'' I had been suffering from headaches and shoulder and neck pain for years when I started seeing Monika. Had a variety of scans, MRI, and different examinations to find a reason for chronic headaches and nothing came up. After a few treatments of cupping and acupuncture with Monika the shoulder pain went and after a session of gua sha on my neck - my headaches cleared completely.'' (Tom)
✻ ''I didn't actually think it was going to help, but it was my last resort. I tried physios and chiropractors and nothing would help my back and just after the first session of acupuncture with Monika, I felt a huge relief in my back pain and started sleeping better.'' (Ashleigh , 8 months pregnant)
✻ ''I received acupuncture treatments from Monika during my IVF process and have continued throughout my pregnancy. I believe Monika’s exceptional skill and guidance have been pivotal to the success of our implantation and the smooth progression of my pregnancy. Now eight months in, I am immensely grateful for her support and cannot recommend her highly enough, especially to those facing fertility challenges. Monika's professionalism and her warm, welcoming demeanour make her a standout practitioner. Her treatments have not only alleviated many of the physical aches and pains I've experienced but also eased the general stresses on my body, making this journey much more manageable.'' (Laura, failed implantation and recurrent miscarriage)
✻ ''After multiple miscarriages I was recommended to see Monika. It didn't seem like the mainstream healthcare was able to offer much more than certain tests that were inconclusive in the end. After receiving acupuncture for a couple of months and introducing some changes to what I ate and drank, as well as making sure my back was always toasty(!), I was able to conceive and carry a healthy pregnancy and have now a beautiful baby boy. '' (Jeanie, recurrent miscarriage)
✻ '' [Acupuncture] improved my quality of life enabling me to have less pain and painful spasms and sleep much better'' (Eileen, fibromyalgia)
✻ ''I have had 2 treatments with Monika now, and so far I have been impressed with her attention to detail and knowledge. She is really friendly and welcoming, which made it easy to open up and relax. I have many subtle but connected concerns, so it is wonderful to receive treatment that considers all of me, body and mind, something missing in western medical treatment. I have felt really positive and uplifted after each session, and I am confident that the treatments are helping me to heal.'' (K., eating disorder)
✻ ''I first came to see Monika for help with chronic pain and muscle tension, but what I’ve found really amazing is how holistic her treatments are - she is really interested in the bigger picture, and how my wider wellbeing affects my physical condition. She uses a combination of different approaches (including acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and gua sha) in order to respond to whatever my body needs in any given session. I leave the sessions feeling really relaxed, calm and cared for, and with a much greater range of movement as well as relief from pain. I can’t recommend her highly enough!'' (Hannah, back pain)
✻ ''I had used acupuncture before, so when I started having problems with my cycle I turned to it again. Monika is a very intuitive and supportive practitioner and her treatment has always helped me a lot.'' (Monica, dysmenorrhea)
✻ ''Had acupuncture from Monika for arthritis which was very helpful to get me mobile again. She is very warm caring and skilled therapist who used several techniques over the course of my visits to get me better. Would definitely see her again '' (William, arthritis)
✻ ''I've suffered from chronic diarrhoea for six months after return from my travels in Asia. Already after the first session I felt loads better, had more energy and much fewer cramps'' (Yvonne, IBS-type symptoms)
✻ ''I first went to Monika about a year and a half ago for some back pain I’d been having for a number of months. I’d seen multiple doctors about it but nothing helped. After just 1-2 sessions with Monika the pain was gone and hasn’t come back! Since then I’ve been continuing to see her for severe chronic anxiety, and the acupuncture has made such a major difference that has significantly improved my quality of life. Monika really takes the time to get to know her clients and what they need. She is very attentive and creates a welcoming and comfortable environment. I cannot recommend her highly enough!'' (Rosa, back pain and anxiety)
✻ ''I have been going to Monika for years and would thoroughly recommend her to anyone with back or muscle pain. I had a back injury a few months ago and Monika did cupping and acupuncture therapy which helped enormously. A great all round practitioner!'' (Olivia, back pain)
