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.

Traditional acupuncture is a branch of traditional Chinese medicine – a tried and tested healthcare system that has been practised for thousands of years in China and the Far East. The first known book of Chinese Medicine, The Classic of Internal Medicine of the Yellow Emperor, dates back to between the first century BC and the first century AD. All styles currently practised around the world trace their roots back to this text.
Acupuncture is widely considered to be beneficial for a range of illnesses and symptoms, from clearly defined complaints to more general feelings of ill health and low energy. Take a look at the British Acupuncture Council’s research fact sheet here to find out more about how traditional acupuncture can help you. NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) recommends acupuncture for the treatment of migraines, headaches and back pain on the NHS.
