treatment, that may combine elements of acupuncture, massage, cupping and moxibustion.Sports massage therapy is the management, manipulation and rehabilitation of soft tissues within the body, specifically the muscles, ligaments and tendons.

Reiki is a natural healing modality that started in Japan in the early twentieth century by a man named Mikao Usui. It is a form of hands on healing where Reiki energy is channeled through the therapist to the client. This is achieved through the therapist having attunements from a Reiki master. Attunemnets allow the Reiki energy to start flowing through the individual, opening up the energy centres of the body.
EFT is short for Emotional Freedom Technique. It is also known as tapping and falls under a branch of therapies called Energy Psychology. It was devised by Gary Craig and has been used successfully for the last 20 years by many therapists to help with many different conditions. It would be best described as a combination of a talk therapy and acupressure.

Originally went to see Peter as I suffer with degenerative disc disorder, and suffer real pain in my neck & shoulders, I have had a series of massage and acupuncture and it has been amazing, The first session was enlightening and I felt like a cloud had been lifted, all follow on sessions were also great, tailoring the plan to my needs. We also explored other methods such as Gua sha, which again made a real difference to my overall feeling. Excellent experience from a very professional therapist.

I initially went to see Peter with a sore back and legs due to static cycling. He helped me a great deal with this and I am recovering from my training much quicker and significantly less aches and pains day to day. After a few sessions we discussed my allergies and sinus congestion, Peter's expertise in this has made a remarkable difference to me! I can taste everything for the first time in years. Peter is also very friendly and makes you feel completely at ease. I can't recommend GA&SMC highly enough!

IWould give 10 stars if i could.I had been in such pain for over 6 months with a shoulder injury but after just 2 sessions I had around 50 percent more movement back and around the same less pain.i have had my 3rd appointment and I am still improving. Peter is very professional and quickly put me at ease.I had never had a massage or acupuncture before but would now fully encourage anyone to go ahead and try it the results for me have been amazing. Thank you Peter.

Peter is a life saver!
I've suffered with back problems and muscle tightness for around 10 years now, booked an appointment after trapping a shoulder muscle whilst sleeping. Amazingly friendly yet professional service, always putting me completely at ease (I have fairly bad anxiety). I've just had my fourth session of sports massage (with cupping/gua sha when wanted) and have noticed not only my neck, shoulders, back and hips improve but also my sleep and mood! Thank you Peter!

I have had my second treatment of sports massage and acupuncture I can certainly recommend it.
I hurt my back and arm and was in so much pain.
Peter explained everything in great detail and really put me at ease and was very professional. I had never had acupuncture before but I can certainly recommend it.
Can't believe how more mobile I am and not having to take any pain relief. The sports massage has certainly released a lot of the tension.
Thank you again Peter looking forward to my next round of treatment.
