Treatment Testimonials

“I’ve known Sam for five years and have been receiving acupuncture treatments from her for three of these. I injured my back at work, fracturing vertebrae T3,4&5 and injuring the discs between. I was in constant pain and had difficulty walking, I couldn’t sit or lie comfortably. I was unable to engage in any day to day life activities. I tried physio, osteopaths, chiropractors and a myriad of other treatments with very little relief or progress. My consultant said that the only option left open to me was surgery which would fuse the damaged vertebra and remove the damaged discs.Sam offered to treat me and after only six sessions I noticed a considerable improvement in my symptoms. The pain was much reduced and I began to walk much better. I was able to increasingly begin to build strength back in the area surrounding the injury and I started to take gentle exercise, (Tai Chi and Yoga). I am now almost symptom free with only occasional exacerbations, (if I do something I shouldn’t!!). Sam also now treats my very brittle asthma and helps to keep the symptoms of this degenerative illness at a minimum. Anyone looking for a therapist who treats holistically and sensitively need look no further. “
Jake Flood, Nurse.

“I have worked with Sam at a number of festival events during summer 2006 where she was involved in the healing area. From showing such capability at each event Sam has become more heavily involved, to the point that she is now organising and co-ordinating the Lotus Healing Area at two of the largest festivals in England and Wales.Sam has an outstanding passion for the work that she does, showing professionalism and care every step of the way. Working with Sam makes what could be a really tough experience an absolute pleasure – and the bliss on the faces of those who experience her healing first hand is priceless. “
