A Spotlight on Women’s Health in Horsham

We pride ourselves on the depth of experience we have to offer women during different stages of life. Here are some of the ways our team can help. 

Siân Morriss
Fertility & Pregnancy Acupuncture

‘Women come to us for several reasons when trying to conceive. It can be early in their journey, after some time of trying, with a history of miscarriage or embarking on assisted fertility (IVF). Whatever the starting point we want to understand the cause of the fertility issues within an overall health picture.

Treating the whole person to help create the conditions to embark on parenthood. I work with many women initially for fertility and then supporting them through their pregnancy. In early pregnancy this can be alleviating morning sickness, managing anxiety or pain. From 33+ weeks I see women with breech babies. Using moxibustion, a heat therapy, which helps encourage baby to move to a head down position.

Towards the end of pregnancy, the focus shifts to labour preparation and I also teach how to use acupressure for pain relief in labour. I can vouch for it; I used it in my labour.’

Catherine Leavett
Pregnancy & Post Natal Massage

‘I use Pregnancy Massage to help support the changing body as it adapts to the increasing weight of the baby. It is particularly effective at releasing fatigued and overworked muscles in the back, legs and pelvis, preparing the body for birth.

Post Natal Massage aims to bring balance back into a woman’s body after giving birth. It addresses postpartum musculoskeletal pain, using strategies to help relieve overused and tired muscles caused by pregnancy, birth, and motherhood.

Each treatment is tailored to the individual, whether it’s relieving and strengthening weak muscles, assisting with diastasis healing and c-section scar recovery, or simply relaxation.’

Helen Turier
Reflexology for Chronic Stress

‘The many challenges, stresses and strains of modern life take our mind and body out of balance. Over time this leads to chronic stress which is a big factor in symptoms like anxiety, depression, tension and overwhelm.

In order to support our body we need to help it switch easily between its stress state and its relaxed state. Since 2007 I have been supporting women’s mental and physical health using reflexology. This gentle non-invasive therapy activates our relaxation response and is well recognised for the way it reduces tension & stress, improves sleep and enhances wellbeing.

Try it, you’ll be surprised how much it can help you relax.’ 

Sarah-Jane Lilly
Facial Enhancement Acupuncture

‘Facial Enhancement Acupuncture is a holistic treatment I use to target ageing by sculpting, tightening, and plumping your skin. I use fine needles to stimulate circulation and collagen production, leaving your complexion smoother, firmer, and healthier. Tailored sessions offer a relaxing, natural alternative to surgery or Botox.’

Lavina Cullen
Perimenopause & Menopause Support

‘I love helping women during this stage of life! The menopausal journey, with the right support, can be empowering. It provides us with an opportunity to create change and enter our next stage of life healthy and energised.

Many women come to the clinic looking for help with hot flushes, exhaustion, brain fog, digestion issues and much more.

I have been using both acupuncture and herbal medicine with my patients since 2005 and more recently have been training with the Institute of Functional Medicine, so I also incorporate testing and supplements where necessary.

I help my patients to complete an audit and overhaul of their lifestyle to alleviate their symptoms and live their best lives.’
