Melanie Gleeson Lee Whitstable and Margate - Whitstable

Melanie is a wonderful acupuncturist and therapist. I was so nervous about trying acupuncture and she put me immediately at ease with her gentle approach and genuine care. Since starting with her 6 months ago, I have worked on a couple of key issues and have seen results in my thoughts, actions and feelings. Whilst the acupuncture doesn't fix the issues themselves, nor Melanie try and solve them for me, she and the sessions have given me the insights, grounding and energy reserves to work through them myself. I always come away from a session feeling relaxed and refreshed. Absolutely recommend, wish I could go more!

I’m new to acupuncture and wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. But Melanie came so highly recommended by people I trust that I decided to give it a try. I’ll admit I was a little sceptical — but meeting Melanie, and being treated by her, has been nothing short of amazing. And now I genuinely can’t recommend her enough.

Melanie is one of those rare practitioners who blends deep expertise with a grounded, calming, and personable presence that instantly puts you at ease. From the very first session, I felt safe, listened to, and understood — something that can be hard to find when you’re seeking support with complex or long-standing health issues.

There’s an incredible intuitiveness to the way she works; she doesn’t just follow a formula — she senses what your body and mind need, and responds to that. Her treatments have helped me in ways I never could have expected — physically, yes, but also in terms of stress, sleep, and just feeling more in balance. I always leave feeling lighter, more settled, and more like myself — with a sense that something has gently started to realign.

I’m looking forward to seeing what unfolds over the next few sessions.

I have known Mélanie for 18 years as a friend and also an amazingly intuitive, precise and successful acupuncturist.
Melanie’s expertise has saved me many times , when I was in need , stressed and anxious due to mental trauma.
She has helped me and my family to feel centered and calm again, confident and has been able to ground me , every time , when in crisis.
I would highly recommend her treatments , on a physical or spiritual level.

I have been having regular sessions with Melanie over the past few months which has been a complete game changer for me mentally, physically and emotionally. As an absolute beginner to Acupuncture I was unaware just how beneficial it can be for your mind, body and soul. I will be keeping this as part of my ongoing self care - thank you Melanie for the work you have done, and are yet to do for me, you wonderful woman ❤️

I’d never had acupuncture before but having heard so many amazing things about it, I decided to give it a try. I had no clue what to expect but instantly felt comfortable with Melanie. She’s a brilliant listener, very compassionate and has a great energy about her - she’s a real gem and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!

Having never had acupuncture, I wasn’t sure what to expect other than what a friend had told me about her experience with Melanie. She’d said ‘it will change your life’. I couldn’t quite imagine how that would be the case, but it’s actually true. The treatment itself introduced sensations to my body I had never felt before, but what’s special about Melanie, is the talking that comes before the treatment. Being able to discuss how I am feeling, emotionally and physically brings another element to our sessions that deepens the relationship between my mind and body in ways I didn’t even know was possible. I am actively learning how to deal with life in a whole new way, and through that process, finding my way back to myself. That’s not always easy but it’s worth it and I’m hugely grateful to Melanie for guiding me through it. I could not recommend her more.

Mel has been more than an acupuncturist to me over the last few years, she has also been that pillar of strength that I have needed from time to time! I have made a lot of progress in my own self development since starting acupuncture with Mel and I cannot thank her enough for always going above and beyond. I would recommend her services to anyone.

I cannot recommend Melanie highly enough! With over 30 years of experience, she brings a wealth of knowledge and an incredible depth of understanding to her acupuncture practice. Melanie has an extraordinary grasp of how this magick works — not just on a physical level, but on an emotional, energetic, and spiritual level as well.

She’s wonderfully down to earth, easy to talk to, and has a brilliant sense of humour that makes every session feel relaxed and uplifting. What’s truly special about Melanie is how she just gets you — you don’t need to explain everything in detail; she intuitively knows what you need and how to help.

Her blend of expertise, intuition, and warmth makes every treatment a genuinely transformative experience. If you’re looking for someone with unmatched skill, wisdom, and heart, Melanie is the one you want by your side.
