To complement Lucy’s wellbeing service, she also offers a very unique holistic treatment in the form of ear acupuncture, a 5-point protocol to help mind, body and soul.

The Story

​

Back in 2010, when Lucy still worked in drug and alcohol treatment, she learned about the amazing effects of ear acupuncture with NADA GB. To complement the talking therapy and other treatments on offer at her place of work, clients were invited to join in with group ear acupuncture treatment.

 

This silent treatment helped clients manage their symptoms of substance reduction during their recovery. Symptoms such as tremors, poor sleep, anxiety, depression and hot sweats were reportedly reduced.

 

Lucy put herself forward to train in this area and felt honoured to help many clients walking a very difficult path.

 

Although the treatment was not a cure, clients told her that they felt better without the edge of severe symptoms that could have easily hindered their recovery. The fact that it is a silent treatment meant they did not have to disclose anything that they didn’t want to share, simply allowing the needles to do their work.

 

When Lucy open her private coaching practise in 2020, she remembered the effects of the NADA GB approach and did further research. She discovered that the evidence to support NADA not only increased in addiction, but also others areas of physical and mental wellbeing.

 

She found out that this treatment can support menopause symptoms, PTSD, anxiety, low mood, ADHD, headaches, migraines and pain. She knew she wanted to add this to her service.

 

In 2020, she reached out to NADA GB and enrolled onto the next training course and her passion was reignited. She patiently waited for doors to reopen after lockdown and welcomed clients into the warmth, cosy space for a mind, body and soul reset.

 

Today, she continues to work from her home treatment room in her garden in Hampshire, affectionately named The Nook.

Resilient Energy Beads

​

As part of the treatment, Lucy also places tiny gold-plated beads on certain acupressure points in each ear. This allows clients to continue to self-regulate following treatment, simply by pressing or massaging the points three times a day.

 

By doing this, the point is reactivated, resulting in a longer term, gentle experience. This calms the nervous system and helps soothe symptoms.

​

For those who cannot make it to Hampshire, Lucy also offers acupressure beads to be delivered to them so that they can self-regulate for longer term benefits.
