Gavin has jointly managed 100’s of patients with doctors from all over the world. Having been accused of providing “World class Acupuncture” many times, he has reluctantly displayed it on his website! He’s incredibly excited to provide a low cost community service to Barnstaple for those that have chronic conditions that aren’t getting enough relief from pharmaceuticals.
Acupuncture (not what you receive on the NHS) is a complete form of medicine used to treat issues in the body by “fine tuning” the bodies central nervous system. By stimulating the CNS with techniques we can increase blood flow, lower inflammation, balance hormones and help the bodies’ own healing systems to perform optimally.
