WHAT MY PATIENTS SAY

I suffered an ectopic pregnancy which resulted in my fallopian tube being removed. My remaining fallopian tube was blocked so this meant that IVF was our last chance in having a second child. I started acupuncture with Elaine, she taught me how to control my diet with avoiding high sugar foods and certain carbs that did not help women with PCOS. I have to say that Elaine has been my rock through the whole IVF process. Not only did she carry out acupuncture she also listened and was there for me. IVF is a very stressful process and I was very lucky to have Elaine by my side helping me through some of the darkest days of my life. One year on I am now a happy mama to 2 beautiful babies. I will continue my acupuncture with Elaine as it really does help with my hormones and stress levels. I really can’t thank Elaine enough and would high recommend Elaine.
