Testimonial

'After failing to get pregnant for several years and failed courses of stimulated IUI, I was about to embark on the dreaded IVF rollercoaster. As a western medical practitioner I was sceptical about turning to acupuncture but then I read an article in The Observer reporting a study in which IVF success rates were increased with the addition of specialist acupuncture. This was all the evidence I needed. I was on the internet the next day and found Pam!
I now have a healthy beautiful baby boy. We were successful with our second round of IVF, having seen Pam regularly before the start of treatment and throughout the pregnancy. I think I went to Pam too late in the first cycle. I now have great faith in this complimentary therapy, but also most importantly in Pam. Being able to visist her regularly and voice all my concerns and anxieties was brilliant. She's a great listener, gives sensible, pragmatic advice and taught me to relax despite needles!
If we decide to embark on number two, I will be sure to get on the blower to Pam. I would recommend her to anyone considering acupuncture to aid conception.'
