Licensed Acupuncturist in Hertfordshire
My name is Paris, and I'm a fully qualified and licensed acupuncturist based in Hatfield. I trained at the City College of Acupuncture and am a proud member of the British Acupuncture Council, the UK's largest professional body for traditional acupuncturists. Being a member means I work to the highest standards of safety, professionalism and ongoing training, so you can feel confident you're in safe hands.
My journey into acupuncture began during my own pregnancy. I experienced pelvic girdle pain and, as my due date approached, I also chose acupuncture to help encourage the natural onset of labour. The treatment made a real difference to how I felt, and I was fascinated by how something so gentle could have such a positive impact on both my physical and emotional wellbeing. That experience stayed with me long after my daughter was born and planted the seed for a completely new career.
Before becoming an acupuncturist, I worked for many years as a Clinical Social Worker, supporting children, young people and families through difficult and often life-changing circumstances. It was incredibly rewarding work, but it also made me increasingly aware that many people were looking for ways to improve their health that went beyond medication alone. I became particularly interested in holistic, evidence-informed approaches that treat the whole person rather than focusing solely on symptoms.
That curiosity eventually led me to retrain as an acupuncturist.
Today, I combine my healthcare background with traditional acupuncture to provide compassionate, individualised care. I understand that every person's health journey is different, which is why I take the time to listen carefully, understand your concerns and create a treatment plan that's tailored specifically to you.
Alongside my private clinic at Hatfield House, I also work with East and North Trust at Lister Hospital in Stevenage, supporting people through and beyond their cancer treatment. It's a role that I feel incredibly privileged to have and one that continually reinforces the importance of treating every patient with empathy, kindness and respect.
Whether I'm helping someone manage chronic pain, cope with the side effects of cancer treatment, reduce stress or improve their overall wellbeing, my aim is always the same: to help you feel heard, supported and cared for.
I know that choosing a healthcare practitioner is a personal decision, and I want every patient who walks through my door to feel welcome, comfortable and at ease.
If you're considering an acupuncture treatment and would like to find out whether it could help you, I'd be delighted to hear from you.

What do some of our customers say about their acupuncture treatment:
"I have been accessing Lime Tree acupuncture services for over 6 months for pain management and management of other symptoms of my cancer. I have appreciated Paris' holistic approach.
Paris takes a full initial history, a thorough check in at each appointment and ascertains the effectiveness of her treatment. Paris has not only helped me with pain relief, my sleep has improved and I feel in more of a place of acceptance and understanding with my disease.
Paris’ care has been tailored to my individual need and is both for my physical and emotional needs.
I would highly recommend booking appointments with Paris if you need an acupuncturist who is skilled, compassionate and genuinely invested in your well-being".
""I began acupuncture with Paris as part of my recovery after breast cancer at Lister hospital where Paris kindly offers her services.The difference was noticeable after my first session.
It was my first time having Accuputure so I was a little nervous. However, Paris made me feel so at ease. Paris is compassionate, professional, and deeply supportive of my need to ease my symptoms and general well being. Sleep deprivation and hot flashes at night started to ease after my first session. I slept so well! I’m very thankful for this treatment as it has played a significant role in my healing journey. I will be continuing to book sessions with Paris at her private clinic".
