Acupuncture & Integrative Wellbeing in York
Supporting your physical and emotional wellbeing with acupuncture, somatic and psychotherapeutic approaches.
I’m Nicky Thomas, a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine with over 25 years’ experience. I offer a gentle, holistic approach to acupuncture, taking time to listen to the whole person and understand the physical, emotional and energetic factors that may be contributing to how you feel.
My work is particularly informed by the connection between body and mind, and by the ways in which stress, pain, illness and life experiences can affect our sense of wellbeing.
Alongside acupuncture, my training in counselling, somatic approaches, trauma awareness, hypnotherapy, yoga and Qi Gong allows me to draw on a broader range of perspectives when supporting you.
Whether you are seeking help with pain, hormonal health, stress, fatigue, sleep or simply feel that your body and wellbeing are no longer quite where you would like them to be, we can explore together what might be helpful for you.

Acupuncture
Did you know?
Pain Management
Acupuncture is widely known for its effectiveness in the treatment of pain. Acupuncture is widely used to help manage pain and offer relief for people experiencing both acute and chronic pain. It is often sought by people experiencing musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions affecting the muscles, joints, tendons and ligaments. Research has explored its effects on a range of painful conditions, and many people choose acupuncture as part of their approach to managing pain, improving mobility, and supporting their quality of life.
Stress & Anxiety
My clinical experience has shown me that acupuncture can be a valuable source of support for people experiencing stress and anxiety. One of the most common things patients tell me is how much more relaxed they feel following treatment, often describing a greater sense of calm fewer physical symptoms, and an improved ability to cope with the demands of everyday life.
Women's Health
Our reproductive health is closely connected with the wider workings of the body. Stress, emotional wellbeing, genetics, nutrition, sleep and lifestyle can all influence how we feel and how we experience hormonal changes.
