Meet Claire
Practicing in Koh Samui since 2025
Claire trained at Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, one of China's leading TCM institutions, where she completed both her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in acupuncture and herbal medicine. That formal grounding, combined with five years of daily clinical practice, gives her a wide range of techniques to match each treatment to the person in front of her.

Most patients who walk through the door are dealing with some mix of shoulder tension, neck stiffness, or lower back pain that has been building for months or years. Many also mention they cannot sleep well, feel mentally drained, or struggle with digestion that never quite settled. Claire sees these patterns every day. Her clinical focus sits right at the intersection: pain relief, insomnia, digestive health, anxiety, and emotional wellbeing. She also offers a structured smoking cessation protocol for anyone ready to quit.
Nearly half the patients she treats are trying acupuncture for the first time. Being able to describe your symptoms in your own words -- in Thai, Chinese, or English -- without searching for translations makes the consultation more accurate and the treatment more effective. If this is new to you, you are in experienced and patient hands.

How we practice TCM
Treat the root cause
Most of our patients have been dealing with their condition for over a year before they walk through our door. We look past the obvious symptoms to find the underlying imbalance. When you address the root, the symptoms resolve and stay gone.
Whole person care
You might come in for back pain but also mention poor sleep and constant overthinking when we ask. That is not a coincidence. Your pain, emotions, sleep, and digestion are all connected. We assess the full picture before recommending treatment.
No unnecessary sessions
We will tell you honestly how many sessions you need. If one treatment is enough, we will say so. The goal is to get you better, not keep you coming back.
First Visit
What to expect
Nearly half our patients are trying acupuncture for the first time. Here is how your first session works.
Consultation
Claire reviews your health history, checks your pulse and tongue, and asks about pain, sleep, stress, and digestion. This takes about 20 minutes.
Treatment
Based on her assessment, Claire selects the right combination of acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, or acupressure. Most patients relax deeply or fall asleep.
Your Plan
Before you leave, Claire explains what she found, how many sessions she recommends, and what you can do at home. No pressure, no upsell.
