I’m Melanie Hackwell, a licensed acupuncturist. I work with individuals and couples across London through my clinics in Bethnal Green, Clapham, Euston and Streatham Hill, offering acupuncture that complements both natural and medically assisted fertility journeys. 

I bring not only years of clinical training, but also my own lived experience, to the work I do.
