CHRISTELLESIN ACUPUNCTURE & NATUROPATHY

Hello and welcome to Christellesin Acupuncture & Naturopathy  

 

My name is Christelle and I am a fully qualified and registered Acupuncturist and Naturopath in the 7th Arrondissement of Paris.

​

My journey with acupuncture started at a time when as a student in French preparatory classes, I had crippling anxiety ahead of the final exams. I tried acupuncture, and to my biggest surprise, within a few sessions, my anxiety alleviated and was replaced by a sense of inner calm. This experience made a profound impression on me, and over the years, I continued to use acupuncture and to see its benefits on a wide array of conditions for my friends, family and myself.

 

Later on, after my studies at the ESCP Business School ('Ecole Supérieure de Commerce de Paris') and working in investment banking, a desire to know more about the mysterious workings of acupuncture, coupled with an interest for natural health and well-being and the desire to work in a profession with a positive impact inspired me to retrain as an Acupuncturist and Naturopath. I studied Chinese Medicine and Naturopathy for 4 years at the highly respected College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as the foundation of my acupuncture training, and opened my first practice in Parsons Green, South West London. 

​

My objective is to deliver effective acupuncture and naturopathic advice in a caring and supportive environment, and I strive to give every one of my patients the time, empathy and attention they need to find their own healing path. 

The integration of principles drawn from both  Chinese and Naturopathic Medicines offers my patients a unique treatment to restore physical and emotional balance. And my patients often walk away with a greater sense of overall wellbeing and self-awareness about what is important to maintain that balance. 

​

I am a member of the French Fédération Nationale de Médecine Traditionnelle Chinoise (FNMTC) and an Overseas member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC), the largest body of professional acupuncturists in the UK, which guarantees excellence in training and high standards of education. As such, I am fully insured and bound by strict Codes of Safe Practice, Professional Conduct and Disciplinary Procedures. These Codes ensure that my patients are offered the highest standards of professional care during their treatment.

​

I have a strong belief in continuing personal and professional development, and I complete a minimum of 30 hours of Continuing Professional Development per year to ensure my skills deepen, improve and remain up-to-date.

​

Acupuncture is a great ally of women's health during the different cycles of life and one important part of my clinical practice is dedicated to women's health and well-being. 

I have completed specialist training with the Acupuncture Fertility Network (AFN-certified additional training) in Acupuncture for Fertility and IVF support under the supervision of Paul Johnson, one of the best Chinese Medicine practitioners in Acupuncture for fertility in the UK.

 I also work closely with other therapists and practitioners, to whom I refer my patients when necessary.
