A sanctuary for health and wellbeing…
Our beautiful, tranquil centre in Bristol is dedicated to supporting, nurturing and restoring health — whatever your stage of life, and whatever challenges you may be facing.
“You are in very safe hands – and that is so important to us here. This is a place that understands both you and your body, and treats the whole self, not just isolated symptoms. Of course we are professionals and experts in our fields – but we are also people who feel passionate about holding others through uncertainty and challenge, and helping you find a way through that is holistic, compassionate and respectful.”
Jill Glover, founder, Alma Vale Centre
We are committed to offering a safe place for you to explore your health concerns, knowing you will be heard, validated and understood.
Our work covers the full spectrum of health concerns — from stress, fatigue, digestive and musculoskeletal issues, to chronic conditions, recovery and mental wellbeing. We also have specialist expertise in women’s health, offering deep knowledge and support through fertility, pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause.

How we can help
Book a free 15-minute discovery call with our director Jill Glover to help you choose the best therapy for your needs. In this call, we want to get to know you – so we’ll ask detailed questions to assess the best treatment options, and you’ll also have the opportunity to ask your own questions and share any concerns.
From there, we’ll make tailored recommendations for treatment, introducing you to modalities you may not have considered, and referring you to an experienced practitioner you can trust. This is the beginning of a journey towards health that feels safe, considered and personal to you.
At the clinic, throughout your treatment and appointments, you’ll find an oasis of calm. This comes not only from soothing music, gentle lighting, essential oils, green plants and comfortable furniture, but also from the warmth of a team that offers compassionate, welcoming care.

Passionate and knowledgeable practitioners…
Our experience
The expertise and experience within our team reflects an approach that is both personal and deeply individual. Our founder Jill Glover and fellow acupuncturist/herbalist Helen Fielding both have over 40 years of experience in Chinese medicine, while the rest of our in-house expertise has been developed and honed over 20 years.
Most importantly, every practitioner here has a specialist field of expertise — and a shared passion for providing truly holistic healthcare.
“Our clinic is filled with lovely, knowledgeable practitioners, experts in their fields, who are passionate about supporting people throughout their lives. Many of us have dedicated decades to advancing women’s health, from menarche to menopause. We believe in the importance of spaces where individuals can feel seen, heard and valued.”
Jill Glover
A specialised centre for excellence in whole-person health…
How is the Alma Vale Centre different?
We treat people, not problems… We meet you where you are — at whatever stage of life or health you’re in. We begin by simply getting to know you: what’s going on in both mind and body, and what you most want from treatment.
We provide a centre for excellence in holistic healthcare, using complementary therapies to support:
- Women’s health (periods and PMT/PMDD, fertility, pregnancy and birth, menopause, endometriosis, pre- and post-natal mental health)
- General health (digestive issues, stress and burnout, musculoskeletal pain, chronic illness, recovery and resilience)
- Emotional wellbeing (mental health, trauma support, mind-body connection)
Often, we will start with one treatment and then deepen our work with referrals to other modalities within the clinic. This is not about one practitioner offering one solution – it’s about being supported by a caring and knowledgeable team who can adapt with you, as your needs evolve.
“There are very few places that truly offer integrated, specialist healthcare – because mainstream approaches often miss the bigger picture. Too often, trials and protocols are standardised without real attention to individual needs. That’s why I know how important it is to have a space where every single practitioner is an expert in their field, treating the whole person with both vast knowledge and compassionate insight.”
