Are you seeking a practitioner who's a) Passionate about thoroughly analyzing and researching your case, b) Committed to helping you achieve excellent results, and c) Eager to go the extra mile to ensure every patient is empowered with tools for long-term wellness? You've come to the right place. If pain is holding you back, sleep problems have you frazzled, or women, if it seems your monthly cycles are hijacking your life, a different reality is possible! Helping you reclaim your quality of life is my utmost priority.
Once we begin our work together, you will receive a report of findings which establishes benchmarks, sets goals for your treatments, and allows clear result-tracking. Customized suggestions for herbal medicine, supplements, exercise, nutrition, and other self-care options will assist you in maximizing your treatment outcomes.
I invite you to call and schedule a free phone-consultation. This will help both of us evaluate whether your case and my expertise are a good match. Should we choose to work together, convenient morning, evening, and Saturday appointments are available.

Cathy’s journey in the healing arts began at the tender age of 9, exploring martial arts such as Wing Chun Kung Fu, Qigong, and Tai Chi. This early fascination with body mechanics and movement naturally led her into a career in holistic therapies.

Her Shiatsu journey began in 2014 at the Shiatsu College Hastings, where she graduated in 2017 as the youngest practitioner in her cohort. Cathy’s practice is rooted in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and she continuously expands her knowledge to provide the best care for her clients.

In 2020, Cathy founded Nixon Acupuncture, Shiatsu & Qigong in Rugby, Warwickshire—a tranquil studio offering personalized treatments that combine ancient wisdom with modern techniques.

The methods used at my practice are aimed toward giving the body synergism—not just treating symptoms temporarily or numbing pain with numerous medications. I strive to help the body heal itself from within, by treating the root and not just the branch of a problem. I use a wide variety of modalities that best serve the individual needs of the patient: acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, herbal formulas, Tui Na (Asian Bodywork), and Kinesiotaping. These methods can be integrated with Western approaches as well. Your treatment will be a partnership: discussed, understood, and agreed upon. While a particular procedure may be indicated for specific purposes, I believe the path to health is best navigated complemented by knowledge and awareness of a patient’s needs and goals.
I am a diplomate of the National Certification Commission of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. I received my Master’s degree from AOMA Graduate School of Integrative Medicine, one of the most respected acupuncture schools in the United States. My coursework involved 3,000 hours of study in acupuncture, Chinese herbs and herbal formulas, as well as Western medical training, including over 900 hours of supervised clinical training.
