Back Pain

"I have spinal injuries and suffer chronic pain as a result of a car crash some 10 years ago. I have been receiving treatment from Emma for over a year now.

Migraine Headaches

"After suffering for over 30 years from migraines and chronic daily headaches I felt I had nothing to lose when a friend introduced me to Emma, who felt that acupuncture could help me. After trying many, many alternative remedies I was very sceptical of the treatment being beneficial to me. Within 6 weeks my family and I were astounded by the difference the treatment made to my daily life.

Over the last 2 ½ years my headaches have improved so much that I have only had 1 or 2 migraines and have coped so much better with life in general.  I have no hesitation in recommending acupuncture to anyone who suffers from persistent headaches."

Period Pain

"I have always suffered from period pain. I noticed about 8 years ago I started passing out one day a year during my period, having sickness and diarrhoea and needing Feminax to ease the spasms and pain. I had always put up with it, hoping things would get better and was at the end of my tether. I didn't go to my GP as I felt I wouldn't get anywhere.

Two years ago, I was looking through a copy of Rutland Living and saw an advert for Emma Sammels and thought why not! My first visit was a consultation where I felt very much at ease. I have been having treatment with Emma for over 2 years now and can honestly say that my periods have improved so much. I get occasional cramping, which I put down to the fact that I am 44 and getting nearer the menopause, but I have had no blackouts since having treatment 2 years ago.

Of course, Emma has treated me for other areas which have vastly improved my confidence and outlook. I would recommend to any lady that has period pain to give it a go. You may not find an instant result but be persistent and you will see the difference."

Wellbeing

"At the age of 39, having made a decision to address ‘past and present' personal issues, I turned to acupuncture as a way forward. I'm more open to alternative therapies than traditional ones- to me they're more beneficial.

What I really value is being able to sit down with Emma at the beginning of each session, in confidence, to talk about the progress I've made since my last appointment. This means that each treatment is specifically tailored to me and what I need most at that particular time. The lifestyle advice is great too- if you're disciplined enough to follow it!

It's now 16 months since I started acupuncture and I'm more than pleased with the results. Although I had weekly appointments to begin with, I now see Emma every 4 weeks. Investing in my "wellbeing" has benefited me and those closest to me."

Stress & Hay Fever

"I first joined Emma at Simply Acupuncture a year ago. My job is very stressful and I was struggling to get through the day and not getting things done. With regular sessions, I have definitely enjoyed the benefits of less stress; feeling more relaxed within myself and am sleeping better than ever. I would have no hesitation in recommending Emma to anyone with similar issues. Also, it worked a treat for my hay fever too!"

Sinus Problem & Wellbeing

"My name is Sue and I am 57 years old. Having suffered from sinus problems and dizzy spells for the last 20 years, I have been from doctor to doctor and specialist to specialist, and getting progressively worse. They finally said there was nothing more they could do and that I had to learn to live with it. I was recommended by a friend to have acupuncture. Feeling very sceptical, and out of sheer desperation, I went ahead with the first appointment.

After the first treatment I began to notice a slight difference. By the third treatment I stopped feeling dizzy all of the time and also began to sleep through the night again, after many years of not being able to do so. My complexion also changed from a dull yellow back to pink again. My eyes returned to being bright blue, which they always used to be, and my family and friends told me that I was looking younger and healthier than I had for many years. With Emma's help and guidance I have learned to listen and be aware of what my body is telling me.

I am now a believer in acupuncture. If you have similar problems, don't be scared, it can help you. After all, the Chinese have been using acupuncture for over 2000 years."
