# Clare Spicknell Acupuncture

Clare Spicknell operates a traditional acupuncture practice from two serene clinic locations in Kettering and Corby, offering evidence-based Chinese medicine to local patients seeking natural healthcare solutions.

Clare holds a Professional Licentiate in Acupuncture, a three-year degree qualification from The Acupuncture Academy, accredited by the British Acupuncture Accreditation Board, where she was commended for her clinical work. Her training encompassed comprehensive Chinese medical theory with particular expertise in the five element approach—a holistic methodology that addresses not just presenting symptoms but the individual as a whole.

What distinguishes Clare's practice is her commitment to professional standards and patient safety. She maintains membership with the British Acupuncture Council, adheres to their codes of safe practice and professional conduct, and is registered with the Professional Standards Authority, a government-regulated body accountable to Parliament. Her clinic holds appropriate licensing from North Northants District Council and carries full medical malpractice and public/products liability insurance.

This combination of formal qualifications, professional regulation, and insurance coverage provides patients with confidence in receiving safe, standardised care. Rather than treating conditions in isolation, Clare's five element approach considers how presenting health problems connect to broader wellbeing, making her particularly suitable for patients seeking comprehensive, person-centred acupuncture treatment.
