Louella graduated from the renowned College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (Reading) with a first class BSc Hons degree. Having studied both Five Element Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) she offers an integrated approach to treatment.

Five Element acupuncture addresses the patient’s deepest constitutional imbalance with an emphasis on treating at an emotional or ‘spirit’ level; whilst TCM treats at a more physical level and addresses a range of illnesses. This combination of treatment styles allows clients to be treated holistically; taking account of wider aspects of a patient’s health and well-being; treating not only the main complaint, but to also identify and address underlying causes, and related symptoms. Louella has a passionate belief in keeping the body, mind and spirit functioning optimally before it becomes unbalanced, by supporting emotional harmony. The Five Element approach in particular focuses on this aspect.

Previously, Louella worked for 14 years in the NHS as a Physiotherapist practising in both inpatients and outpatients, with a special interest in women’s health and paediatrics and latterly as a Specialist Respiratory Physiotherapist in Cystic Fibrosis for 8 years.

Louella enjoys her ‘downtime’ competing for GB Age Group in both Duathlon and Triathlon and became World Champion in May. It was competing at this level that first opened her eyes to the benefits of acupuncture and its ancillary techniques including cupping, moxabustion, gua sha and electro acupuncture, all helping to keep her ‘match-fit’!

Louella volunteers on Tuesday mornings at the Wessex Cancer Support Centre (Bournemouth). Acupuncture has been beneficial in treating common side effects including pain, nausea, neuropathy, insomnia and emotional issues.

Sanna’s 100 miles an hour lifestyle caught up with her in her 30’s and left her a shadow of her former self. She spent years trying to understand the cause of her gut pain that left her curled up in pain most nights and eventually, in A&E. It took total burnout to make her realise something had to change.

She started studying the science behind nutrition and lifestyle medicine and used her knowledge to make diet and lifestyle changes. The dark clouds lifted, she transformed her health and now lives a symptom-free life & is full of energy.

Sanna is now a Nutritionist and founder of Osku, specialising in hormone health. She helps women struggling with long-standing hormonal issues finally understand the cause of their problems and helps them rebalance their hormones and feel energised, revitalised and restored.
