Testimonials
“I don’t achieve that level of peace and calm anywhere else. Kim has been such a support to me through that last few months of recurrent miscarriage and infertility treatment – can’t recommend enough.”
“This lady is incredibly talented at her art. I came in today for a routine fertility appointment but mentioned I had a swollen gland which was quite painful & I was worrying it may be the start of needing antibiotics before a fet cycle but Kim being as excellent as she always is performed her magic & within a few hours I felt as good as new. Everyone needs a Kim as their practitioner, I’m so grateful, thank you. “
“Kim is the most incredible acupuncturist. She has a lot of knowledge and shares it in a way that’s easy to Understand. I had treatments with my last pregnancy and after 2 miscarriages I came back again for some more help. I only wish I had come back sooner. I am also so confident in everything Kim is doing to keep herself and her patients safe during Covid. If you’re struggling to get pregnant or stay pregnant it’s so worth talking to Kim”
“I have been seeing Kimberley since November for my endometriosis and other symptoms caused by this. Since starting treatments my cycle length has returned to average, my pain has reduced, I’ve slept better and lots more!! Kim is so knowledgeable and passionate about alternative therapies and her knowledge on endometriosis and woman’s health is amazing. Highly recommend this clinic to everyone!”
