"Arriving to see Jessica
I was exhausted, depressed and had
low self-esteem. Childhood issues were still
brewing in my mind and present day troubles getting too much
for me to bear. With an intensive course, my life quickly
changed, with clarity and motivation pushed back inside me
through tiny needle holes giving me the strength to tackle
my hectic life and change the things that were getting me
down. This year has been the best
year of my work life and I have had the courage to take on
larger challenges that has brought my life to new
levels. As life is on going my little trips to see Jessica
keep me focused and allows me to look deeply into myself
without fear."

"On hitting 30 I started to
suffer from acne vulgaris and spent
the last 3 years on and off antibiotics, which
did not seem to work effectively. I was also suffering from
stress at work, so decided to try alternative medicine.
After a few sessions with Jessica, my skin had improved and
I felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders
with regard to my work stresses. I now see
Jessica once every 6 weeks, just to keep myself in-check.
She has a friendly and informative approach, so I feel very
relaxed during the sessions. I would certainly recommend her
to my family, friends and colleagues."
An
administrator in her 30s
"I had never had acupuncture
before, had never considered it and was very nervous before
my first session. I have found the
experience to be very beneficial and as soon as I got
through the door I was made to feel at ease. I
have had treatment for a number of symptoms and have had a
helpful and, at times, a quite profoundly positive outcome.
I would recommend acupuncture and I would certainly
recommend Jessica."
A catering
manager in his 30s
"I have always wanted to go
for acupuncture and was really pleased when a friend
recommended Jessica. I went to her to work on a variety of
things, not least of which was my annual summer allergies.
This year, my allergies have been worse than ever. I work on
music festivals which means I spend a lot of time in grassy
fields over the summer. With
chronic allergies, I was really struggling to do my job.
After seeing Jessica three times, I saw a massive
improvement. After a few further sessions, I can honestly
say that I haven't had an allergy attack for weeks.
In addition to alleviating my allergy
problems, I also feel that acupuncture has brought me more
peace and well being than I have felt in ages. Jessica
is very professional but at the same time she makes you feel
very comfortable and relaxed with the process. I would
recommend an acupuncture session with Jessica to anyone!"
An event
manager in her 30s
"I would say that you offer
very professional and holistic treatment, that my
musculoskeletal problems responded very well and that
I felt better than I had for years
in terms of energy levels and my general constitutional
health."
A doctor in
her early 40s
"For about 18 months
my back had been achy and stiff
after exercise, and much less limber than
before. It got to the point where it was holding me back
from doing as much exercise as I wanted, and my Tai Chi
teacher suggested acupuncture. Acupuncture hasn't sorted it
out completely, but it's better than it was, less painful
and a bit more flexible. Overall
it doesn't bother me now like it did before."
A retired
engineer in his 60s
"Acupuncture was recommended
to me by my chiropractor, who was treating me for back and
neck problems brought on by being stuck at my desk. I found
Jessica through a web search for local practitioners.
Jessica ran through an extensive questionnaire with me and
identified several conditions that she could help with.
My neck and back symptoms started
to ease after my first treatment, and subsequent
sessions, together with my chiropractor, have finally seen
the end of almost constant pain. The two approaches to
treating the symptoms have really complemented each other
and have ensured a speedy recovery from a long-term problem.
Of all of my conditions/ailments,
the treatments to ease the symptoms of PCOS have had the
most incredible results. My PCOS caused extremely
heavy and painful periods which have always been part of an
unusually long cycle. After just 2
treatments, Jessica had eased the pain enough that I didn't
need painkillers, and had reduced my cycle to a regular 28
days, not to mention eased or eradicated many
other PCOS-related symptoms. I can't recommend this
treatment highly enough! Jessica takes an extremely
professional and warm approach to her treatments. She's very
keen to ensure you understand how acupuncture works, and is
very patient when asked the same questions over and over. If
you're after a friendly and holistic approach to your
health, look no further."
A project
director in her 30s
"I had always been cynical
about alternative medicine and was just quite happy to take
painkillers and medication, until they stopped working and
were no longer able to cure my
stomach pains caused by IBS. A friend recommended
Jessica and I decided to try it. It was amazing! I couldn’t
believe it. The minute Jessica
started putting the needles in, I could feel the tension in
my stomach easing. Those were the short-term
signs that the treatment was working, but after a few months
I have noticed changes in many other areas that had problems
I wasn’t even aware of! There is so much that can be treated
with acupuncture and no one even knows! The best thing about
Jessica is that she has such a wealth of knowledge and seems
to know how to deal with anything. And she is just so kind
you feel totally comfortable talking to her about your
problems. Seriously, give it a go!"
An event
manager in her 20s
"When I first came to see
Jessica I was a wreck. I had been through my first round of
IVF treatment at a top London clinic, having acupuncture
with a different practitioner alongside the treatment. I had
had a miscarriage at 7 weeks and a lot of things had just
gone wrong in my life as well.
Jessica was like a breath of fresh air. She took
all those worries and upsets away with her calm, kind and
understanding nature. But more importantly
she set to work at treating me as a
whole rather than simply focusing on building up my womb
lining again ready for
the next round of IVF. For me, this was a
completely new approach to acupuncture and a fascinating
learning curve as to how amazing and powerful the treatment
is. Gradually I began to feel better in myself, and after a
few months of weekly treatments, as I felt my energy levels
increase, I embarked on my second round of IVF, this time
through my local NHS hospital. I was so much more relaxed as
I felt "human" again, something I
had not felt in a long time. Jessica had sorted out so many
health issues that I had lived with believing them to be
normal. I continued seeing Jessica throughout my
treatment and, was very excited to discover that
my womb lining was super thick -
much better than the previous time - and I believe it was
this factor, that enabled our little embryo to attach and
become viable. I am now 19 weeks pregnant and
still having monthly treatments, only because I believe in
the power of acupuncture and how important it is in
maintaining a sense of wellbeing. Jessica has totally
converted me to acupuncture for any ailment, but I am
eternally grateful for the support and the part she played
in creating this new life."

"I thought my
knee problem would stop
me running the marathon, but acupuncture got me there! My
physio suggested acupuncture for the ITB syndrome in my
knee, which was giving me sharp pain after only 20 minutes
running, to the point where I couldn't run any further. The
acupuncture treatments extended how long I could run, and
after seven treatments I ran the
marathon in 4.5 hours without even a twinge from
my knee."
A doctor in

“I found myself in the
unfortunate position of needing
fertility treatment and I wanted to give myself
the best possible chance of conceiving, so decided to try
acupuncture. I was delighted at the
immediate impact it made – I had been recording my
temperature and in the first month of receiving acupuncture
my temperature charts showed a dramatic positive change
(nice smooth temperature charts!). And best of all - I got
pregnant first try! I also found the sessions
provided a nice outlet for the inevitable stress of
fertility treatment – Jessica is a great listener. I would
arrive for my sessions a battered London commuter and leave
in a zen-like calm, unfazed even by being a sardine on the
tube!”
A
web editor in her 30s
"A
kicking injury kept me from my Tae Kwon Do for 7
months, with burning pain
in my glutes, hamstrings and groin on the left side.
Running made it worse too, so I couldn't exercise as much as
I wanted to. It would flare up every time I did a good
amount of exercise, then be sore for a week or two, and it
just wasn't getting any better. I didn't feel as stable as
before either, and sometimes walking was a bit difficult.
Physio and osteopathy helped with some other stuff, but in
the end it was electroacupuncture that's made a big
difference to this one. After eight treatments my leg is
sorted and I'm really pleased to be back to my Tae Kwon Do.
I was impressed with the
professional and caring service I received and
wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jessica to friend and
colleagues."
An
IT professional in his 20s
"Infertility takes over your whole being and I was really
struggling when I first went to see Jessica,
physically and mentally. I was exhausted trying to balance
the demands of my work, being a mother and a busy social
life and was feeling like a failure because it seemed
impossible to get pregnant second time round. Jessica
completely changed my mindset. Her approach is very warm,
insightful and highly intelligent and she helps you
understand every step of the acupuncture process.
Her treatment made me feel
rejuvenated, stronger and happy again...and what's more I
got pregnant! I would recommend Jessica to anyone
who expresses an interest in the (amazing) potential of this
Chinese medicine."
A
communications consultant in her 30s
"I decided to have acupuncture
to try to relieve pain and
stiffness in my neck and upper back. This had
been a persistent problem for years but had become
particularly bad at that time resulting in almost
constant headaches. As
well, my sinuses were sore
- the cold, damp London air in the winter doesn't help! -
and nothing seemed to relieve that either. I was surprised
at what a difference just one acupuncture treatment made and
after a few treatments, both problems had eased and neither
has bothered me much since."
A PA in her
30s
"A friend recommended I try
acupuncture to help me recover from
a debilitating arm/shoulder injury
caused by a parachute crash. Jessica's
treatment has not only helped me recover fully from the
injury but has also positively changed way I think and feel
about myself and the world around me. I
thoroughly recommend her to anyone, man or woman, looking to
recover from injury or simply to re-engergise their Chi. You
would never regret giving it a chance."
A company
director in his 40s
"When I first decided to
visit Jessica I was very unwell and was feeling very low
with little motivation. I had been off work and in
hospital due to inflammation of
the sacroiliac joint and was barely able to walk or even
sit for that matter. The moment I met
Jessica I felt comfortable and at ease. Jessica is
sympathetic and caring and doesn’t just treat the
problem but the person. Not
only has she helped with the inflammation but I am more
motivated than I ever was since my illness.
Friends and family have noticed the change in me and I
can now look forward to living my life, being a
confident, happy and slightly more laid back woman. I
have been seeing Jessica for nearly a year now, NOT
because I have to but because I look forward to the
monthly boost of making me feel relaxed and focused on
living life to the fullest. I would strongly recommend
a visit to Jessica."
An
administrator in her 30s
"I started acupuncture to
treat a bad back but
with Jessica's thorough approach I soon learned that many of
my little pains and niggles could all be helped with
treatment and I soon found myself
feeling healthier, more energetic and more aware of my body
and what it is telling me! I would be happy to recommend
acupuncture with Jessica to anyone."
An
administrator in her 20s
"At the time I began seeing
Jessica for treatment, I had just left a very stressful job
and was suffering from stress-related
irritable bowel syndrome, headaches and exhaustion.
All of these symptoms have improved greatly since then.
However, the most startling healing success came much later
when Jessica treated the pain I was experiencing from a
ganglion on my right
wrist. Because it never occurred to me that this could be
treated with acupuncture, I didn't mention it for a long
time. I was in pain for nearly a year and saw several
conventional specialists. Once the last specialist told me
there was no option but to operate, I mentioned it to
Jessica. One session of acupuncture
reduced the pain dramatically, and with follow-up
treatments, it is now completely under control.
Jessica's skills extend beyond the physical results she
gets. In treating patients such as myself as whole people,
whose health is intertwined with their thoughts and
feelings, Jessica has shown
remarkable insight and sensitivity. If you are
considering acupuncture, I warmly recommend Jessica to you."
A
researcher in her 30s
"Just
a note to say a great big thank you for the magic you worked
on me during my pregnancy. I'm thrilled that it all went so
smoothly (established labour was only four
hours). I was back in normal jeans again two weeks after the
birth and I feel fabulous - I'm sure the acupuncture made a
huge difference. All in all I had the labour and delivery
that I wanted and it was a great experience -
I'll be sure to see you when it's
the turn of number two - if not before. Thanks so
much again not only for the acupuncture but also you're a
great listener and a calming influence which really helped."
A new
mother in her 30s
"It's a while since I saw you
but I just wanted to let you know that
I'm 33 weeks pregnant today (with identical
twins) and I start my maternity leave at the end of this
week. I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for
all your help in getting me to this place which I went
through this time last year. To say that I'm appreciative is
an under statement. Thank you so
much for helping to get me to this great place in my life."
