Testimonials

I'm writing this to thank Ying for my baby twins through first IVF!

After trying for 5 years without success, I started to get worried. Laparoscopy found a mild endometriosis. I put myself on the IVF waiting list and went to Ying for acupuncture on the recommendation of a friend who got pregnant on the first attempt with IVF and acupuncture.

I went for acupuncture fortnightly for several months and took some herbal pills as my period was a bit light. When my IVF treatment came, Ying said I was ready for it. I produced plenty of follicles on a medium dose of FSH, so they reduced the dose after the first scan. Two embryos were put back in and both implanted! My family and I couldn't believe it and Ying was so happy for me! Ying carried on seeing me until I was 12 weeks to make sure everything was fine. Throughout the whole procedure I felt pretty chilled, not as stressed as some women. I slept well every night.

I had a very healthy pregnancy - not much morning sickness, no backache. My blood pressure was normal, iron level was good, and my baby twins-one boy and one girl arrived on term. I couldn't be happier.

Difficulty Conceiving

I stopped taking the contraceptive pill when I got married at the age of 38 after taking them for nearly 20 years. I was assuming I would fall pregnant straight away, but 9 months passed and nothing happened at all. Tests showed that everything was normal. At that time my hay fever was quite bad and I didn't want to take so many drugs while I was trying for a baby.

I heard acupuncture can help with hay fever so I went to Ying on a recommendation. My hay fever got better after only a couple of sessions. Then Ying started to focus on enhancing my fertility. With acupuncture and some herbal pills, my period became regular and four months later I found myself pregnant. I still can't believe it when I look at my beautiful baby girl, and we have already started trying for a second.

Successful IVF

After three unsuccessful attempts at IVF treatment, we began to lose hope. My period had stopped for over a year after the third IVF treatment. I was given HRT and my period came, but as soon as I stopped HRT my periods stopped again. I was fed up with my body being bombarded with all the hormone drugs. They made me feel awful - I was feeling tired all the time, I had lower back ache, and I was an emotional wreck.

I was wondering whether there was any natural way of getting my body back to normal. I did some research on the internet and I was very interested to find that acupuncture can boost the chances of successful IVF. After a few months of acupuncture and Chinese herbs with Ying, my period returned and was regular. I underwent IVF again. This time I became pregnant and gave birth to our beautiful daughter Kate.

Tennis Elbow

I developed tennis elbow six months ago which was stopping me from playing Golf. I tried anti-inflammatory/pain medicines from my GP & also physical therapy, which did not work.

After six months I was about to give up my much loved Golf when a friend repeated some advice to me about Ying Liu & how acupuncture had helped them with a similar issue.

I have to point out that I was a complete sceptic, but with nothing to lose I made two appointments. After the first appointment I could feel a real difference & after the second I was back to playing Golf and wishing I had taken my friends advice earlier!

I have now recommended Ying Liu & acupuncture to my friends & would consider it first before going to see my GP with any muscular issues in the future.

Urethral Syndrome

Ying was very knowledgeable and took a real interest in understanding my GP prescribed medication and explaining benefit of acupuncture.

The treatment helped enormously and on the odd recurrence one or two sessions have helped. It has made a massive difference to my quality of life. Many thanks.

Breast Cancer

Eight months ago I was diagnosed with cancer of the breast which had spread to my lungs and lymph nodes.

For six months I have been treated with an “anti-oestrogen” drug which is known to have a variety of unpleasant side effects.

I found out about a scientific study that compared the severity of side effects on women who had acupuncture and those that didn't. The results stated categorically that acupuncture reduced side effects considerably.

I am delighted to say that this has been the case for me and not only have I experienced minimal side effects I have also had considerable continuing reduction of the cancer nodes at both of my last monthly scans. In fact I am feeling healthier in myself than I have done for the last few years.

Excellent support and service. Thank you so much Ying.

Weight Loss

For years I've had to watch my weight. I'm a person who puts on weight from just looking at food. My problem became worse 6 years ago when I lost my mum due to cancer. Within a very short time I had put on over 3 stone, which made me even more distressed. I sunk into a deep depression.

A friend suggested that I try Chinese medicine. It became a turning point. After a consultation with Ying we decided on a course of treatment. It has changed my life completely. I've lost over 3 stone.

Ying was more than helpful. I felt relaxed and happy. My confidence has returned and I feel like a new woman.

Why not call in for a chat, it could make all the difference to your life.

Sciatica

After over a month of visits to my GP who was unable to offer any treatment other than painkillers and finally to forget the problem a friend recommended acupuncture .

At my wits end and with pain in my back, buttocks and down both legs, unable to stand sit or walk for any length of time I arrived as recommended at Ying’s clinic.

After explaining my problems to Ying she smiled and informed me it was Sciatica and not serious but it would take several treatments.

To my great relief and after the first treatment some of the pain had eased.

The next few weeks treatment enabled me to return to work and begin to take exercise walking regularly as recommended, which I still continue to do.

I now only receive maintenance treatment every two months at which Ying also treats any other problems I may have for which I am extremely grateful and recommend her treatment to all.

Neck Pain

I am writing this in order to recommend Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine. Just under two years ago I was in extreme pain and was unable to turn my head of lift my left arm, which in my job, milking and looking after three hundreds dairy cows, was causing me great difficulty.

A friend advised me of acupuncture, and told me of Ying. Although a little sceptical I was prepared to try anything. After 3 weeks I was completely mobile again. I have also had treatment since then for other painful condition and found it completely successful.

In addition to her excellent clinical skill, Ying is very kind and considerate. After the experience that I had I would recommend Ying unreservedly.

Eczema

Two years ago I developed eczema on both my legs. I tried various creams that my doctor prescribed but they didn't help at all. The itchiness drove me mad.

A friend of mine, who is a GP, suggested I try Chinese herbs. He said there had been some research carried out on Chinese Herbal medicine in dermatology, but make sure go to a well qualified Chinese doctor.

I have always been interested in Chinese medicine so I went to Ying. She gave me dietary advise and some herbs to boil up. They tasted horrible, but they worked! After a couple of weeks the skin on my legs was so much better. I have been fine ever since.
