I have been a patient of Jane’s since she first set up in practice 13 years ago. Over the years I have visited her for several different health problems the last consultation being for a painful shoulder problem which was completely resolved in just two sessions. I believe in the efficacy of Acupuncture because I have experienced the benefits at first hand on several occasions. I also believe in Jane as a talented and dedicated practitioner who consistently works with skill and with heart. You get more than just a consultation and treatment from Jane you get her undivided attention and sometimes you get advice on how to help yourself to heal yourself (and you would do well to listen to this stuff as it’s always worth listening to!)

"I have been seeing Jane for over 5 years. She is extremely professional and is very competent and compassionate. Jane has a personal touch and makes me feel at ease the moment I walk through the door. She has treated me with great success, not only addressing my physical needs and ailments but the emotional ones as well. I wouldn't change to any other acupuncturist and would recommend that you pay her a visit." Female aged 45

"Having suffered agonizing sciatic nerve pain for some weeks and having tried all other ways of gaining some relief (doctor, physio, chiropractor, osteopath, painkillers) a friend advised me to try acupuncture. Although I have an instinctive dread of needles, acupuncture does not worry me. After having just 3 sessions with Jane Stephen, the problem was solved and has never returned. Both my wife and myself now have regular acupuncture sessions as a preventative measure and we both thoroughly recommend acupuncture above all other remedies." Male aged 69

“In spite of using glucosamine derivatives and other supplements to counter arthritis in one knee, walking was becoming increasingly uncomfortable. Physiotherapy helped slightly but discomfort remained. Acupuncture gave relief from discomfort and walking difficulty for some days even after the first treatment. After several treatments the discomfort was much reduced, improvement started to last for longer periods and walking became much easier. For one who has been a golfer all his life and who also plays rink bowls, these things matter!" Male aged 82

"Jane has been my acupuncturist for over 10 years. She is an honest, trustworthy practitioner with a calm, gentle and caring manner. She even counts you in with your breathing so you do not notice the needles so much! Over the years I have become more accustomed to the terminology which is rather confusing at first but I relax knowing that Jane has my best interests at heart. Personally, I can recommend Jane for eradicating migraine, and for skin, digestive and gynecological issues. Over the years the most important treatment for me was getting my system in order allowing me to conceive naturally. A visit to Jane is not just a visit to an acupuncturist, it is a visit to a friend, confidante and counselor too. You will go a long way to find one better." Female aged 43

"I am very happy to report that the treatment by acupuncture you have done on my right hip is effective. I have recovered a great deal of my mobility. Also, you have done a good work on my bowel problem and it is back working normally now. Thank you very much Jane for your help and I wish you to do the same for many others." Female aged 73

"I had a course of acupuncture with Jane for chronic pain in my back, neck, legs and shoulders. I had had lots of other types of treatment (including other types of acupuncture) for the pain which had been unsuccessful. Jane's thorough and consistent approach gradually and steadily made a lasting impact on my pain. Her vast knowledge of acupuncture significantly helped the treatment of my complicated pain problem. Jane was also able to advise me about various self-help techniques I could use at home to assist my treatment. These also proved to be extremely useful. Coming to Jane for treatment definitely helped me make a breakthrough in the management of a problem I had lived with for years and if I have any problems in the future I would not hesitate to go back for further treatment.
I also had treatment for fertility problems, including acupuncture immediately before and after embryo implantation at the end of a course of IVF. My chances of a successful pregnancy because of my age (37) were extremely low (12% chance) and immediately before embryo implantation I was told my chances were even less because of how the treatment had gone (only 2 fertilized eggs and low number of cell division). Amazingly, against all the odds one embryo successfully implanted and I how have a baby daughter. It’s impossible to say exactly how much acupuncture contributed to me having successful IVF but I am completely convinced that, given the odds that were stacked against me, acupuncture significantly helped me. Again, the advice I would give to any couple with fertility problems is to definitely try acupuncture, especially with Jane given her wealth of knowledge and experience in this area." Female aged 39
