# Acupuncture Taunton: Anna Jolly

Anna Jolly is an experienced acupuncturist and traditional Chinese medicine practitioner based in Kingston St Mary, near Taunton, Somerset. With over three decades of therapeutic experience and a 4-year BSc Honours degree in Acupuncture, Anna offers a comprehensive range of evidence-based treatments rooted in authentic Chinese medicine principles.

She specialises in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture, Five Element acupuncture, and Master Tung style techniques, alongside Tui Na—traditional Chinese therapeutic massage. What distinguishes her practice is her particular expertise in paediatric acupuncture, treating patients from infancy through childhood.

Anna integrates complementary techniques including moxibustion, guasha, and cupping to enhance treatment outcomes. She also practises Yang Sheng—the art of 'nourishing life'—offering dietary and lifestyle guidance rooted in traditional Chinese nutritional wisdom to support her treatments and promote long-term wellbeing.

As a member of The British Acupuncture Council, Anna maintains professional standards and ethical practice. Her approach combines classical acupuncture knowledge with specialised paediatric training, making her particularly valuable for families seeking natural healthcare solutions. Whether addressing chronic pain, supporting children's health, or enhancing overall wellness through dietary consultation, Anna provides personalised, holistic care tailored to individual needs.
