Testimonials "...treatment was great and Tui Na massage wonderful..." Sue

Welcome to Muswell Hill Acupuncture with Liz Fiest, a North London acupuncture therapist, with acupuncture clinics covering Muswell Hill, Winchmore Hill, East Finchley, Crouch End and Bounds Green.

Liz combines acupuncture with Tui Na Chinese remedial massage which enhances both clinical results and speed of recovery.

The type of acupuncture that Liz practices combines treatment of your physical symptoms (Traditional Chinese Medicine) with treatment of your emotional well-being (Five Element acupuncture).

By encouraging the body’s healthy flow of ‘Qi’ or energy, acupuncture and massage can help you:

·       Move freely without pain
·       Sleep well
·       Reduce stress
·       Feel more energised

During her years in practice, Liz has treated a wide range of conditions including pain management, stress and injuries, acupuncture and back pain relief, arthritis, acupuncture for frozen shoulder, migraine headache, insomnia, menopausal symptoms, acupunture fertility and IVF acupuncture treatment. Research has shown that acupuncture combined with IVF increases the success rate. See Fertility

Please note only very fine, painless, disposable needles are used during treatment.

Liz Fiest
BSc(Hons) Acupuncture, Lic. Ac., Dip Tui Na

Having trained for three and a half years, I graduated with a degree and Licentiate from the highly regarded College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (validated by Kingston University and accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board).

As a fully insured Chinese Medicine practitioner, I abide by a strict code of ethics and professional development.

Alongside acupuncture, I also use Tui Na (Chinese massage) and hold a post-graduate Diploma from the University of Westminster. Combining Tui na massage with acupuncture enhances the speed of recovery in treatments, in particular: injuries, back pain, frozen shoulder, whiplash, arthritis and migraines.

Treatments will also include Chinese Dietary Therapy and Qi Gong (Chinese remedial health exercises) where appropriate to help you regain good health.

Further Training

During my years in practice I have treated a wide variety of conditions with a particular interest in musculo-skeletal conditions and fertility treatment.

Post-graduate training has included courses in Spinal: Examination and Treatment and Limbs: arthritis, MS, sports injuries, back pain, whiplash, frozen shoulder.

As I also have a keen interest in treating fertility and gynaecological conditions I continue to develop my skills and training in this area. Treatment for fertility includes encouraging simple lifestyle changes to improve the chances of conception, based on Chinese Medicine diagnosis.

For 3 years I worked as an acupuncturist at The Core Trust, a clinic for the treatment of alcohol and substance misuse, where I treated a wide range of conditions including insomnia, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome and anxiety.

Tui Na (Chinese Remedial Massage)

Tui Na (pronounced Twee Na) is a massage therapy and, like acupuncture, has been used in China for over 2500 years. Tui Na is extremely effective at treating acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain and is an effective intervention for disc problems, frozen shoulder, sciatica, whiplash, back pain and joint pain. It is also useful in balancing the overall energy of the body and can treat a similar range of conditions as acupuncture. Tui Na is a valid alternative for conditions that might otherwise be treated with prescription drugs or by osteopaths, chiropractors and physiotherapists. It is usually administered through light clothing.
