About Lincoln

Our Mission: Improving Health Through Effective Treatment
In 2007, Lincoln first discovered acupuncture while suffering from back pain. By following a Chinese acupuncture textbook and treating himself, he was amazed not only by the results but also by the wisdom behind a healing system that has been practiced for more than 3,000 years.
From that moment, he set out to master the skill in order to help others.

Why Choose He Acupuncture

We take time to understand your main complaint and general health. Questions about menstrual history, past pregnancies and childbirth are included where relevant. If needles cause anxiety, we start gently and can use Japanese style needles for people with extra sensitivity. Practitioners explain alternatives if you prefer different point locations.

Our Acupuncture Treatment Process

After assessment we agree on a treatment plan outlining session frequency and goals. Early visits may be twice weekly for more severe presentations, then spaced as improvement occurs. Most people experience minimal sensation on insertion; occasional dull ache is common and can indicate a therapeutic response. All needles are single-use and sterile.

Whether you have an injury or other health requirement, we welcome you to our clinics.

Benefits of Acupuncture Therapy

Regular acupuncture can help reduce pain, improve sleep, ease muscle tension and support recovery from injury. Combining treatment with Chinese herbs and medicine can offer broader symptom control, particularly for longer-term conditions. Care is personalised and monitored — progress is reviewed and plans adapted.

  • Pain relief
  • Better sleep
  • Muscle relaxation
  • Recovery support

We encourage a practical approach to care: clear treatment goals, realistic timelines and measurable outcomes. Between sessions we provide advice on posture, simple exercise and lifestyle adjustments that support recovery. For pre-operative preparation or post-operative rehabilitation our team liaises with patients and other healthcare providers to ensure integrated care.

What Our Customers Says About Us

“Thank you so much for Lincoln’s amazing acupuncture treatments during my pregnancy-I wish I had come to see Lincoln sooner! I also want to thank Lincoln for helping Leo, my brother – his recovery is amazing from stroke. He is now walking and he can walk up the stairs to go to bed! He also walked to the kitchen & washed the dishes unbelievably! His speech is slowly improving too. Definitely, all my family recommend Lincoln with his amazing skills to others.”

“Thank you so much for the wonderful acupuncture and herbs I had throughout the summer. This really helped my anxiety which I was suffering from after a health scare. Having never had acupuncture & herbs before you made me feel very relaxed with your calming patient manner! Your knowledge of chinese medicine is superb and also found it so interesting hearing all about it. I am now feeling more like myself and enjoying life thanks to your help and I will thoroughly recommend you to anyone in need of help once again. Thank you so much Lincoln.”
