Sarah Woodall

I went to Amanda for a pregnancy massage at 32 weeks pregnant & wished I’d been going once a month since finding out I was pregnant! It was so relaxing and Amanda is so knowledgeable and makes you feel so comfortable. My massage was purely for relaxation & to help with general pregnancy aches & pains and it really helped. I’d recommend anyone go to her for anything pregnancy related.

Jenny Dickerson

I met Amanda during my 4th pregnancy as my little boy was in a breech position and a couple of people had mentioned using moxibustion to try and turn him. Amanda answered any questions I had and even made time to speak to me over the phone before I made an appointment with her which really helped to put me at ease. During the appointment she talked me through everything she was doing and why and really helped me to relax during the acupuncture and moxibustion. She then talked me through how me and my partner should continue the moxibustion at home until we had our presentation scan. Our little boy was a very stubborn baby and hasn’t turned at the scan so I contacted Amanda for more advice as the hospital booked me in for an ECV. Amanda advices we continued to use moxibustion until the ECV as it can help baby to turn easier during the procedure. Well today we went for the ECV and it was successful!!! Or little boy has turned and is now head down. Thankyou Amanda for your help and support xx

Aicha Salhi

I saw Amanda while pregnant and she was amazing. She’s very knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease. Her pregnancy massage is so relaxing, she really knows the right spots to massage. I would definitely see Amanda again if I have more babies.

Abi Williamson

A friend recommended Amanda to me when i was 36 weeks pregnant. I wished that i had known about her sooner!I had a couple of pregnancy massages with Amanda and for someone who is stressed and on the go 90% of the time, i’ve never felt so relaxed. Her knowledge is invaluable and her passion for womens’s health is amazing. I used the techniques that Amanda taught me when i was in labour and managed to stay at home until i was 8cm dilated.I truly recommend Amanda and i plan to return for post natal treatment.

Jade Shilton

I visited Amanda weekly for pregnancy massage to relieve back and hip pain exacerbated from a car crash. Not only is Amanda incredibly knowledgeable in holistic therapy she is extremely warm and welcoming- I was so relaxed and clear minded after every session and looked forward to the next so much so that I was slightly disappointed that my baby came early and put an end to my treatment. I thoroughly recommend Amanda to any one seeking prenatal therapies! Thank you for being so wonderful.

Steffi-Louise Edge

During pregnancy I had two amazing massages from Amanda. One was a gift for my birthday and the second I booked in to treat myself around my due date. The whole experience was very relaxing and the week after my second one, our little girl was born. I felt ready and more importantly, as did my body through the treatment I had with Amanda. I would highly recommend to anyone in pregnancy! Amazing work x

Kimberley Vickers

Went to Amanda before the pandemic hit for a few fertility acupuncture sessions. Unfortunately due to Covid, we weren’t able to continue in the way we had hoped to but nevertheless, I can say with confidence that during/after the sessions I did have, I felt incredibly relaxed, more positive and each time came away with a little more knowledge to support me going forward. I’m happy to say that we eventually fell pregnant naturally and I’m now 14 weeks and therefore (due to some sort normality resuming) I have been able to return to Amanda, but this time because my husband booked me a surprise pregnancy massage! Honestly…..THE NICEST MASSAGE EVER EVER! Amanda did a consultation first to establish what my needs were and then tailored the massage and oils to my needs. I felt so relaxed when I got home 😴I’ve been suffering with debilitating nausea from 5 weeks onwards and she also mixed me up a little bottle of oils to pop on my wrists/a cotton wool ball etc to smell anytime I felt nauseated and explained that some people were Yin and some people Yang and depending on which they were, they may feel better or worse from things like ginger (because it’s warming) or mint (because it’s cooling). Every day is a school day! She’s super knowledgeable ❤️I have rebooked for November and I already cannot wait. Thank you so much ☺️❤️

Kerry Dixon

I went to a variety of different sessions with Amanda for a good duration of my pregnancy and i cannot explain how amazing she is. Completrly full of knowledge about complementry therapies during pregnancy and makes you feel at ease during every appointment. Amanda helped me massively with not only my physical health during pregnancy but also my mental health too. A pure angel in disguise and i recommend to everybody i know about how amazing she is. Thank you so much Amanda for helping me get through pregnancy safely and calmly ❤️🥰

Emma Tomkinson

I had a pregnancy massage with Amanda as I wanted to enjoy a treatment in my last week of pregnancy and I highly recommend her; she is so lovely and professional and knowledgeable. It was my first ever massage and she made me feel at ease and explained the benefits of each treatment thoroughly. Amanda helped me to relax and unwind and the next day I went into spontaneous labour. Thank you so much 🥰

Amy-Sue Wright

I found Amanda’s page after reading into the benefits of complimentary therapies during pregnancy and discovered how highly recommended she was! I booked in at 36+6 for acupuncture & reflexology- to aid relaxation and help cure any imbalances. The treatment was extremely relaxing after having some anxieties regarding acupuncture and any pain associated with it, I needed not to worry!!! The whole experience was tranquil and helped to cleanse me. Amanda is a fantastic practitioner, I felt extremely comfortable from the moment we met; I felt like we were friends rather than client and practitioner- however her professionalism remains prominent throughout. Her font of knowledge is what impressed me the most too. The treatment I received was not to induce labour but to prepare and relax me- and it did just that! I birthed our beautiful daughter Maya 4 days later at home and unmediated! This was my dream as a first time mum and I believe Amanda helped me to achieve that. I’m gutted that I didn’t get the opportunity to receive more treatments. Thank you again Amanda ❤️

Fiona John

I saw Amanda for treatment during early pregnancy for morning sickness and in the latter stages for massage due to oedema. It was very important to me as a midwife to get someone who was also a healthcare professional. I needed to know that the treatment I would receive was evidence based.Nine years later, I’m still seeing Amanda for acupuncture due to chronic pain and menopause symptoms. I was always skeptical about the benefits. However, Amanda has proved them to me time and time again.I also find it very reassuring that Amanda is actively passing on her expertise. She is often training other Health Professions on how to utilise alternative therapy in their practice. It’s just a shame the NHS have not got onboard with the benefits for its patients.

Kiiki Mugasa

Amazing experience will defiantly be coming back again so kind and educated about her role which made me feel at ease straight away. would highly recommend.

Eleanor Evans

I cannot recommend Amanda enough. She is highly skilled, empathetic and extremely knowledgable. I visited her in the last month of my pregnancy and she used massage, acupuncture and essential oils. All had an extremely positive effect on my health and well being. I would highly recommend Amanda to anyone who is either pregnant or wishing to be.Thanks for all Amanda x

Shannon Jaye Fryer

all of my appointments with Amanda were absolutely amazing. whilst pregnant I suffered really badly with PGP and sciatica, I went to Amanda for just a massage but she helped me with so much more! the massage was absolutely amazing, but she also showed me exercises that I could do and that my partner could help me with and gave me some acupuncture. she also gave me the mix of essential oils used in my appointment to use at home, and I loved using it in the bath. Amanda is amazing in general and so comforting and reassuring to speak to.

Hattie Yaseen Harper

Amanda is a beautiful person inside and out! as soon as I had my first treatment with Amanda I felt instantly relaxed. I felt so at ease with Amanda and her knowledge of both aromotherapy and also midwifery is amazing and I felt so comftable and at ease knowing that she certainly knows her stuff! she made me so welcome and I wouldn't go anywhere else for my pregnancy massages or for any kind of pregnancy treatment. the clinic is beautiful and calming and I look forward to everytime I have my appointment. ❤️ I would reccomend Amanda any day of the week to any friends family or general public. she's amazing! her treatments are amazing and really really do work! i suffer severely with panic attacks and anxiety and going to see Amanda really really does help me! 1000% reccomend.

Bethan Summers

Well what can I say??Amanda has helped me through two pregnancies, not only my with acupuncture and wonderful relaxing massages but also through talking therapy.There have been times I’ve turned up at her clinic in tears where she’s soothed and calmed me.Amanda’s has always been at the end of the phone or text to check how I am and to put things into perspective.Amanda totally saved me through my last pregnancy not only mentally but physically, by using moxi-bustion on my 37 week baby boy.Using moxi-bustion in clinic with Amanda and then at home with my partner we managed to turn my breech baby which facilitated me having a wonderful home birth just as I had planned.Thank you Amanda, you are forever a special part of mine and my baby’s lives xxx

Laura Dubajic

Just had the most amazing pregnancy massage with Amanda. My back feels so much better now. Amanda made me feel very at ease & talked me through everything she was doing. I will definitely be returning. Highly recommend

Fehrina Ward

Having seen Amanda twice all I can say is how professional she is and how beneficial her therapies have been for me! I have had a full body pregnancy massage at the beginning of my pregnancy and this was just what I needed! The combination of the massage and the aromatic oils helped calm and relax me. My second visit was for acupuncture for the nausea and sickness which I had been experiencing throughout my pregnancy. Amanda was so gentle and professional and talked me through the acupuncture. After 2 days my nausea had subsided and was much more manageable. I would 100% recommend Amanda and her therapies!

Ceri-Ann Turner

Had a fabulous pregnancy massage with Amanda. It massively helped my sciatica which pretty much disappeared from the day I had my massage (35 weeks) and stayed away until baby delivered (39 weeks). I only wish I had gone a bit sooner. It was so easy to relax around Amanda and I would recommend her pregnancy massages to anyone not just for pregnancy aches and pains but simply for relaxation

Rachael Louise Smith

I would highly recommend Amanda she is such a kind and lovely lady... at 28 weeks pregnant my baby turned breech and caused horrendous pain and numbness down my left leg I could hardly walk, Amanda managed to get me in straight away, and recommended we try acupuncture and zone therapy to treat the pain I can honestly say the relief I felt from the first session was instant I have sinse continued to have differnt treatments with Amanda and after every session iv felt amazing after.Thank you again Amanda ❤

Rachel Louise Trelfa

This lady is absolutely fantastic and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I initially went for a pregnancy massage which was so relaxing, however I went back for some post date treatment as I was past my due date and was really anxious about being induced again. Within a few days I went into natural labour and the pain relief advise I received was of a great help. Thank you so much for everything.

Sarah Myatt

I visited Amanda on a few occasions through out my pregnancy with a few different reason. I was suffering with really bad heads and anxiety. Amanda suggested that I could try accupuntue which I did and it helped me alot. It was in a beautiful relaxed environment and very peaceful. I would recommend Amanda to anyone that needs any treatments that's she provides.

Laura Adams

I visited Amanda when I was way past my due date and my induction was imminent. I had been told that my daughters head was not only not engaged, but was so high in my pelvis I was showing no signs of going into spontaneous labour. By visiting Amanda, I was hoping to help my baby engage. I was also feeling very fed up and anxious as to why there was no engagement and what it would mean in my induction. Amanda from the onset of contacting her was incredibly accommodating and professional. She squeezed me in, even though she had a very busy day the day before my induction. As soon as I arrived she made me feel at ease and talked through my situation and worries and what she could do to help. The setting is incredibly relaxing and she helped me to better understand my situation.She performed acupressure to encourage baby to engage, and aromatherapy massage which was incredibly relaxing and soothing! Amanda taught me what she was doing throughout, so I could repeat the techniques on my own to help bring about natural labour. I left feeling much calmer, confident and knowledgeable about my induction and when I was examined on arrival at the hospital, baby’s head was in the pelvic region, so I think the therapy really helped me. Thanks Amanda for all your support.

Natalie Clowes

After seeing Amanda's post on FB for facial accupunture with the celluma LED light therapy I thought I would give it a try as I have been suffering with red and dry flaky skin on my face. I have know Amanda for several years but only had massages (which are one of the best massages I've ever had) So I had my first treatment at the end of January and I had instant results In fact if it wasn't my face I wouldnt believe the improvement! Amanda is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work and she has such a lovely persona making you feel at ease and keeping you comfortable during the treatment and very professional. Amanda starts with the body needles and whilst you can feel them they do not hurt then the facial Needles can be a little bit eye watering but its only the initial entering of the needle. Then the lovely relaxing celluma light is put over your face and then finally a lovely nourishing face mask to end the treatment before removing the Needles. Amanda is not only treating my skin she is unraveling the deeper issues within my body that have caused the traumas to manifestek on my face. Amanda has give me aftercare and recommend many skincare and makeup products to explore that are pure and paraban free. I had my 2nd treatment yesterday and again I noticed a huge different as you will see from the photos. I would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone and she offers various treatments to suit your needs and or concerns.

Claire Holly Allman

Amanda has supported me throughout both my pregnancies with massage, acupressure and acupuncture for various pregnancy related concerns carpal tunnel, aches and pains, preparing for induction and the general stress of pregnancy. Amanda's knowledge is amazing and she is able to put you at ease with any concerns you have. The treatments I have received have mainly been to ease pain or to relax and Amanda has certainly met the brief. I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough as she has been an incredible support particularly throughout my second pregnancy. Thank You Amanda 😘xxx

Adele Ford

I have been going to Amanda for many years now for mainly back/neck/shoulder massages and other complementary therapies, and I can highly recommend her. Amanda instantly puts you at ease, she’s very friendly and is keen to understand what support you need from her. The setting is fantastic, very professional but also very warm and comfortable. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else for my treatments :) thanks Amanda xx

Jordan Dey

Amanda continues to be amazing throughout my pregnancy! Amanda has seen me for acupuncture, reflexology and pregnancy massage, each one tailored to suit how I am feeling and based on what stage of pregnancy I am at. She has continued to keep me calm, kept sickness at bay and has provided invaluable information in between midwife appointments. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Laura Green

I saw Amanda during early pregnancy for acupuncture to help with anxiety and also sickness. The acupuncture helped to keep my sickness manageable and I really noticed a difference when I couldn’t make one week. Amanda is very professional, personable and has so much knowledge which instantly puts you at ease. She has lots of tips and really cares about her patients. I’m Looking forward to trying her pregnancy massages later in my pregnant

Zoe Beresford

I first met Amanda when I was going through fertility treatment; I was looking for some "extra" help to compliment the treatments provided by the clinic. Amanda is incredibly knowledgeable about so many aspects of pregnancy and women's health that it soon became clear there was more to work on than just my reproductive system. I went for regular visits and each treatment was bespoke to me, on that day, at that point and sometimes Amanda would work on my anxiety and stress rather than the final goal of pregnancy. Since seeing Amanda, I became pregnant from just the second transfer (after having 2 failed transfers previously). Once I became pregnant, I maintained my regular appointments and Amanda treated all aspects of my health throughout. I experienced quite bad eczema during my pregnancy which became so severe at points that my arms were bleeding but the difference in my skin had to be seen to be believed after an appointment. I was offered all sorts of lotions but the most remarkable difference came from the acupuncture. I also experienced quite high stress and anxiety with the combined pressure of a pregnancy and a demanding job but again, Amanda was able to combine the treatments for pregnancy and well being to ensure I left each appointment in top form. I was able to keep active and fit throughout my pregnancy with very little sickness and able to truly focus on my new baby and what was ahead of me.I recently met my bundle of joy and I honestly couldn't be more grateful to all Amanda has done for me and my family. Not only have I met a true professional who I consider to be one of the best in her field but I have made a friend for life that I will never be able to repay for what she has given me.Thank you Amanda! I would highly recommend you and your services.

Steph Jones

I first visited Amanda in the early stages of my pregnancy, I have fibromyalgia and Amanda put me at ease straight away and her treatment space is so relaxing. I had acupuncture treatments every few weeks during my pregnancy and at the end I had pregnancy massages. The treatments helped with my sleep and my pain as well as normal pregnancy symptoms. If I went longer than two weeks I really noticed the pain returning and the sleep disruption came back. During my treatments I felt instantly calm. Amanda is a great listener, she is really knowledgable and I really looked forward to every visit.

Laura Limer

I had moxibustion off Amanda at the end of my pregnancy when I found out my baby was lying breech. My baby turned at the last minute and I believe that the moxibustion (along with other exercises) encouraged my baby to turn into the right position! Thank you!

Hannah Wheawall

I have been seeing Amanda throughout my pregnancy. Amanda is friendly, approachable, knowledgable and informative. She has really helped me to relax in pregnancy, kept pains at bay and helped to prepare me for the birth. After suffering hip problems in previous pregnancies I decided to go and see Amanda And truly believe that she has helped to keep any pains to a minimum. Amanda is also very professional and has educated me on alternative and complementary therapies which was a new realm to me previously. I would recommend to everyone, whether it be in relation to a specific issue or just to take the time out for a relaxing pregnancy massage.

Kathryn Orme

I found Amanda caring and very sensitive to my personal needs. She was flexible with appointments around my IVF treatment and I always come away from appointments with a sense of calm. I would highly recommend acupuncture with Amanda.

Danielle Henshall

I visited Amanda during 2 cycles of IVF. Amanda was is so professional and knowledgeable. She is really caring and supported me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I didn’t feel like just a client, she is more of a friend. I had acupuncture regularly throughout the IVF and also between cycles for relaxation. For me it really helped and couldn’t have got through the procedures without the acupuncture or Amanda. I highly recommend xxx

Lisa Slinger

I visited Amanda from around 30 weeks pregnant to have acupuncture to help me with pregnancy insomnia and anxiety.... i can honestly say Amanda helped me through the toughest part of my pregnancy and I couldn’t of got through it without her help , it’s such an effective treatment and I couldn’t believe how well it worked for me ... not only is she amazing at what she does , she’s a lovely , professional person aswel... I would highly recommend her ... thank you Amanda xxxx

Claire Lloyd

I cannot recommend Amanda enough. After suffering three miscarriages and being told by the medical professionals that I should stop trying for a baby because I was too old, I now have a beautiful 4 week old baby girl. Amanda is truly professional and goes above and beyond to make you feel relaxed. I have not met anybody as passionate about what they do as Amanda is. Whether trying to conceive or if you need some help and relaxation during your pregnancy I would definitely give Amanda a visit.

Nikki Bagguley

I went to see Amanda after having an ectopic pregnancy followed by a miscarriage. Amanda made me feel at ease, listening to all my concerns and tailoring the treatment to meet my needs. After several treatments I fell pregnant and have continued to have acupuncture to help with morning sickness and general well-being throughout my pregnancy. I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough, she is very professional and reassuring and more importantly cares for those she treats.

Amy Lees

I received a full body massage as a present from my parter, and at 37 weeks it was needed, as I struggled with terrible back pain, at first I was a little anxious as I didn't know what to expect but Amanda was so professional and reassuring that I felt at ease straight away, she's wonderful, went though my questionnaire and asked about the pregnancy so I knew I was 100% suitable for treatment and even offered advice and treatment for PUPPS (pregnancy rash),the massage itself was fantastic, I can't tell enough people how relaxed and calm I felt afterwards, never mind that I felt rejuvenated and refreshed, & to top it off I had a brilliant nights sleep due to the wonderful essential oils Amanda used which she said would help sleep and relaxation and never mind to nourish and refresh my skin. It was a wonderful experience and I can't recommend Amanda any more, it's worth every penny ☺️

Samaira Habib

Can't begin to say how amazing this lady is and how amazing her service is! She helped me get through a condition called PUPPS (PEP) whilst being 30 weeks pregnant. As soon as I decided I would try acupuncture I rang Amanda and she instantly realised how upset and stressed I was and tried to fit me into her busy schedule. I was so thankful of her as the acupuncture has helped immensely. I can now carry on with the rest of my pregnancy with ease

Charlie Mercades

I had a wonderful relaxing full body pregnancy massage last month. Amanda has a unique experience of midwifery and holistic therapy so you feel in good hands when you're pregnant and you need to relax!. I would definitely recommend ��

Debbie Berrisford

Highly recommend, I've had treatment whilst I've been pregnant & it completely relaxed me it was just what I needed. Amanda is a true professional & very passionate & knowledgeable about what she does.

Samantha Carter

I suffered with spd, restlessnes, sleepless uncomfortable nights and very irritable during my third trimester of pregnancy. I was advised by my midwife to try massage and acupuncture and she gave me amandas details. It was the best decision I made, I only had 2 sessions as my baby was nearly 3 weeks early but both massage and acupuncture relaxed me and eased the pain, I had better nights sleep and felt more comfortable. The pain and discomfort did not go away completely however it did help and I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Amanda was really easy to talk to and listened to me, she also told me what she was doing at each stage and the oils she was using and why. It was a great experience and if I ever have another baby I would definitely go for massage and acupuncture by Amanda again. Thank u so much amanda for helping me through my pregnancy and making it more comfortable and pleasurable. Xx

Emma Lou

ive had acupuncture from Amanda for my back, after weeks of not being able to drive I am now mobile again, brilliant, thank you.

Nikki Pattison

Had a lovely relaxing pregnancy massage with Amanda today. New premises and treatment room are lovely. Felt both relaxed and revived following my treatment and my back and pelvis feel better than they have done for weeks. Thanks again Amanda. Will definitely be back for a postnatal treat.

Karen Goodchild

Went to see Amanda a couple of times when I was pregnant and she really helped ease the aches and pains. Would definitely recommend.

Kate Louise

Jenni Hodson

I have had Acupuncture from Amanda and she is an amazing woman. She is always professional yet friendly (which is a talent in itself!!). She really nows her subject, makes you feel comfortable and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. Amanda's work reduces the need for tablets etc which can only be a bonus. Everyone give it a try - it is simply wonderful. Thank you Amanda for all you have done for me xx

Well what can I say??Amanda has helped me through two pregnancies, not only my with acupuncture and wonderful relaxing massages but also through talking therapy.There have been times I’ve turned up at her clinic in tears where she’s soothed and calmed me.Amanda’s has always been at the end of the phone or text to check how I am and to put things into perspective.Amanda totally saved me through my last pregnancy not only mentally but physically, by using moxi-bustion on my 37 week baby boy.Using moxi-bustion in clinic with Amanda and then at home with my partner we managed to turn my breech baby which facilitated me having a wonderful home birth just as I had planned.Thank you Amanda, you are forever a special part of mine and my baby’s lives xxx

Just had the most amazing pregnancy massage with Amanda. My back feels so much better now. Amanda made me feel very at ease & talked me through everything she was doing. I will definitely be returning. Highly recommend

Laura Dubajic

Having seen Amanda twice all I can say is how professional she is and how beneficial her therapies have been for me! I have had a full body pregnancy massage at the beginning of my pregnancy and this was just what I needed! The combination of the massage and the aromatic oils helped calm and relax me. My second visit was for acupuncture for the nausea and sickness which I had been experiencing throughout my pregnancy. Amanda was so gentle and professional and talked me through the acupuncture. After 2 days my nausea had subsided and was much more manageable. I would 100% recommend Amanda and her therapies!

Fehrina Ward

Had a fabulous pregnancy massage with Amanda. It massively helped my sciatica which pretty much disappeared from the day I had my massage (35 weeks) and stayed away until baby delivered (39 weeks). I only wish I had gone a bit sooner. It was so easy to relax around Amanda and I would recommend her pregnancy massages to anyone not just for pregnancy aches and pains but simply for relaxation

Ceri-Ann Turner

I would highly recommend Amanda she is such a kind and lovely lady... at 28 weeks pregnant my baby turned breech and caused horrendous pain and numbness down my left leg I could hardly walk, Amanda managed to get me in straight away, and recommended we try acupuncture and zone therapy to treat the pain I can honestly say the relief I felt from the first session was instant I have sinse continued to have differnt treatments with Amanda and after every session iv felt amazing after.Thank you again Amanda ❤

Rachael Louise Smith

This lady is absolutely fantastic and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I initially went for a pregnancy massage which was so relaxing, however I went back for some post date treatment as I was past my due date and was really anxious about being induced again. Within a few days I went into natural labour and the pain relief advise I received was of a great help. Thank you so much for everything.

Rachel Louise Trelfa

I visited Amanda on a few occasions through out my pregnancy with a few different reason. I was suffering with really bad heads and anxiety. Amanda suggested that I could try accupuntue which I did and it helped me alot. It was in a beautiful relaxed environment and very peaceful. I would recommend Amanda to anyone that needs any treatments that's she provides.

Sarah Myatt

I visited Amanda when I was way past my due date and my induction was imminent. I had been told that my daughters head was not only not engaged, but was so high in my pelvis I was showing no signs of going into spontaneous labour. By visiting Amanda, I was hoping to help my baby engage. I was also feeling very fed up and anxious as to why there was no engagement and what it would mean in my induction. Amanda from the onset of contacting her was incredibly accommodating and professional. She squeezed me in, even though she had a very busy day the day before my induction. As soon as I arrived she made me feel at ease and talked through my situation and worries and what she could do to help. The setting is incredibly relaxing and she helped me to better understand my situation.She performed acupressure to encourage baby to engage, and aromatherapy massage which was incredibly relaxing and soothing! Amanda taught me what she was doing throughout, so I could repeat the techniques on my own to help bring about natural labour. I left feeling much calmer, confident and knowledgeable about my induction and when I was examined on arrival at the hospital, baby’s head was in the pelvic region, so I think the therapy really helped me. Thanks Amanda for all your support.

Laura Adams

After seeing Amanda's post on FB for facial accupunture with the celluma LED light therapy I thought I would give it a try as I have been suffering with red and dry flaky skin on my face. I have know Amanda for several years but only had massages (which are one of the best massages I've ever had) So I had my first treatment at the end of January and I had instant results In fact if it wasn't my face I wouldnt believe the improvement! Amanda is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about her work and she has such a lovely persona making you feel at ease and keeping you comfortable during the treatment and very professional. Amanda starts with the body needles and whilst you can feel them they do not hurt then the facial Needles can be a little bit eye watering but its only the initial entering of the needle. Then the lovely relaxing celluma light is put over your face and then finally a lovely nourishing face mask to end the treatment before removing the Needles. Amanda is not only treating my skin she is unraveling the deeper issues within my body that have caused the traumas to manifestek on my face. Amanda has give me aftercare and recommend many skincare and makeup products to explore that are pure and paraban free. I had my 2nd treatment yesterday and again I noticed a huge different as you will see from the photos. I would definitely recommend Amanda to anyone and she offers various treatments to suit your needs and or concerns.

Natalie Clowes

Amanda has supported me throughout both my pregnancies with massage, acupressure and acupuncture for various pregnancy related concerns carpal tunnel, aches and pains, preparing for induction and the general stress of pregnancy. Amanda's knowledge is amazing and she is able to put you at ease with any concerns you have. The treatments I have received have mainly been to ease pain or to relax and Amanda has certainly met the brief. I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough as she has been an incredible support particularly throughout my second pregnancy. Thank You Amanda 😘xxx

Claire Holly Allman

I have been going to Amanda for many years now for mainly back/neck/shoulder massages and other complementary therapies, and I can highly recommend her. Amanda instantly puts you at ease, she’s very friendly and is keen to understand what support you need from her. The setting is fantastic, very professional but also very warm and comfortable. I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else for my treatments :) thanks Amanda xx

Adele Ford

Amanda continues to be amazing throughout my pregnancy! Amanda has seen me for acupuncture, reflexology and pregnancy massage, each one tailored to suit how I am feeling and based on what stage of pregnancy I am at. She has continued to keep me calm, kept sickness at bay and has provided invaluable information in between midwife appointments. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

Jordan Dey

I saw Amanda during early pregnancy for acupuncture to help with anxiety and also sickness. The acupuncture helped to keep my sickness manageable and I really noticed a difference when I couldn’t make one week. Amanda is very professional, personable and has so much knowledge which instantly puts you at ease. She has lots of tips and really cares about her patients. I’m Looking forward to trying her pregnancy massages later in my pregnant

Laura Green

I first met Amanda when I was going through fertility treatment; I was looking for some "extra" help to compliment the treatments provided by the clinic. Amanda is incredibly knowledgeable about so many aspects of pregnancy and women's health that it soon became clear there was more to work on than just my reproductive system. I went for regular visits and each treatment was bespoke to me, on that day, at that point and sometimes Amanda would work on my anxiety and stress rather than the final goal of pregnancy. Since seeing Amanda, I became pregnant from just the second transfer (after having 2 failed transfers previously). Once I became pregnant, I maintained my regular appointments and Amanda treated all aspects of my health throughout. I experienced quite bad eczema during my pregnancy which became so severe at points that my arms were bleeding but the difference in my skin had to be seen to be believed after an appointment. I was offered all sorts of lotions but the most remarkable difference came from the acupuncture. I also experienced quite high stress and anxiety with the combined pressure of a pregnancy and a demanding job but again, Amanda was able to combine the treatments for pregnancy and well being to ensure I left each appointment in top form. I was able to keep active and fit throughout my pregnancy with very little sickness and able to truly focus on my new baby and what was ahead of me.I recently met my bundle of joy and I honestly couldn't be more grateful to all Amanda has done for me and my family. Not only have I met a true professional who I consider to be one of the best in her field but I have made a friend for life that I will never be able to repay for what she has given me.Thank you Amanda! I would highly recommend you and your services.

Zoe Beresford

I first visited Amanda in the early stages of my pregnancy, I have fibromyalgia and Amanda put me at ease straight away and her treatment space is so relaxing. I had acupuncture treatments every few weeks during my pregnancy and at the end I had pregnancy massages. The treatments helped with my sleep and my pain as well as normal pregnancy symptoms. If I went longer than two weeks I really noticed the pain returning and the sleep disruption came back. During my treatments I felt instantly calm. Amanda is a great listener, she is really knowledgable and I really looked forward to every visit.

Steph Jones

I had moxibustion off Amanda at the end of my pregnancy when I found out my baby was lying breech. My baby turned at the last minute and I believe that the moxibustion (along with other exercises) encouraged my baby to turn into the right position! Thank you!

Laura Limer

I have been seeing Amanda throughout my pregnancy. Amanda is friendly, approachable, knowledgable and informative. She has really helped me to relax in pregnancy, kept pains at bay and helped to prepare me for the birth. After suffering hip problems in previous pregnancies I decided to go and see Amanda And truly believe that she has helped to keep any pains to a minimum. Amanda is also very professional and has educated me on alternative and complementary therapies which was a new realm to me previously. I would recommend to everyone, whether it be in relation to a specific issue or just to take the time out for a relaxing pregnancy massage.

Hannah Wheawall

I found Amanda caring and very sensitive to my personal needs. She was flexible with appointments around my IVF treatment and I always come away from appointments with a sense of calm. I would highly recommend acupuncture with Amanda.

Kathryn Orme

I visited Amanda during 2 cycles of IVF. Amanda was is so professional and knowledgeable. She is really caring and supported me through one of the most difficult times in my life. I didn’t feel like just a client, she is more of a friend. I had acupuncture regularly throughout the IVF and also between cycles for relaxation. For me it really helped and couldn’t have got through the procedures without the acupuncture or Amanda. I highly recommend xxx

Danielle Henshall

I visited Amanda from around 30 weeks pregnant to have acupuncture to help me with pregnancy insomnia and anxiety.... i can honestly say Amanda helped me through the toughest part of my pregnancy and I couldn’t of got through it without her help , it’s such an effective treatment and I couldn’t believe how well it worked for me ... not only is she amazing at what she does , she’s a lovely , professional person aswel... I would highly recommend her ... thank you Amanda xxxx

Lisa Slinger

I cannot recommend Amanda enough. After suffering three miscarriages and being told by the medical professionals that I should stop trying for a baby because I was too old, I now have a beautiful 4 week old baby girl. Amanda is truly professional and goes above and beyond to make you feel relaxed. I have not met anybody as passionate about what they do as Amanda is. Whether trying to conceive or if you need some help and relaxation during your pregnancy I would definitely give Amanda a visit.

Claire Lloyd

I went to see Amanda after having an ectopic pregnancy followed by a miscarriage. Amanda made me feel at ease, listening to all my concerns and tailoring the treatment to meet my needs. After several treatments I fell pregnant and have continued to have acupuncture to help with morning sickness and general well-being throughout my pregnancy. I cannot recommend Amanda highly enough, she is very professional and reassuring and more importantly cares for those she treats.

Nikki Bagguley

I received a full body massage as a present from my parter, and at 37 weeks it was needed, as I struggled with terrible back pain, at first I was a little anxious as I didn't know what to expect but Amanda was so professional and reassuring that I felt at ease straight away, she's wonderful, went though my questionnaire and asked about the pregnancy so I knew I was 100% suitable for treatment and even offered advice and treatment for PUPPS (pregnancy rash),the massage itself was fantastic, I can't tell enough people how relaxed and calm I felt afterwards, never mind that I felt rejuvenated and refreshed, & to top it off I had a brilliant nights sleep due to the wonderful essential oils Amanda used which she said would help sleep and relaxation and never mind to nourish and refresh my skin. It was a wonderful experience and I can't recommend Amanda any more, it's worth every penny ☺️

Amy Lees

Can't begin to say how amazing this lady is and how amazing her service is! She helped me get through a condition called PUPPS (PEP) whilst being 30 weeks pregnant. As soon as I decided I would try acupuncture I rang Amanda and she instantly realised how upset and stressed I was and tried to fit me into her busy schedule. I was so thankful of her as the acupuncture has helped immensely. I can now carry on with the rest of my pregnancy with ease

Samaira Habib

Highly recommend, I've had treatment whilst I've been pregnant & it completely relaxed me it was just what I needed. Amanda is a true professional & very passionate & knowledgeable about what she does.

Debbie Berrisford

I suffered with spd, restlessnes, sleepless uncomfortable nights and very irritable during my third trimester of pregnancy. I was advised by my midwife to try massage and acupuncture and she gave me amandas details. It was the best decision I made, I only had 2 sessions as my baby was nearly 3 weeks early but both massage and acupuncture relaxed me and eased the pain, I had better nights sleep and felt more comfortable. The pain and discomfort did not go away completely however it did help and I would definitely recommend this to anyone. Amanda was really easy to talk to and listened to me, she also told me what she was doing at each stage and the oils she was using and why. It was a great experience and if I ever have another baby I would definitely go for massage and acupuncture by Amanda again. Thank u so much amanda for helping me through my pregnancy and making it more comfortable and pleasurable. Xx

Samantha Carter

ive had acupuncture from Amanda for my back, after weeks of not being able to drive I am now mobile again, brilliant, thank you.

Emma Lou

Had a lovely relaxing pregnancy massage with Amanda today. New premises and treatment room are lovely. Felt both relaxed and revived following my treatment and my back and pelvis feel better than they have done for weeks. Thanks again Amanda. Will definitely be back for a postnatal treat.

Nikki Pattison

Went to see Amanda a couple of times when I was pregnant and she really helped ease the aches and pains. Would definitely recommend.

Karen Goodchild

Had a couple of amazing massages off Amanda when I was pregnant. She really helped with my sciatica and really made me feel relaxed defiantly recommend her!! Xx

Kate Louise

I have had Acupuncture from Amanda and she is an amazing woman. She is always professional yet friendly (which is a talent in itself!!). She really nows her subject, makes you feel comfortable and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. Amanda's work reduces the need for tablets etc which can only be a bonus. Everyone give it a try - it is simply wonderful. Thank you Amanda for all you have done for me xx
