A Rare and Unique Moment
I’ve created a very special day retreat to help you ease into Autumn with one of my favourite local therapists. It’s going to be an intimate gathering and tickets will be very limited.
Our day will be curated around letting go and will include all the usual elements of my day retreats: transitional acupuncture; releasing qi gong, gorgeous food, treats and teas plus sauna and swim AND include a transformational breathwork session plus a walking meditation to help ground and assimilate the day’s work.
Sunday 13th September.
Ease Into Autumn- What's Included
Review Steyning, Spring 2025
Jo gently weaved her knowledge to create a truly special day of self care in a beautiful. rural setting. It was spot on in every way. From the learning to the experiencing and the glorious sauna and lake plunge overlooking the South Downs. So glad I took the day as we come to the end of a long winter.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is group acupuncture

Before treatment Jo takes your full health history via an online form. On the day she'll ask about any current issues such as if you have your period.
Jo then treats you for relaxation and points to help your energy flow from one season to the next.
Treatment is of the same high standard as 1-2-1 sessions following heatlh and safety guidelines as set out by the British Acupuncture council.

Jo teaches very simple Dao Yin Qi gong. Slow meditative movements suitable for complete beginners to seasonal Qi Gongers.
Everyone will get something from the session no matter how experienced they are.
Dao Yin is self healing and non prescriptive with the breath. You can go at your pace and enjoy the gentle movement surrounded in nature.
