About Floraine
I am a member of the British Acupuncture Council (BAcC) having completed my degree training at the College of Traditional Acupuncture in 2005 . I have been practising in Earlsdon since that time - firstly in the high street, then further down the road , at the Earlsdon Acupuncture Rooms which I set up with colleagues. Unfortunately after four years, we had to relocate to work in different rooms in Earlsdon- but we remain closely connected as colleagues, and we still share the Earlsdon Acupuncture Rooms’ umbrella for the purpose of patient cross referral ; For my part I decided to build a separate entrance ground floor clinic at home - well actually I didn’t do it - but one of my patients built the beautiful home clinic space where you can lie and look at the clouds floating by!
I would say that over the years I have maintained a good general practice seeing people with a whole raft of conditions on a physical , emotional or mental level. -I have also done special training in fertility support/ IVF and Obstetric acupuncture. I am happy to treat people of any age , including children and teenagers.
Over the years I have relished my mentorship under the classical acupuncture educator Niki H.Bilton - the learning never stops and in recent years I too have started to become involved in the training of the next generation of acupuncturists ; I teach at the TAA in Leamington, and I love to supervise the third year clinical students . But I tell my patients not to worry that I am going to be come a full time teacher -It is a complete honour to treat my patients and see the profound and far reaching effects of this wonderful system of medicine. I love to witness this every day.
