I cant recomend April enough . She is a wonderful pratitioner with a great knowledge of TCM , fertility, womens health and how to support women . I have always found her to be calm, non judegmental and she always will go the extra mile for you to help you with your concerns. I felt very comfortable around her discussing anything. I also recomend her to my clients with complete confidence. Thank you so much April for you support

April is a genuinely good human who also happens to be an exceptional acupuncturist.As someone who has seen other acupuncturists and broken out in a sweat due to anxiety and discomfort from the treatment- I appreciate her gentle style, and willingness to stay in the room with me when needed.Her approach makes me feel safe and secure, which enhances my treatment outcomes.She has treated pretty well all members of family over the years, and is my 'go to' TCM practitioner.

April is amazing! She has so much knowledge that has helped my overall health and wellbeing. April has been able to help me instantly with issues I have presented with on the day of an appointment, but most importantly, she has also been able to help me with health issues I have been dealing with for years that nothing else has been able to help with. I am so grateful to April for everything.

I started Accupunture at 35 weeks with April once I found out I potentially was going to be induced for labour (I had Gestational Diabetes). It was so relaxing seeing her and not only preparing for induction, taking care of other things along the way -such as reflux and back/hip pain.Once I was booked for induction at 39 weeks I saw April twice a week for a more ‘intense’ session.In the end I had a session on the Monday evening- which again, was so relaxing I felt very in tune and prepared. I went into labour on the Tuesday and had my baby in under 3.5 hours. Couldn’t recommend it more to any pregnant ladies who have had the induction card thrown at them. I escaped all medical intervention and had a natural birth.

April cares for my family with remarkable wisdom and wealth of experience. We have sought her healing expertise on a wide array of ailments - pregnancy pains, hormonal happenings, breastfeeding issues, neck and back aches, fatigue and depression, among other things. Each time her gentle and considered treatment has shifted the malady and we have quickly enjoyed thriving health once more.April is friendly and funny, making every visit a real joy.

April and her work with acupuncture as changed my life. I came to April after coming off the contraceptive pill. I was experiencing irregular and painful periods post coming off the pill, it was so frustrating. Having treatments with April has now shorted my cycles to a healthy length, my periods are no longer painful, my skin has cleared up and my mood/energy has improved so much. I highly recommend April not just because she is good as what she does, but because she is an incredible space holder and all round beautiful human.
