My name is Duncan Ford Ba (hons), Lic.ac, MBAcC Cert KHT. I obtained my First class honours degree in Traditional Acupuncture at CTA, which before its closure was the oldest college of acupuncture in Europe. I have full membership with the British Acupuncture Council which is the leading regulatory body for the practice of acupuncture in the UK.
I am fully committed to the practice of acupuncture in all its forms and continuously work to develop myself professionally, so as to be able to provide the best possible care for my patients. I regularly attend postgraduate courses to further develop myself as a practitioner and to deepen my understanding of this living tradition.

Services
The first consultation involves taking a medical history and a detailed discussion of symptoms. Extremely fine, sterile needles are usually then applied to specific points. Other techniques include cupping and moxabustion (a gentle warming treatment). Sometimes acupressure is more appropriate. Patients often report a sense of clarity and relaxation after treatment.
