Suffering from an irritating condition with the left side of my neck, I went online and decided to take a chance with seeking treatment from Lena Fong who is a member of the official British Acupuncturist body. I have not been to an acupuncturist for over 20 years so there was a degree of scepticism as to the outcome. I do not embrace alternative medical techniques readily.

After 3 treatments I found that the problem had been alleviated .
What  particularly impressed me with Lena was the honest approach from the start reassuring me that she wanted to see me treated as quickly as possible and had no intention of getting patients to return for further treatment  when there was no need.

The sessions themselves were carried out on the basis of mutual trust. Lena always when putting the needles into the key channel points asked whether I could feel the effect of the needles and whether it was causing me any discomfiture. She would not do anything to discomfort the patient.

Lena was very calming in manner, good humoured and was always keen on getting the patient’s input during the 45 minute appointment. I would recommend her.

19th October 2010- Fertility

After coming off  The Pill,  it took longer than I had hoped to get my cycle back on track which obviously provided quite a hurdle in terms of trying to get pregnant!  Having been recommended Lena by a friend I thought I would give acupuncture a try. Despite previously been sceptical about alternative treatments, I was keen to embrace any chance there was to help the situation.  Lena was utterly brilliant  - we immediately clicked, which is important when you are discussing such intimate topics, and we had great fun at our meetings – I would look forward to our weekly sessions for the relaxation, the fun chat and the positive feeling that I would leave Mulberry House with afterwards.  After only a few weeks I could see changes in my cycle and was very fortunate in falling pregnant soon after starting my sessions with Lena.  I have continued to see her on a weekly basis in the first trimester and have been incredibly fortunate in feeling extremely well throughout, much of which I put down to these sessions.  Lena was also incredibly committed in managing to fit me in for a last minute appointment when I had early pregnancy concerns.  I would strongly recommend her to anyone – not least for the fun 45 minutes you can spend and that wonderful sleep on her table!
