My aim as a therapist is to treat each client as an individual and tailor the treatment required to their specific needs. I look at what is happening on the “whole” rather than just treating the symptoms. This approach is taking the mind, body and spirit into account therefore achieving better results for the client.
Hi my name is Melanie...
Hi, I’m Melanie, a therapist with over 16 years of experience supporting clients through a blend of traditional and complementary therapies. My main clinic is based in the Louis Pearlman Centre on Goulton Street in Hull, where I specialise in Acupuncture as my primary treatment approach.
Creating a space where clients feel safe, supported, and truly listened to is at the heart of my work. Every treatment is tailored to the individual, and I take time to understand what each person needs in order to feel comfortable and cared for.
Over the years, I’ve worked across a variety of healthcare settings. I previously spent six months as part of the NHS Pain Management Team, supporting patients with complex, long-term conditions. Before that, I worked at Nuffield Health Centre and at an Integrative Health Centre in Lincoln, treating patients with acupuncture within a multidisciplinary team.
Alongside running my clinic, I now work one day a week at Health Inc in Cottingham, integrating acupuncture into a chiropractic-led environment to enhance whole-person care.
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Acupuncture from the Northern College of Acupuncture (2018) and have since gained my Chinese Herbal Medicine Practitioner Certificate. I’m a member of the Association of Acupuncture Clinicians (AAC) and fully licensed with Hull City Council, meeting all professional and regulatory standards.

I suffer from Psoriatic Arthritis, which badly affects my skin and joints. When I first came to Mel, I really struggled with fatigue, joint pain and severe psoriasis.
Thanks to a combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs and Mel's healing nature, I am now well on the road to recovery. Mel is very knowledgeable, caring, and her therapy room is an oasis of well-needed calm.

I suffered from neck and back pain for 2 years before I got help from Melanie. It’s the best decision I ever made, I regularly go for acupuncture, and I no longer suffer. I love going for relaxation and keeping the pain at bay. I find it so relaxing, it’s the highlight of my week. I would recommend acupuncture to anyone.

I’ve been coming here for the best part of a year to help with endometriosis-related symptoms. She’s definitely helped me to improve this condition.
Melanie is so professional and knowledgeable with her treatments and conditions and creates a very
calming atmosphere. I’ve tried both acupuncture and reflexology and I love both of these, would highly recommend!
