Syston Community Acupuncture
Syston Community Acupuncture is a pop-up clinic that will be running on the first Wednesday of each month, having started at the beginning of March. The clinic is based at the Community Centre and is run by Sandra Linnett & Caroline Challender. Both qualified in Acupuncture around ten years ago, having trained together at The Acupuncture Academy in Leamington Spa. They hold the Licentiate in Acupuncture qualification (equivalent to degree-level) and belong to the Association of Acupuncture Clinicians (AAC) as a professional body.
Both Sandra & Caroline have been working in private practice since qualifying but have long been interested in working together on a project such as this. “Our aim is to create a friendly, welcoming, professional environment in which we can offer acupuncture at an affordable price. We can do this by treating more than one person at a time, but we aim to ensure that each person receives our full attention and a treatment that is tailor-made for them”.
Prior to the acupuncture clinic which opens at 10am, Caroline will be running a 30 minute Qi Gong class, starting at 9.30am. Qi Gong is a low-impact, gentle exercise that is easy to follow and accessible for most people. It combines breathwork with flowing movements of the arms with the objective of helping energy to circulate better within the body. At the end of a session, people tend to feel very relaxed and calm, with a renewed sense of vitality. No previous experience is needed, and the class welcomes all newcomers.
Caroline and Sandra would love to see you at the clinic and/or in the Qi Gong class. “The first session received very positive feedback, and we now need to spread the word. These therapies were developed in ancient times but are just as relevant to our lives today. Do come and try. We’re sure you will feel better for it!”
