Male, 56,
After five treatments: “Has truly been life changing… I have been delighted with the changes. Jo is attentive, thorough and professional. She explained the procedures and the theory and answered all my questions. She was genuinely interested in me and my treatment and was very caring. I look forward to the treatment each week as it is like going to see a friend.”

After five treatments: “ I now feel much more comfortable in my body, calm and at peace with myself. Jo is an amazing acupuncturist. She takes a thorough case history and I felt really listened to and understood with her warm bedside manner and professionalism. Acupuncture has treated my body, mind and spirit and I highly recommend this ancient from of healing and Jo as a practitioner. She is in a class of her own!”
Male, 48
After five treatments: “Much better compared to before acupuncture. Jo was very professional and knowledgeable, excellent at diagnosing the right treatment plan and course of action required. Always communicated what was happening and why. So gentle with the needles too (hardly felt them going in!).”
Female, 54
After five treatments: “ I noticed a significant improvement. From the outset, I felt at home with Jo. She was both attentive and sensitive to all that I shared with her and there was a sense that she was treating the whole of me – and not just my symptoms. Jo was always kind, considerate and empathic and I felt able to be myself. She created a safe space for me to come and just ‘be.’ She was careful to explain each treatment – and what to expect – so that there were no surprises which helped me to relax. She was also careful to advise that I sought medical advice on some of my symptoms in addition to treating me with acupuncture. At the start of my treatment, Jo had stressed that my sessions with her were ‘me-time.’ I always left each one feeling that was exactly what I had had – and perhaps that is the greatest thing I have taken away from this course of acupuncture – that ‘me-time’ is both necessary and beneficial! Thank you Jo!”

After five treatments: “ There was a definite change overall. My experience of Jo is she listens really well and takes all your history in great detail and is very professional but is also easy to talk to about your reason for trying acupuncture. Jo wears a very smart white tunic, and the environment is very clean and tidy as a clinic should be. Jo follows all the hygiene protocols and explains exactly what she is going to be doing so I felt in control and completely safe. Jo is very empathetic and was able to make me relax and speak at ease about how I felt emotionally and physically and gave me plenty of time to talk about my health. Jo is very careful, gentle and reassuring this enabled me to feel really relaxed during treatment sessions. I’m feeling much improved.”
Female, 62
After five treatments: “ The results have been impressive. Complete faith in Jo. I was sold on the idea of having treatment almost immediately after hearing how passionate Jo is and her belief in acupuncture. Throughout the sessions she gave me a step by step account of the treatment and the benefits. She has a very calming and gentle nature, putting one at ease. I’m so pleased with the treatment I have received.”
Female, 49
After five treatments: “Better. I would recommend acupuncture. Great for self-care and as part of maximising optimal health. Jo is very knowledgeable, calm and respectful who is great at what she does.”
