Success Stories

Sarah, Hertfordshire

I was told I had a premature ovarian reserve at the age of 34 after trying for a year to conceive. A couple of months after this diagnosis I decided to visit Kate because of the benefits I had heard could be gained from acupuncture in the treatment of infertility.

From the very first visit I was greatly impressed with Kate’s sensitive approach to my fertility problems (I had visited another acupuncturist before and stopped the course because I didn’t feel comfortable with the sessions) so started a course of treatment which helped me greatly over the following months, allowing me to become more relaxed during a very difficult time.

Eventually me and my husband decided to go down the IVF route and I believe this preparation helped me when I undertook a cycle of IVF as it was successful first time and I am now four months pregnant!

I’d thoroughly recommend Kate to anyone going through a situation similar to mine both for the physical and the emotional benefits.

I was sceptical about acupuncture but my friend told me about Kate and I tried it to help with my headaches. Kate was very reassuring and explained that I had the very stubborn type of headaches that would improve but not go away altogether.

I found it very useful talking to her and realised a lot of things about myself that I had previously overlooked. I felt calm and relaxed after treatments and although the headaches didn’t disappear entirely, they have gone very much into the background and I feel empowered to deal with them myself a lot more. I really started to look at things in a different way and I am very grateful for that.

I came to see Kate several years ago for help with insomnia. I had experienced a very stressful time at work and my sleep had gone to pot.

I couldn’t believe how quickly we resolved my sleep issues and how calm and grounded I felt after my treatments. Now I go every year or so to help my energy levels and to keep me balanced. I love it and recommend it to everyone I see.

I had had two terrible labours and was dreading my third. I called Kate initially to find out about setting off my labour as I had been induced with the others.

We talked it through and I felt prepared to have a couple of sessions at the end of my pregnancy to get me ready for labour. I enjoyed the sessions when I had the induction treatment I was thrilled when I went into labour a few hours later.

Kate also agreed to give me acupuncture for pain relief in labour and so met me at the hospital. She successfully helped me through the entire thing and I had such a positive experience that I asked her to help me again when I had my fourth baby!

I am a complete convert to acupuncture. It was amazing

Someone at my tennis club told me about Kate and I thought that I should try and resolve my tennis elbow. It was a complaint that had been rumbling on for years but had finally put me off the court and I was feeling rather fed-up.

After six sessions I felt well enough to play again. I am still not quite sure how it all works but it was a very pleasant experience and I am glad to have found someone to help me manage it.
