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 acupoints, specific places on the body identified by Chinese medicine, using heat, needles, heat, acupressure and electroacupuncture.
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 £38, unwaged £32 (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.
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 Complementary Health Clinic.

As a busy father of two young children, I can fully appreciate the stresses that come with modern day living. We are all constantly juggling, and I fully understand how this can feel overwhelming sometimes. That’s why your self-care is so important. Sometimes we need to put our own health first, so we are fully fit, and prepared for whatever life throws at us. That’s why I take a holistic approach to acupuncture, providing treatments to support your overall wellbeing, as well as focusing on any specific issues you may have. Treatments are aimed at uncovering the underlying cause of your symptoms and health concerns, helping the body to repair, and re-balance naturally. My aim as your practitioner is not only to help you with your symptoms, but to create a space where you feel calm, relaxed, and supported throughout your sessions.
My interest in health and bodywork began over twenty years ago through practising Tai Chi and Qigong. I was immediately fascinated with the concept of Qi and how this energy interacted within us, and the environment. This fascination led me down various paths of complementary medicine over the years, including kinesiology, reiki, and massage. Throughout this time, I met some amazing people, and attended many kinesiology courses. It was through this training that I became increasingly aware of the deeper roots involved in some of the kinesiology I was learning, such as, Chinese medicine.
A few years later I enrolled at the University of Westminster where I studied and completed a degree in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. Having practiced acupuncture professionally now for over eight years, I have treated a very wide range of conditions, some of these include: pain relief, stress, anxiety, depression, fertility, headaches, migraines, digestive issues, nausea, chronic fatigue, gynaecology, insomnia, and plenty more. I am more than willing to discuss any questions you may have regarding your own symptoms. I offer both private one to one treatment, and I also offer multi-bed sessions. For more information about these options please explore the website. Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about me.

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.

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.

She will create a bespoke treatment plan, to suit your body’s needs and will discuss this with you.
