Welcome to My Practice

Hello, I’m Kate Freemantle, an experienced acupuncturist and Chinese herbal medicine practitioner based in Christchurch, Dorset. With nearly 20 years of clinical experience, I support patients with a wide range of health concerns, offering safe, effective, and personalised treatments.

I Offer Fertility & Non-Fertility Treatments

Over the years, I have found that my practice has naturally expanded beyond fertility, although this specialism remains a significant part of what I do. Many patients initially come to me for fertility support and later seek help for other aspects of their health, as well as for other family members, both young and old. As a result, my work has grown to encompass a wide range of conditions at all life stages, and I continue to deepen my knowledge to provide the best possible care.

As part of the Fertility Support expert team, I work with a network of specialists dedicated to compassionate, informed fertility care. Through my studies and hands-on experience—including time in some of London’s leading fertility clinics—I’ve developed a deep understanding of reproductive health. I now bring this expertise to my practice in Dorset, offering both in-person treatments and online support.

I combine the wisdom of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine with modern healthcare insights, tailoring each treatment to the person in front of me. Whether you're navigating fertility challenges or looking to improve your overall well-being, my goal is to provide thoughtful, effective support.
