What patients commonly say after treatment
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“After many years of knee pain from osteoarthritis, I’d had both knees replaced but was still in discomfort. A friend recommended Esaias, and after several sessions I’m feeling optimistic for the first time in years. He listens with real empathy and takes time to understand you as a person. My anxiety has eased, and my knees are far more comfortable.”

What to Expect at Your First Appointment
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Your first session begins with a clear, straightforward assessment of what’s going on - including tongue and pulse observation, current symptoms and a short discussion about your health history. This helps form a practical picture of what may be contributing to your discomfort and how to approach treatment.
Treatment is gentle and focused. Many people notice a change in how they feel after the first session - calmer, clearer, or simply more at ease. Each follow-up builds on this, helping things settle and progress steadily.
You’ll leave with:
🟡 A clear understanding of what’s going on

About Me
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Esaias has a calm, steady presence and a depth of understanding that reassured me from the very first appointment…”
I’ve worked with Chinese medicine for over 20 years, supporting people through pain, stress, fatigue and long-standing health issues with careful, steady care.
My approach is simple: understand what’s happening in your system, treat it precisely and support you with a plan that feels manageable and realistic.
People often come to me after trying other approaches and want someone who listens carefully, explains what’s going on and doesn’t rush treatment. Each session is shaped by what your body needs on the day, in a calm environment with gentle, precise acupuncture.
I’m a fully licensed acupuncturist and a member of the British Acupuncture Council (MBAcC).
