Lily is extremely knowledgeable and supportive.  I trusted her 100%. As well as acupuncture and Chinese herbs, she provided advice on diet and lifestyle, tailored to my individual health issues.  This enabled me to feel that I was really taking control of my own health problems.  I had tried a very well known Harley St TCM practitioner before and in my opinion Lily’s care far outstripped that of the more well known clinic.

Digestive Problems & Bad Circulation

I was looking for treatments for digestive problems and bad circulation that I'd been getting for more than 25 years. Normal medicine did not help, and I like the philosophical underpinning of Chinese medicine.

My digestive problems and bad circulation have been successfully addressed with Chinese herbs and I feel much better. Lily is very conscientious and systematic in follow up, dedicated and caring."

Stress Related Stomach Pains, Nausea & Back Pain

"My stomach and digestive system problems have developed over the past four to five years in particular to do with stress. My back problems started from an accident at the age of thirteen which have become particularly bad over the past five to six years. Lily has treated me with Acupuncture, Ear Seed Acupressure and Herbal Medicine and I have seen a definite improvement in my stomach issues, particularly with respect to stopping the nausea that usually accompanies all my other symptoms. There has also been a distinct improvement in my moods and general stress levels which I think has helped greatly. The Acupuncture to help relieve my back pain has been stunningly effective!

From the start I have found Lily's attitude, procedures and literature to be of a very professional standard. Given my apprehension at receiving Acupuncture, I was amazed at how quickly I felt comfortable and relaxed during my first session. I have been very pleased with everything that I have seen to date and I feel that the service that I get is already well above average and carried out with a professional hand."

Severe Stomach Pain and Constipation

"I had suffered from severe stomach pain and constipation for two years before coming to see Lily for acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. Lily has helped tremendously, particularly with the constipation. The stomach pain I suffered from is no longer as severe or as frequent. Lily has helped me beyond my expectations, providing dietary recommendations and suggesting other lifestyle changes which have helped me a lot.

I would highly recommend Lily to others interested in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine."

Painful Red Lesions

"I suffer with painful and unsightly raised red lesions on my fingers which has been happening for some time now, possibly for one year plus now. I was desperate to get this treated, no doctors seemed to have any idea what it was or how to treat it. I definitely saw good results with Chinese herbs. Lily has good knowledge and a good manner - she is patient, very friendly, professional, helpful and caring too."

Vitiligo

"For years, I had been referred back and forth across several dermatologists and specialists for a skin problem they eventually diagnosed as vitiligo, a whitening of the skin in several patches throughout my body. These patches had gotten worse over a recent period of stress and I wanted to try something natural that would help my symptoms but also help me feel less stressed. I was given Chinese herbs to boil which dramatically reduced the appearance of the white patches within 6 weeks and eventually returned the skin pigmentation to those areas! My stress levels are now much more manageable and I continue to have monthly consultations with Lily once a month. Thanks for all your help."

Rheumatoid Arthritis & Emotions

"I've been having acupuncture for 25 years so when my regular acupuncturist moved away, I decided to continue my treatments with Lily. The acupuncture and herbal treatments focussed on my rheumatoid arthritis (suffered with this for over 25 years) and also my emotional state after bereavement 6 months prior. I get a general sense of wellbeing from the treatments and helps with me emotionally."

Miscarriage, Ovarian Cyst and Fertility

"Prior to seeing Lily, I had suffered from a miscarriage which resulted in irregular periods.  I also had ovarian cysts over a period of 2-3 months before I had my first appointment with Lily.  

I wanted to try to conceive again following my miscarriage but was advised to put this on hold whilst I waited for the cysts to shrink.  I was advised to wait for 3 months and decided to contact Lily to see if Chinese medicine could shrink the cysts without waiting for the whole 3 months.  I also wanted to get my cycles regular so that I could try again and also to try and stop another miscarriage.

Within 3 months, the ovarian cysts shrank and I had this confirmed by having a scan.  My cycles reverted back to 28 days and I was pregnant within 3 months of starting the Chinese medicine.  I stayed on the medication until I was 17 weeks pregnant which I feel went a long way to help avoid a miscarriage.

I liked the consultations as Lily involved my input into the treatments and we therefore made joint decisions on how to proceed, taking into considering my preferences and also what would be easy for me to achieve/adhere to.  Thanks for all your help Lily."

Fertility & Morning Sickness

"We had been trying for a baby for four months before I decided to book in for an appointment with Lily. I wanted the treatments to balance my hormones to help with fertility but also wanted help for my general wellbeing. During the course of treatment, I received Acupuncture, Ear-seed Acupressure, Moxibustion and Chinese Herbal Medicine. After each session with Lily, I felt more relaxed. She is very professional, approachable and thorough, always explaining clearly what each session would involve. I also found her website very informative and professional. All in all, it has been a very positive experience for me. Now that I am pregnant, I will continue to see Lily to help with the inevitable morning sickness!"

Prolonged Heavy Periods & Tiredness

"For over a year before I saw Lily for acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine I had suffered from prolonged and heavy periods and tiredness - I'd lost my spark! I was encouraged to make my first appointment from the professional website. Lily's treatments were always very comfortable. Her whole personality and demeanor meant that I opened up to her very quickly and yet she was still very professional. All the ailments I visited Lily for improved significantly."
