After 15 years of dedicated service in the field of Chinese medicine, renowned local practitioner Martin John, current President of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine, is proud to announce the opening of The Clinic Frome – a fresh, modern space for acupuncture, herbal medicine, and integrative health services.
The new clinic, located at 16 Palmer Street, brings together Martin’s extensive clinical expertise with a renewed vision for community health.
Martin has provided over 15,000 consultations and treatments to the people of Frome and surrounding areas over the last decade and a half, previously from his long- established clinic in Turnpike House, Bridge Street. With The Clinic Frome, he now takes his practice to the next level, creating a sanctuary for healing, collaboration, and evidence-informed holistic care.
“After years of working closely with my patients and watching the Frome health community evolve, I wanted to build something truly future-facing,” said Martin. “The Clinic Frome is not just about acupuncture and herbal medicine—it’s about integration, innovation, and bringing people together to feel their best.”
As President of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine (RCHM), Martin continues to champion professional standards and advocate for safe, effective herbal practice across the UK. His new clinic reflects that same commitment to excellence, offering Frome a trusted centre for natural healthcare rooted in both tradition and scientific integrity.
Designed with simplicity and warmth in mind, The Clinic Frome offers a calming environment, reflecting Martin’s belief that healing begins the moment you walk through the door. Alongside his own services in Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture, the clinic also welcomes other healthcare professionals, supporting a multidisciplinary approach that puts the patient at the centre.
As health and wellness continue to take centre stage in public consciousness, The Clinic Frome aims to be a beacon for both traditional knowledge and contemporary healthcare thinking – bridging ancient practices with modern lives.

![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
