Cath has always been drawn to working with women and helping them navigate the many physical and emotional changes that life can bring. With a background in complementary healthcare spanning more than two decades, she has extensive experience as a massage therapist and reflexologist. Over the years, she has supported many women through fertility and pregnancy, an area particularly close to her heart due to her own fertility journey.
She trained as an acupuncturist at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM), gaining a First Class BSc (Hons) in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element acupuncture, and has a particular interest in acupuncture for women’s health, fertility, pregnancy and postnatal well-being. She also completed a Diploma in Acupuncture for Gynaecology, Fertility and Obstetrics at CICM, allowing her to deepen her knowledge and combine her different areas of expertise.
Areas of particular interest:
- Fertility and IVF Support
- Pregnancy, birth preparation and postnatal well-being
- Gynaecological health
- Menopause
- Musculoskeletal and sports injuries
- Stress and anxiety
- Insomnia
- Digestive issues
In addition to acupuncture, she has been teaching Iyengar Yoga for many years. Working with women through yoga has given her a real appreciation of how differently each woman perceives their body, and how important it is to adapt an individual approach.
Cath believes in helping people with simple, practical ways to support their wellbeing between treatments. Drawing on her experience, she can offer individual lifestyle advice around relaxation, movement, nutrition, sleep and everyday self-care, helping women feel more informed and empowered throughout their fertility and pregnancy journeys.
Cath aims to offer a calm, compassionate and down-to-earth space where women feel listened to and understood. She enjoys getting to know the person behind the symptoms and working together to help them feel as comfortable, confident and well supported as possible during their journey towards motherhood.
She is a member of the British Acupuncture Council and the Iyengar Yoga Association.
