Lucie Charrington Lic.Ac BSc (Hons)
​
I’m Lucie, a fully qualified Acupuncturist specialising in Five Element Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). I hold a Licentiate in Acupuncture BSc (Hons) from the renowned College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, one of the UK’s leading acupuncture training institutions.
To ensure my knowledge remains current, I complete 30 hours of CPD training every year, continually expanding my skills to offer the highest standard of care.
​​
I am trained to treat a wide range of health concerns and I strongly believe in working alongside Western Medicine to provide safe, complementary and integrative care. Where appropriate, I collaborate with other healthcare professionals and will always recommend additional support if it is in your best interest.
​
I have a particular passion for women’s health, including fertility, pregnancy, postnatal support and menopause preparation. My additional specialist training allows me to support women through every stage of their hormonal journey.
​
I frequently treat musculoskeletal conditions, using Orthopaedic testing alongside Traditional East Asian diagnostic techniques to identify the root cause of discomfort and create effective treatment plans.
​​
I have volunteered at The Fountain Centre, supporting patients undergoing cancer treatment at St Luke’s, Royal Surrey Hospital in Guildford. This experience deepened my understanding of how Acupuncture can support people during physically and emotionally challenging times.
Alongside Chinese Medicine, I enjoy integrating doTERRA Essential Oils into my treatments. I have found them to be a beneficial natural support for both patients and my own family.​
​I live near Alresford and Alton in Hampshire and am a mum of three (including twins), a wife, mountain lover, walker and skier. I understand the pressures of balancing family life, work and wellbeing. This insight shapes the calm, supportive space I offer.
My aim is to create a relaxed, confidential environment where you feel listened to and supported. I want to empower you to make meaningful changes that enhance your physical and emotional wellbeing, helping you enjoy everyday life with confidence and balance. ​

I thought about having Acupuncture for some time as I have a painful right foot.
I met Lucie in Reading , She explained the whole process to me. Giving me very useful information.
I understood that the treatment was a holistic treatment and many systems in the body would benefit.
On our first meeting, Lucie was very welcoming, she took a full assessment and identified areas that she may be able to help i.e sleep issues.
She is a good listener, and showed a lot of kindness and empathy towards me.
After each session I felt relaxed, calm and lifted. I attended for many sessions and felt the benefit on each occasion.
I will continue with Acupuncture in the future.
Thank you Lucie for all you have done for me .

I have had back pain for the last 20 years, every three to six months I get a back spasm that means I can't stand up straight. This normally lasts for about two weeks, i have a physical job and not being able to stand up is far from ideal. Last Tuesday I had the dreaded pain in my back that I knew would develop over the next few hours into a scoliosis that would last for two weeks. I contacted and saw Lucie the next day, in the hope she might be able to help, after a 45 minute needling session the back had loosened somewhat, but the real difference was over the next two days the spasm released and i was back to physical work by Friday, For anyone who knows back pain there is nothing quite as wonderful as it getting better and to get movement back so unexpectedly quickly is quite brilliant - I can highly recommend you seeing Lucie she is brilliant!"
