I am in North Essex. Here is the link to the practitioner search for
your area.

When I called my acupuncturist I was on the phone for over 30 minutes,
as the lady asked loads of questions. Very helpful. So make sure you
feel comfertable with the one you choose. Some of them may practise
chinese herbal medicine as well.
Good luck.
