What patients say
Autoimmune issues
“I have an autoimmune disease that flares regularly and decided to try acupuncture with Barbara. She was highly professional with great attention to detail and really easy to talk to. I felt confident in her clinical knowledge and skills and she always made me feel very comfortable during treatments. I am happy to say that my condition has become much less volatile after a course of treatment with Barbara and would not hesitate to recommend her.”

Stress
“I went to see Barbara to help me deal better with stress and anxiety. Immediately just being in her presence I feel calmer and more relaxed. I was open to seeing if acupuncture helped and it really has, it’s hard to put into words; I just feel better, happier, more open, lighter and less fearful of situations. More equipped to deal with life in general. I go back for top up sessions to build on the initial work we have done. I feel this gives a deeper rooted change in me that lasts.
One of the lovely things about seeing Barbara is how cared for you feel. It’s more holistic than acupuncture, it’s about being asked how you’re feeling and having the time and safe space in which to pause and answer openly. It’s quite lovely!”— LS, Chef
Hay fever
“I suffer terribly with itchy eyes and sneezing all through spring. A friend recommended Barbara to me, and although I thought acupuncture was a long shot, I’m so pleased I tried it! The relief was almost instantaneous and it’s wonderful to know I’ve got a natural way of dealing with my hay fever. Barbara is a wonderful practitioner and I always leave our sessions feeling refreshed and energised.”

Menopausal issues
“After two years of ill health I started treatment with Barbara and my life began to change. My aches, pains, hot flushes and sleep all improved. The biggest surprise was the overall feeling of wellbeing I gained. My mood began to lift and my energy shifted. I cannot advocate this line of therapy enough. It was made all the better by Barbara, her calm professional and insightful way of treating was wonderful and I am forever grateful our paths crossed.”

Anxiety & insomnia
“Following a stressful period in my life I wasn’t sleeping well at all. I felt tired and anxious most of the time. I decided to do a course of Acupuncture with Barbara for 3 months and have to say I feel like a different person. At first I really didn’t like the idea of needles but was amazed at how small they are and surprised that I barely felt a thing. Barbara has a very calming and kind manner and I would highly recommend her. It’s such a welcome relief to be sleeping well and just feeling myself again.”

Migraines
“Barbara is a skilled practitioner and a great listener. She clearly knows her subject well and I am always fascinated by her explanations of Chinese Medicine. Having suffered with migraines since I was a teenager I am so grateful for how acupuncture has helped…I’m now pretty much headache free! What’s more I feel more energised, focused, am sleeping better and my mood is much more stable. I continue to see Barbara for treatment once every few months to keep things balanced and really look forward to our sessions.”
