What My Cancer Patients Say About Acupuncture 

I would like to thank you for the incredible impact of the acupuncture you have given in relation to my chemotherapy-induced menopausal symptoms. Until 2 weeks ago I was experiencing hot flushes, occasionally during the day but mostly from 6 p.m. and throughout the night. I was waking every 15 – 30 minutes at night with a hot flush, which was exhausting. I now have no hot flushes in the evening and I am not being woken by hot flushes at night. I can not express the difference this has made coping with my treatment. Thank you too for your kind and supportive nature.
