I graduated from the NCA in November after taking the three-year BSc in Acupuncture course. I would highly recommend the college to anyone looking for an Acupuncture course. The support and teaching are of a very high quality and the college is always developing - making sure those standards don't slip. The NCA was the start of a new adventure for me and from the moment I stepped into the building I knew I had found somewhere special. I will forever be grateful to all the staff across all the departments for making my experience so wonderful. Life changing in the best possible way! More...

I just graduated in Nov 2023 from the NCA's MSc in Nutrition Science & Practice and had a very positive experience. The tutors and curriculum takes the holistic approach to nutrition that I was looking for in a masters course whilst being heavily grounded in up to date scientific research. Due the pandemic we had to take a lot of our lectures online which was challenging but with the support of the tutors and the cohort we still had a great time. I would recommend this course to anyone wanting to gain an in depth knowledge of nutritional therapy. More...

Pavel is a warm, caring person. He is very knowledgeable and professional. I made an appointment for some treatment for my rotator cuff injury which was very painful.
After 2 treatments my progress is amazing. I highly recommend Tui Na and am grateful to Pavel for making such a difference to my situation.
I look forward to my next appointment in the knowledge I am in good hands!

The Northern College of Acupuncture was one of the best decisions I ever made. I graduated from NCA over 8 years ago and have been running an Acupuncture clinic ever since. I loved my time at NCA, the work, the people, the team, the knowledge, the support were all outstanding. There was never a weekend when I didn't want to go and learn. If anyone was is thinking about studying acupuncture I would highly highly recommend them More...

Pav works magic on sore muscles and bad posture. It's not the most easy, relaxing massage, precisely because it works wonderfully as a medical treatment to soften muscle fibres. So worth booking in to try if you're at all intrigued! More...

Pavel is an incredible therapist, he was attentive to listen to my long standing sports issues and was able to resolve problems in my back and legs through a course of treatment. He also made me very comfortable with his easy-going, friendly personality. I would thoroughly recommend him and encourage others to take a course of treatment to feel the long lasting benefits.

When I needed a new pc power unit, this place came in handy. The knowledge base of places like this is invaluable to the local community.
Update May 2017. Quoted me a reasonable price to fix my partner's broken laptop screen, and stuck to it. Cost less than I thought. Also kept me updated via text during the process.

I have had treatment in the acupuncture clinic for neck problems and tennis elbow. I would highly recommend this treatment, my tennis elbow needed just two sessions to relieve the pain. My neck problems have taken a mixture acupuncture and tuina chinese massage to produce great results, both of these treatments were perfomed with great expertise at the college. More...

tuina massage
Traditional chinese medical massage as practiced in hospitals in China.
Benefits from tuina are both on physiological and psychological level. Tuina generally increases well-being and feeling of euphoria. It can be used for various purposes, from general massage to specific problems. Main focuses are:
• Neck pain, shoulder pain
• Back pain, sciatica
• Low energy, poor circulation
• Headache, migraine
• Digestive disorders, stress and anxiety
• Rheumatism, arthritis and Parkinson’s
• Joint pain or moving pain
• Sports injuries
The massage is performed over sheet over your clothed body. Tuina is usually done using gentle to quite firm pressure using palms, thumbs, fingers, and elbows, added to this are various stretches and rotations.
In China, Tuina practitioner treats conditions, that could be in the West compared to work of osteopaths, chiropractors or physiotherapists.
Reflexology
Reflexology, also known as zone therapy, is an alternative medicine involving application of pressure to the feet and hands with specific thumb, finger, and hand techniques without the use of oil or lotion.
It works on the principle that every organ, system and structure in the body has a corresponding reflex area or zone on the feet. Working on these reflexes restores imbalances in the body and promotes physical, mental and emotional health.
Cupping therapy
Cupping is a type of alternative therapy that originated in China. It involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. The suction facilitates healing with blood flow, as well as the flow of Qi in the body.
Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This relieves muscle tension, which improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair. It also helps to form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a form of heat therapy in which dried plant materials called "moxa" are burned on or very near the surface of the skin. The intention is to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi in the body and dispel certain pathogenic influences.
Moxibustion can be used for example to turn breech babies to increase the chance of natural birth.
Gua Sha
Gua sha is a natural, alternative therapy that involves scraping your skin with a jade stone to improve blood circulation. This ancient Chinese healing technique may offer a unique approach to better health, addressing issues like chronic pain.
Gua sha is intended to address stagnant energy, called Qi, in the body that is believed to be responsible for inflammation. Inflammation is the underlying cause of several conditions associated with chronic pain. Rubbing the skin’s surface is thought to help break up this energy, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.
