Acupuncture In Norwich

Acupuncture and Multi-bed Acupuncture in Norwich

Acupuncture has been found especially effective for pain relief. Conditions treated range from migraine, and back pain, to nausea in pregnancy, complementary support for fertility, support for cancer patients and treatment for a range of autoimmune conditions.

It is a key part of the far eastern medical system of Chinese Medicine, which incorporates dietetics advice, herbal therapy and physical exercises (QiGong). It’s methods and teaching were systematically organised sometime between 2nd century BC and 2nd century AD and have been developed, researched and refined for over 2,000 years.

Treatment relies on stimulating acu-points, specific places on the body identified by Chinese medicine, using heat, needles, heat, acupressure and electroacupuncture.

Best Acupuncture in Norwich

Multi-bed Acupuncture

People choose to use Multi-Bed clinics because they make acupuncture treatment affordable, some also enjoy the community feel of the open plan setting and the ethos behind them. It’s a model of acupuncture authentic to China where more than one person is treated in the same room at the same time, cutting the cost of treatment.

In a Multi-Bed setting practitioners move from patient to patient giving treatment. Once needles are inserted patients relax while the acupuncturist treats the next person. The only difference between Multi-Bed and one to one treatment is that affordability is balanced against being treated in a public setting. The length of treatment is the same as it would be privately. Patient dignity is our priority and if you need to remove clothes you remain covered. A private room for a chat can be arranged if  need arises.  Our Multi-Bed room holds 3 treatment couches which are situated between long curtains to make them Covid-19 safe to provide maximum space for patients while being easily visible and accessible for the practitioners.

At Treat most of our treatments are in a Multi-Bed setting. The British Acupuncture Council (Acupuncture's regulatory body) recommend a minimum of 6-10 initial sessions for any condition and we know that regular treatment is more likely to yield positive outcomes for patients. The success and economy of Treat's Multi-Bed clinic in Norwich has made regular acupuncture treatment affordable for far more people.

Normally an initial session is private, allowing the Acupuncturist to make a full Chinese Medicine diagnosis and take a thorough history of your main complaint. This will enable our treatment to be more effective in the long term. There are some conditions that can suit our multi-bed sessions straightaway. Please call our team to discuss the best options for you - a qualified Acupuncturist will call you back if you are unsure what is best for you.

At treat we also have a special interest in acupuncture for fertility and pregnancy. This is led by acupuncturist and treat's Director Rebecca Geanty who is very passionate about helping people in this field.

Please make sure you eat before you arrive to an acupuncture appointment.

Rebecca and the treat acupuncture team are all qualified at degree level, carry full professional insurance and are registered with UK regulatory bodies for traditional acupuncture.

  

After the first appointment Multi-bed sessions cost £42, unwaged £36 (proof will be required).

Treat’s founder and proprietor Rebecca works as a registered Traditional Acupuncturist, specialising in natural fertility for men and women. With over eleven years experience running her own practice and a BsC (Hons) from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM) she has helped countless patients with a variety of mental, emotional and physical conditions. Rebecca has a special interest in supporting people through their fertility and Pregnancy journey. She is a very patient focused practitioner who takes time to listen to the patient, once gaining the in-depth insights she agrees treatment goals with the patient to increase health outcomes. Rebecca loves what she does, her passion comes through in every treatment she does.

In 2010 Rebecca created Norwich Acupuncture Rooms at The Orange Grove Clinic as a way of making acupuncture more accessible and affordable to a wide range of people. In China acupuncture is a very common practice and recommended weekly to begin with for effective treatment. Rebecca’s goal was to replicate this in the Western world with the multi-bed setting to allow patients the option of weekly treatment at a more affordable price.

A year later Rebecca also set up the Acupuncture Childbirth Team for East Anglia (ACT), which acts as an acupuncture network for other practitioners to share and learn information on natural birth techniques and pregnancy-related complaints. 

Rebecca’s latest passion is treat – a unique holistic clinic where the practitioners all strive to work together for the people of Norwich; combining their skills and knowledge in providing one-to-one care and group sessions/workshops, which empower and educate people to reach a state of well-being and contentment. Norwich Acupuncture Rooms is now an integral part of treat-norwich Health and wellbeing Clinic.

Liz Douglas Lic.Ac. BSc (Hons)

Liz is a licensed acupuncture practitioner, gaining a BSc (Hons) Degree in Acupuncture from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM) in Reading in 2019. She practices an integrated approach of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture. Liz specialises in treating children, holding a Diploma in Paediatric Acupuncture (2022). Liz is fully regulated and insured with the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC)

Liz has a special interest in a variety of conditions, particularly post-operative pain, circulatory conditions, digestive complaints, headaches and migraines, menopause and menstrual health. Liz enjoys being able to offer multi-bed treatments to make frequent treatment more affordable to those who would otherwise be unable to access holistic healthcare.

Liz uses a combined approach of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element Acupuncture. Classical Five Element acupuncture is based on the Five Elements of nature: fire, earth, metal, water and wood. Each of these five elements is within each of us and symptoms and diseases occur when these elements become unbalanced. Treatment using the Five Elements deals with the underlying causes
of disease rather than just treating the symptoms. The aim of Five Element acupuncture is to bring each of the elements back into balance to prevent disease from reoccurring.

Liz believes a collaborated approach to care improves the health and wellbeing of individuals and so is always happy to speak with your other healthcare providers and work alongside them and with you reviewing treatment often to ensure your symptoms are improving and you have all the information available to you to take ownership of your health.

When Liz became a mother of two this sparked her interest in how acupuncture could help young people. Liz recently completed a Diploma in Paediatric Acupuncture and now specialises in the treatment of children and young people. Liz will treat babies from newborn and uses a very gentle approach and has many non-needle techniques to help restore balance in the body. This may include Tui-Na massage which can be taught to parents / carers to use at home and in-between treatments. A childs Qi is so vital that minimal intervention is needed. Usually only one or two needles may be used on very small children if at all. Smallstick-on seeds or tiny pyonex can be used instead if the child isn’t sure about having needles. Liz aims to make the child as comfortable and relaxed as possible, hoping that acupuncture is a time in the week the child looks forward to. There is a collection of toys and books in the treatment room and she is always happy to speak to the parent before the consultation to talk though any concerns, and anything that would be easier to discuss without the child present. Liz fully understands how much the wellbeing of a child can have an effect on the whole family.

Liz holds a space for everyone to come and take a breath and work together towards restoring balance. If you have any questions or would like to know if treatment would be suitable for your child, please do not hesitate to email Liz to arrange a phone call at [email protected].

Liz is a member of the international Hub of Paediatric Acupuncture (HOPA) which has a great section for parents explaining the benefits of acupuncture for children.

You can also find out more about the common ailments acupuncture can help support for children and what to expect from a treatment on my website

Liz’s multibed appointments are limited and held for those that need help with the cost of treatment and are coming for regular treatments. Therefore, appointment costs that are claimed through insurance will need to be booked as private follow ups. If you are looking for lower cost treatment sessions please speak to Liz directly who may be able to add you to the waiting list.

Annie Astbury, Lic.Ac, BA (Hons), MAAC (Member of Association of Acupuncture Clinicians)

Annie discovered a holistic approach to her body, mind and spirit through her own yoga practice, at the age of 17. Yoga introduced her to the concept of ‘prana’ (primary energy in Sanskrit) this
unravelled an intrigue to discover more about ancient eastern philosophy and medicine.

Whilst working on a yoga retreat in Portugal, she was introduced to Five Element Acupuncture. Fascinted by the concept of diagnosing and treating a person’s element – Fire, Earth, Metal, Water and Wood. She needed to learn more, but it wasn’t until many years later that she has the opportunity to study this incredible form of medicine at The Acupuncture Academy in Leamington Spa.

Studying for her Licentiate for 4 years she feels she has opened a book that will never be closed. A world of endless intrigue, discovery and amazement at the power and depth of Classical Chinese Medicine. 

In the clinic, Annie’s approach offers each patient a tailored diagnosis of their health needs. During a thorough initial consultation, Annie will diagnose your element and any imbalances in your body, mind and spirit through detailed questioning, physical palpation and pulse and tongue diagnosis. Annie uses very fine (0.18mm guage needles) and she will work with your breath when inserting the needles to enable a more relaxed and painless treatment. She will create a bespoke treatment plan, to suit your body’s needs and will discuss this with you.


Annie has experience treating a wide range of conditions.

  • Musculoskeletal issues - neck, shoulder, back and knee pain.
  • Women's health - PMS, fertility, pre and post birth, menopause
  • Nervous system regulation - Sleep disorders, headaches, migraines,
  • Emotional health - anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD

Victoria Pickering Lic.Ac. BSc (Hons)

Victoria’s path into acupuncture began with her own experiences of seeking more complete approaches to health and wellbeing. What started as a personal journey grew into years of study, travel, and a deep commitment to holistic medicine.

During her travels, she was inspired by traditional healing systems from around the world, but it was Chinese Medicine that particularly resonated with her. She was drawn to its view of the body as an interconnected whole, with energy (qi) moving through pathways that influence both physical and emotional health. This perspective continues to shape her practice today.

What Victoria values most in acupuncture is its ability to work with the whole person, encompassing body, mind, and spirit, rather than treating symptoms in isolation. She offers a calm and supportive space where every patient is heard, and each treatment is tailored to the individual.

Her special interest lies in women’s health, influenced by her own experiences with fertility. She has seen how acupuncture can play a decisive role in supporting menstrual health, hormonal balance, endometriosis, PCOS, and fertility journeys, whether natural or alongside IVF.

Victoria’s professional background reflects her dedication to offering safe, effective and integrated care:

  • Graduated from the College of Naturopathic Medicine (CNM), one of the UK’s leading institutions for natural medicine education
  • Three years of intensive training in Traditional Chinese Acupuncture
  • Additional two-year certification in Naturopathy
  • Specialist training in women’s health and fertility support
  • Certified in complementary techniques including cupping, moxibustion, and electro-acupuncture
  • Qualified Reiki practitioner, offering energy-based support alongside acupuncture
  • Registered professional member of ANP, ATCM, GNC, and BAF
  • Ongoing professional development in food energetics and nutritional therapy


In her treatments, Victoria blends the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with a modern understanding of health and nutrition, offering comprehensive care designed to restore balance and promote long-term vitality.
