The clinic was set up to provide a new approach to the care of patients with both acute and long-term problems. It brings together both conventional, traditional and complementary therapies.

Patients are individually assessed by experienced doctors and an individual program of complementary therapy developed so as to support any conventional treatment which they already receive.

Both Dr. Affifa Farrukh and Professor John Mayberry are registered practising physicians and gastroenterologists. They are able to help maximise control of your symptoms through using a mixture of treatments. They have a strong belief that there is a role for traditional treatments and there is growing scientific evidence to support this.

Herbs were commonly used before western pharmaceuticals were introduced. Treating and preventing medical conditions with herbs is naturally safe, as an overdoes would cause irritation or nausea instead of landing in the emergency room.

We specialize in non-narcotic practise in healing pain such as headaches, chronic pain, joint pain and back pain. We use an array of proven methods such as chiropractic care and rehabilitation. Our goal is to treat and relieve your pain permanently instead of using pharmaceutical for temporary relief.

After my first visit to Claire she drastically improved my hot flushes, improved my sleeping & I had a lot more energy. I’m so glad I decided to give it a try as she has totally transformed me. I now only go monthly & although I don’t have any of the symptoms that I originally went for I enjoy it so much I will continue to go as it makes me feel so energised.

Following a miscarriage, my body and my mind were all over the place. Claire put me at ease the moment we spoke on the phone. Every session made me wanting more and feeling great. After only 5 sessions, I'm back on track and couldn't be happier with a baby on the way.

I have been to see other acupuncturists, however none are like Claire. From my first session I knew Claire was gifted and truly understood what I needed. Claire cares and explains in a wonderful informative way what she is doing and why. She is incredibly well educated in her field and I am put at ease knowing that I’m in the most capable of hands
