Maggie Bavington - Acupuncture & Shiatsu in East London
I offer traditional Acupuncture, Shiatsu (Japanese bodywork) and pre-prepared Chinese herbal remedies. I have been practising both the Five Element and Traditional Chinese Medicine/Eight Principle styles of acupuncture for ten years. The style of Shiatsu I practise, Zen Shiatsu, was developed in Japan by Shizuto Masunaga. You can read more about these therapies on the About Acupuncture and About Shiatsu pages of this website.

I have extensive clinical experience of using acupuncture and shiatsu to support people with a wide range of health problems. My particular interest is in women's health, including fertility problems and I am a member of the Acupuncture Fertility Network. There is conclusive research evidence that acupuncture can improve success rates for couples going through fertility treatment such as IVF, ICSI and IUI.

Limehouse Homeopathy
My Limehouse practice is conveniently close to Canary Wharf and my Islington practice is at the Healthy Living Centre near Highbury Corner. Both are well located with excellent transport links. My clients come from Isle of Dogs, Hackney, Bethnal Green and Bow, Haringey, Islington, Walthamstow, Essex and beyond!

You may be seeking a local homeopath because you are already familiar with the benefits of homeopathic treatment. Maybe you have heard about the safety and effectiveness of homeopathy for a wide range of conditions, and want to find out more. Perhaps you want to try home prescribing, or find a link to a product that I have recommended.

I hope that my website will provide answers to whatever question you have in mind.

Hypnobirthing 4 U
HypnoBirthing® is a method of childbirth, which is much a philosophy of birth as it is a technique for achieving a satisfying, relaxing and stress free birth.  The mother-to-be and her birth companion join our education programme during her pregnancy to learn the techniques we teach so that she can experience a pleasant and unique labour.  Many mothers have even said that as well as feeling relaxed, they have also experienced a pain free labour. 

It has returned to women their right to call upon their natural birthing instincts, creating one of the most memorable experiences of their lives.
