' After only one session my lower back pain was greatly reduced, after two sessions I could walk upright again.  Thank you Penny.'

' I'm 20 years old and have received many varied NHS treatments for Crohn's Disease for seven years without any significant improvement at all and have suffered a continuous seven year spell of ill health.  Within my first three or four treatments from Penny I started to improve and after ten treatments I am off four of the five long term medicines I had been on (including almost five years on steroids) and am now able to eat dairy products for the first time since I was diagnosed in 2001.  I was initially sceptical about acupuncture but would now recommend it to anyone with health problems.  The only fitting word to describe Penny's help in improving my health and quality of life would have to be SPECTACULAR!'

'Penny is a first-rate practitioner and a warm, down-to-earth person.  Her quiet, professional demeanour immediately inspires confidence and she works hard and with much thought to help you resolve your health problems.  She has created a wonderful space at Harper's Mill and I always look forward to our sessions.'

'I would wholeheartedly recommend acupuncture from Penny at The Acupuncture Clinic.   I had a bad back after pregnancy: I had a slipped disc and problems with my hip and pelvis as well.  For nearly 5 months I was unable to walk more than a few steps across a room, couldn't stand up for more than a minute or two, and was in terrible pain all the time, all the way down my leg.  It made looking after my son very difficult.  I couldn't get out of the house very often (and never without a lot of help).  I couldn't even do simple tasks like cooking a meal.  All of this affected my mood and I felt very low.

I came to Penny's clinic as a last resort, as I had tried so many things and none of them had worked.  I was taking four kinds of painkillers and had to sleep strapped to a TENS machine, but nothing really stopped it from hurting.

Gradually over  the course of six sessions I got better and better (with the odd difficult day in between) and by the end of treatment I could stand up straight, walk into town pushing the buggy, do things around the house again and was able to stop taking painkillers all the time.

I feel like a different person - I have my confidence back, my mood is brilliant and I can finally look after my little boy properly and take him to the park!

I wish I had come to Penny sooner - I might have avoided five months of pain.  She has transformed my life and I can't thank her enough.'
