Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

"I've experienced problems with my stomach for a few years and was diagnosed with IBS. I'’d found it difficult to pinpoint exactly what it is that worsens the symptoms of IBS so when someone recommended I try acupuncture, I contacted Lily. I'’ve also had problems with my sinuses and nosebleeds for about 8 years so I decided to try acupuncture to see if improvements could also be made in this area.

My acupuncture treatments (together with Moxibustion) started off on a weekly basis and improvements were definitely seen with my stomach problems. In terms of my sinuses, I was told the problem was likely to be structural by my doctor so although this couldn'’t be treated as such, the nosebleeds stopped completely with Lily'’s treatments!

As well as the acupuncture, Lily also gave me suggestions to improve my lifestyle and diet and has taught me to relax more- which helps ease my IBS symptoms.

The treatments are performed very professionally and with a lot of care, and the environment in the room is very relaxed and peaceful. Overall, I would highly recommend Lily to anyone in terms of both her professional and personal skills. The whole experience is made relaxing and enjoyable by Lily as well as helping with your health issues. Thank you Lily!"

Irritable Bowel Syndrome

"I had read about Chinese medicine and after speaking with Lily and finding out that she specialised in my condition, I decided to try it for my IBS which I had been suffering from for 4 months.

Lily gave me Acupuncture and Moxibustion treatments for my condition and I experienced pain relief and a calming effect which also relieved the stress of my condition. The moxibustion proved to be very effective."

Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)

"I had been suffering from RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) for six months before coming to see Lily. As part of my job I spend a large amount of my time using computers and so the RSI was really starting to become a problem for me. I had heard that Acupuncture was particularly effective for RSI and so decided to try it for the first time. I was very impressed with Lily's treatments as she was very gentle and happy to answer my many questions. As well as Acupuncture, Lily suggested that Moxibustion would be effective. I was quite skeptical at first to have the treatment but found it to actually be quite relaxing.

After only a couple of treatments I noticed that the pain was much reduced and after a few more the pain had totally gone. Lily also suggested changes in my working habits to stop the RSI returning, and I am thankful to say that so far I am free of RSI!. Thank you 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!"
