I have a passion for helping individuals overcome health challenges and finding balance in their lives.

About me

Renowned London acupuncturist

I have been in clinical practice as an Acupuncturist for over 20 years having graduated with a BSc honors degree in Traditional Chinese medicine. I treat clients seeking support with infertility, pain relief, insomnia, anxiety disorders and many other conditions using a comprehensive medical understanding alongside traditional acupuncture. I combine traditional healing techniques with modern advanced scientific methodology incorporating low level light and laser therapy with referrals for tests and investigation where appropriate.

Treatments

Holistic treatments that focus on my clients needs

My approach is always to help patients understand what’s going on for them and to design easy, manageable, and practical treatment plans that work for the individual. The goal is to empower patients and find solutions together, treatment plans will differ depending on  needs. In my work specialising in fertility I have helped hundreds of people achieve their dream of having a baby and have treated thousands of clients over the last 20 years with a range of challenges from Endometriosis and PCOS to hypothalamic amenorrhea.

    Next up, an audience with the acupuncturist Lora Macfarlane. I've seen my fair share of well known needlers over the years, but Lora was unlike any other. Data-driven and almost scientific in her approach, she incorporates low-level light laser therapy and reflexology into her work, and has a razor-sharp understanding of the human body. I lie on a PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) mat, designed to reduce inflammation and boost blood flow, and Lora inserts her slender needles swiftly and painlessly, targeting points to support the immune system and calm anxiety. Finally, my mind stops racing.

    I highly recommend lovely Lora. She is brilliant – knowledgable, experienced, warm, and thoughtful. The best acupuncturist in town!

    Empathetic, kind, professional, and with amazing energy to be around – Lora's truly holistic approach to treatments for physical or emotional needs is transformative. I could go on and on saying wonderful things about her but one appointment with her and you’ll see for yourself

    I have been seeing Lora for quite a while now. Her treatments have helped me greatly, and I find that she’s very good in adapting the treatment to the specific symptoms experienced in the week(s) before the session. She is also amazing at facial acupuncture, which I feel has shown visible results when it comes to my general skin condition as well as its anti-aging properties. She’s also just a lovely person, so I would highly recommend.

    I was highly recommended to come and see Lora as time was ticking being 41. I had a miscarriage in the February but generally had good fertility from previous tests the year before, regular periods but wanted to do everything I could to give myself a chance to be a Mum. My first session was in April and I thought she was amazing her knowledge, her experience and her honesty! We had a few sessions and I was pregnant the following month!
