Initially, I sought Lilli out for a sore shoulder. But she helped with several other body aches and emotional challenges. I really appreciated her holistic approach to health. She is extremely knowledgeable, openly shares her wisdom and has a very high care factor for her clients.

Lilli went above and beyond, to ensure I got the pain relief I needed. I had excruciating pain shooting down my legs, due to severe inflammation of my Sacroiliac joint. My pain subsided within my very first treatment! Thankyou for your care and professionalism Lilli, I will definitely be returning.

Lilli has been so amazing from the very first session. I was in so much pain and felt so unwell, and the next day I felt 80% better. I couldnt believe it. The following treatment the pain I went for was gone. I feel so lucky that my friend told me about her. I have other issues and she helps me feel better every time. I recommend her highly. You will be extremely happy with her manner and her treatment!

Lilis knowledge is greater than being an amazing acupuncturist. During my regular 3 months of acupuncture weve used different tactics that would not only tackle the issue I came with, improve my general well-being and increase my energy level, it helped me to learn about my health a lot along the way. Lili was always available when I had urgent questions after the session and would kindly direct me what to do or when needed would offer me a complimentary acupuncture session which had helped enormously. After each acupuncture session with Lili I feel balanced, calmer, open to receive good

I have been seeing Dr Lili Ho for 6 weeks now (once a week) to help with back, neck, shoulder and hip pain and suffice to say it has been working wonders on my health. I feel like I have more energy along with little to no pain in those areas mentioned. We are going to focus on my stomach issues next 5-6 weeks. I highly recommend Dr Lili to anyone who is suffering from pain or gut issues.

As a software engineer, I have been suffered from neck and shoulder pain for almost 2 years. However, after the very first day of the treatment with Dr. Lily Ho, my right shoulder and neck feel better than ever. The pain would come back during the next few days, but after a few weeks of treatment, my shoulder and neck feel a lot better now. In addition to the pain, during the hard lockdown, I also lost sleep for many days. Lily is the expert who brings your best sleep back. Now, I can sleep well every day. I am still in treatment and hope to get rid of the pain completely. Highly recommend Dr
