Profile and Qualifications

Rachael Forrest

I qualified as an acupuncturist in 2000, after 4 years of study and supervised clinical practice at the Northern College of Acupuncture in York (www.chinese-medicine.co.uk). 

I set up the Natural Fertility Centre (www.thenaturalfertilitycentre.com) in 2006 to offer a more comprehensive service and support network to couples, men and women.  

I also enjoy working with people with sports related injuries or arthritis as the benefits of acupuncture can sometimes be immediate and profound.

I have built on my general experience with courses of further study such as Advanced Needling Techniques.

I absolutely enjoy my acupuncture practice.   Not only is it a rewarding and fullfilling job but I thrive on meeting so many new people and being able to help them overcome some of the difficulties they face.

I qualified in Maya Abdominal Massage (www.arvigomassage.com) in May 2007 and have attended specialist fertility training workshops by Zita West (www.zitawest.com) as well conferences on fertility (www.naturechild.co.uk and www.afc.com)
