Report
Sought out Michelle's services after living with increasing chronic pain and emotional fatigue and frustration. After feeling like there wasn't anything that could help me I thought I might as well give acupuncture a go. Michelle made me feel listened to from the initial 15 free consultation through all my appointments and she worked with my GP to help pinpoint areas where my body was in a deficit.
She has alleviated SO much of my pain and subsequently this has improved my mood and outlook tremendously. I cannot recommend Michelle's services more or thank her enough for the treatments I have received

Discovering Michelle has been a life changing experience for me! I thoroughly enjoy her treatments and the way she incorporates a range of therapies to address my concerns around digestion and scoliosis. Michelle is very professional as well as being warm and caring. I have benefited greatly under her guidance.
