Magdalena Whitehead
Lic. Ac. MBAcC
I am a dedicated traditional acupuncturist practicing in clinics located in Flitwick, Steppingley Gardens and Maulden. With a prior career spanning 16 years in corporate market research, my acupuncture journey commenced during my first pregnancy, where I discovered the profound benefits of this gentle approach, fundamentally altering my perspective on health and its holistic management.
This transformation spurred my transition into a new career, one that enables me to offer the wisdom of a 3000-year-old healing system and bring impactful changes to your health and well-being. Collaborating with my patients, I am deeply committed to uncovering their health concerns. My treatments not only target symptoms but also address underlying causes, aiming to facilitate transformations in physical, emotional, and mental health.
My practice encompasses a wide spectrum of conditions, including musculoskeletal issues, headaches, migraines, chronic fatigue, IBS with a particular focus on mental and emotional wellbeing (covering stress, anxiety, depression, and grief), and women's health, including gynaecological and menstrual concerns, fertility, and hormonal transitions of menopause.
In addition to traditional acupuncture, I hold qualifications in Moxibustion, Cupping, Gua-sha and Electroacupuncture incorporating these additional modalities with care as part of the treatment process.
Moreover, I offer Cosmetic Acupuncture, also referred to as Facial Acupuncture or Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture, as well as Microneedling, as a complementary therapeutic method for naturally enhancing skin appearance.
As a member of the British Acupuncture Council, I strictly adhere to their Codes of Safe Practice and Professional Conduct, providing assurance of ethical and professional standards. Furthermore, British Acupuncture Council members are registered with the Professional Standards Authority, a government body responsible for regulating health and social care providers, thereby ensuring accountability to Parliament.
My clinics are licensed by Central Bedfordshire Council and I maintain comprehensive medical malpractice and public/products liability insurance coverage, offering peace of mind to all those seeking my care.
Your well-being is my utmost priority, and I look forward to guiding you on your path to health and balance.
