Read MoreI had been suffering with bad pain in my jaw for about 10 years which was worse through the wintertime. I had medication (Carbamazepine) from my GP, I wanted to see if acupuncture would help.
Also I have diverticulitis and tried to eat sensibly, especially more roughage. I wanted advice on relief of the symptoms. I can’t believe how much the treatment helped. I had acupuncture 3 times I think, and noticed the difference in my jaw, and the advice I was given for my stomach has helped a great deal. Marvellous. I haven’t taken any tablets for nearly 2 years. Lily was such a lovely person and made me feel very relaxed and confident.

Read MoreAfter having a baby I developed really poor posture, which led to me to experience very bad back pain and tight muscles. A family member recommended cupping to relieve some the tension in my back. Cupping really relieved the tightness in my back and the hints and tips that Lily provided me with to help correct my posture were so useful.

Read MoreI have decided to go through the menopause naturally and was looking for ways to help me manage my symptoms. I also have 3 prolapsed disc, which do give me problems periodically and which I’ve used physiotherapy and osteopathy for previously. Following a recommendation I booked in for some Acupuncture. My hot flushes decreased, my energy levels improved, advised to drink peppermint tea as it was more cooling than ginger and lemon. My radiating lower back pain improved, which gave me a better nights sleep. I am a health care assistant so I need to be in good health myself.

Read MoreHaving seen various practitioners of Chinese medicine and other natural treatments over many years in London (Harley Street, Neal's Yard etc.), I was looking for someone good nearer to where I now live. I thoroughly researched local treatment clinics and came across Lily. I was immediately impressed with her credentials and ultimately absolutely delighted with her professionalism and warm manner when I eventually met with her for treatment. She managed to resolve the issues I took to her within two sessions. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others and will definitely see her again for any future issues I may have in the future.

Read MoreI suffer from stiff/heavy shoulders, back pain and headaches. I had a 60-minute acupuncture session and found it to be very good. At the time of receiving the treatment, the main pain of my shoulder had eased off but the treatment seemed to stop another flare up coming up for quite a while. In addition to the physical treatment given, Lily also suggested some exercises to try and some websites that can assist with stress reduction. Lovely surroundings, lovely lady, definitely revisit when I can.

Read More"After my pregnancy finished and I stopped breastfeeding, my endometriosis symptoms returned and I was experiencing heavy, irregular and painful periods. I had used acupuncture previously when going through IVF and came to Lily when we moved from London to the local area. We were hoping to conceive again and I wanted a practitioner who was an expert in fertility and treating pregnant women.
I began seeing Lily every couple of weeks and at various times of my cycle and have been seeing her since 2015. She immediately put me at ease and her qualifications and expertise are second to none. Her care was very helpful. Even a small number of sessions with Lily regulated my cycle. I fell pregnant quickly when we began trying to conceive, but unfortunately experienced three consecutive miscarriages. Lily again helped my cycle return to normal after the miscarriages and then supported me in my current successful pregnancy (currently 31 weeks).
Lily is an outstanding practitioner. I would recommend her (and have done) to anyone whose needs have not been met with treatment using Western medicine."

Read More"Approximately 5-6 years ago I developed an oral Lichen Planus condition and more recently this developed into Lichen Planopilaris / Graham Little Syndrome. Predominant symptom being intense itching over the whole body. Eventual result has been loss of most body hair, loss of eyebrows and eyelashes and hair thinning on the scalp. It is not clear what caused the onset of the condition.
Additionally since childhood I have suffered from severe allergic reactions to pollen (grass/trees), moulds, dust, animal hair, insect bites etc - hayfever, urticaria, anaphyaxsis
Due to the above and the fact that I also have an under-active thyroid I decided to try acupuncture to treat the itching and potentially stimulate self heeling process. Aiming to slow down the progression of the hair loss which with Lichen Planopilaris is permanent.
The sessions I had helped initially to reduce the itching and eventually reducing it to almost nothing which reduces the reliance on the steroid treatments."

Read More"We came to Lily after 4 unsuccessful IVf cycles and unexplained infertility. I was due to start 5th IVF cycle and wanted to give my body the best chance.
Lily was extremely knowledgeable, very calming and helpful. It helped me to relax and feel informed for my IVF treatment. Even though IVF was unsuccessful, my time with Lily was invaluable. It was like therapy , relaxation and she understood the jargon from my notes and was able to really advise and explain things clearly to me. "

Cupping works really well! It alleviates the pain and helps to undo ''knots'' and release trigger points. Thanks Lily!"

Read More"I suffer from a bad back and when I fell pregnant it got to the point I was in agony. Someone suggested I try acupuncture and after one session I felt very relaxed. Unfortunately I then had a holiday and couldn't have another session in a short space of time and think this would have helped. Due to pregnancy hormones I couldn't return for another session as my back got so bad I couldn't drive.
Lily was amazing, very informative and attentive. She explained everything and made me feel very relaxed as I was nervous to start since I had not received acupuncture before.
Lily was also most helpful with helping find alternative arrangements when I was unable to get to her. She researched other people I could try which I think is amazing.
I will definitely be returning for more treatment once my baby has arrived."

Read More"I have been to see Lily on 2 separate occasions.
The first time was a couple of years ago due to feeling stressed, anxious and generally overwhelmed for a while. I had tried various natural therapies and had heard good things about acupuncture so thought I'd give it a try.
I then came to see Lily again 2 years later, around a year aged having my first son, due to hormonal imbalances causing lots of allergies. Within 2 sessions all of my symptoms had completely gone! Again,
Lily is very friendly and welcoming and straight away made me feel comfortable. She offered lots of other advice during my consultation to try and incorporate alongside my acupuncture treatments. "

Read More"I can honestly say that for me accupuncture has changed my life!
Prior to treatment I felt unwell every day. I was finding the symptoms for a sinus problem very difficult to deal with every day. I tried every option I could think of. Even having surgery! When surgery failed I felt very deflated and thought there wouldn't be an end to it. I gave accupuncture a go as I was desperate and had exhausted all other options.
To my astonishment my symptoms began to go. After a course of accupuncture I felt amazed at how much better I was feeling. I am now able to keep symptoms at bay with an annual booster session as required. Treatments are relaxing and in a comfortable calm environment. I can not thank Lily enough and feel so grateful for all you have done for me. Thank you!!"
