"After being diagnosed with polycystic ovaries I felt very helpless and needed to do something positive about the situation. I found the whole experience of acupuncture very uplifting, and after approximately two months of treatment I fell pregnant and now have a beautiful baby boy. What more can I say?!"
[Pippa Winter]
"Tom is not just an acupuncturist. He has an innate sensitivity that seems to allow him to simply feel what is wrong with you. When he asks you something, the question is often more telling than the resulting answer, and his sessions leave you feeling ..well, healed is the only word, really."
[Peter Dunne]
"Since having the acupuncture and herbs I have felt much calmer, happier and much more able to deal with life, something that I was finding increasingly difficult to do since the birth of my son."
[Susan Trim]
"I was suffering from agonizing back pain and even the strongest prescription painkillers were ineffective. After one treatment the pain literally disappeared within twenty-four hours. I have been back many times since for other ailments I or my children have had."
[Fiona Kimmins]
"I went to see Tom because I had a hernia operation and after that I got very grumpy in the mornings. But when I had the needles it didn't hurt. He showed me the channels on the body of the model, which went down the body from the head to the feet and showed me where I was cut on the channel. It mended the cut and made me feel better."
[Amadea Kimmins, 8 yrs]
"I visited Tom because I had ulcers in my mouth. When I had the needles it was nothing and did not hurt. It's very interesting the way the needles affect your body. Twenty-four hours later my ulcers had gone and I felt totally relaxed."
[Celestria Kimmins 12 yrs]
"Acupuncture has not only helped me considerably with a medical issue but has also enabled me to understand my body and my emotions much more.
Tom does not simply place needles into the necessary parts of the body, he listens and helps you understand your emotions and fears - all the time helping you overcome the problem for which you are seeing him.
It is amazing how a man can educate you to embrace the natural feelings you have as a woman, which we often try so hard to suppress due to the stress of work, home and general every-day life complications."
[Kelly George]
"The effectiveness of the acupuncture treatment meant that I didn't have to have an unwanted operation. Hospital scans proved the difference that acupuncture had made."
[Siobhan FitzPatrick]
"I had a painful and debilitating issue with my knee which made even walking painful. I was due to go skiing within six weeks which would have been impossible had my knee not improved. Three acupuncture appointments improved the condition to such an extent that I was able to ski absolutely normally."
[Huw Williams]
"Tom has a gift with people, he is perceptive, sensitive and caring. I felt totally understood and nurtured by the treatment I received from him. Although I initially started seeing him for one problem - the 'whole' of me was treated, and as a result I benefited as a whole. Each session enabled me to feel in balance and gave me inner strength. I learnt more about myself and how to look after my mind and body through his knowledge and expertise - long may it continue..."
[Kirsty Moseley]
"Tom helped me out with a pain in my mouth that neither my dentist nor doctor could make better. He is a great healer and his professional manner makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. I would now consult him before going to my GP."
[Kate Freemantle]
"The benefits I have experienced in the short time of receiving treatment (just five sessions) have radically altered aspects of my life, much for the better. Recently I was in excruciating pain from a neck injury so much so that I couldn't sleep. Just one session of acupuncture alleviated the problem, which wasn't muscular, as I'd assumed, by eighty per cent. On both counts no one could have effectively conveyed what a profound effect an hour with a few needles could have on a life."
[Anthony Guyon]
"I always feel like a million dollars after seeing Tom. However tired, stressed or aching beyond belief, it is as if he has washed away in forty-five minutes all the bad things and just left me with everything good."
[Rachel Duffield]
"Acupuncture and Chinese herbs have improved my well-being in so many ways over the years. Over and above these benefits, Tom has a quality about him that gives you more - his intuition, calmness and personal concern, has helped me establish general well-being and balance for problems both large and small. I always walk away with a deep feeling of all round recovery, inner strength and health."
[Gabby, migraine]
"Overall, acupuncture has totally re-energised me and turned my world around. I have no pain, no PMT, I'm calmer, I sleep better, I've lost a stone in weight, my asthma is under control and I feel in harmony with my own body - what a result and one achieved without the use of conventional medicine".
[Elizabeth Webster]
"I had a very serious operation four years ago and because of the shock related to this operation, my shoulder was aching and my left arm felt numb. When I went to see Tom a few months ago I didn't think I would regain all of the sensations in my arm, I was merely looking for an improvement. However, it took just two sessions to put almost everything right."
[Jerome Badoux]
"The original reasons for going to Tom have become a little blurred. Over the past six months I have had a variety of 'problems' ranging from a sore back to night sweats, insomnia, headaches, stress... Although I have made little effort to change lifestyle or diet, I feel healthy, incredibly calm, have had little or no depression even though, during this period, I have had some fairly significant issues to deal with. My headaches are down to one a week rather than one or two a day, night sweats are almost non-existent, and my sleeping patterns have changed completely!
Whilst acupuncture could be considered by many as a physiological treatment the approach of the practitioner is incredibly important, both in terms of allaying any fears and providing an environment where you feel you can discuss symptoms and affects in total confidence. Tom has an unbelievable approach, a hugely caring 'bedside manner' - all tempered with a good sense of humour."
[Rene Adams]
"Since receiving acupuncture and herbs our lives have been greatly enhanced. We are more positively focused and are experiencing renewed energy. The health benefits are too numerous to mention! Areas of vast improvement include; back pain, anxiety/stress, migraines. Tom is an experienced practitioner who delights in helping others".
[Mark and Judi Holt]
"Having acupuncture from Tom has really changed my life. I no longer struggle with the symptoms of migraines, my energy levels have improved dramatically, and I am now living a richer and fuller life. I'm delighted".
[Pat Scrogie]
"Several years ago I had glandular fever quite badly which resulted in recurring bouts of chronic fatigue. Conventional medicine couldn't help and I tried acupuncture as a last resort at the suggestion of a friend. I was surprised at how quickly the acupuncture helped and nearly a year on, the fatigue has not recurred. It's also reassuring to know how to deal with it should it happen again!"
[Alexandra D'Arcy-Irvine]
"I was very scared of the thought of using needles but Tom's friendly, gentle manner put me at ease. Just one wonderfully relaxing treatment rid me of the numerous aches and pains of looking after a baby for a year. I would recommend going to see him for any ailment."
[Lisa van Koetsveld]
"From tears to smiles in less than an hour."
[Eve Grant, migraine]
"My experience with acupuncture and herbs has been very positive. I felt instantly at ease with Tom as he is a very warm, natural, calming individual and practitioner. I am particularly interested in the theory and principles of the therapy, and had been suffering from anxiety and panic for several months. During and after the acupuncture sessions, I experienced an overwhelming sense of calm and happiness. I always looked forward to my appointments as they made me feel better mentally, emotionally and physically. I would recommend acupuncture to anyone seeking an alternative and natural therapy - in fact I am even looking into studying it, and other related therapies, in the future."
[Morven Macleod]
"I used to equate acupuncture with witch doctors and all that... and only went to Tom as a last resort to help cure a crippling fear of flying. It was a revelation. Not only do I now fly, but for the first time in my life I've started eating properly. It was always the 'alternative' that made me suspicious of this kind of medicine but Tom is reassuringly normal. I'm no hippy - ok, I do now drink soya milk - but I am a convert. You can't beat the warm glow of having your energy waves bent back into shape."
[John Dower]
"Gemma (8yrs) seems to be much happier. She's eating a much healthier diet - trying out all sorts of new food and keeping to her wheat and dairy free diet with ease! I'm so pleased with the change in her - thank you very much for all your help and advice."
[Gemma's mother]
"I originally went to Tom for an IBS-type illness, called ulcerative colitis, in January 2002. The treatment he gave me was so much more than acupuncture... my sessions with him changed my perception of myself, which proved to be a far more long-term and valuable experience. Through acupuncture I accepted responsibility for my illness. My lifestyle, and lack of regard for the needs of my body [along with an extended period of antibiotics], had weakened my system. By accepting responsibility for my condition I also accepted that a change in lifestyle would help cure it - rather than the prescribed medication which my consultant said would only ever help manage it. Tom encouraged me to start yoga, and introduced me to a nutritional therapist. Initially I was resistant to both ideas, but in July I went to see the nutritional therapist, and in September took myself off on a yoga holiday to kick start this 'new me'. One year on, I am completely cured. It was not easy, but every step I took not only helped me cure the physical weakness in my body, but opened up a world of empowerment and opportunity that I had been completely oblivious to. I continue to see Tom once every three weeks to keep me balanced; my life is unrecognisable to that of 18 months ago when I first went to see him. The over-exercising, stressed-out party girl is no more. I start my yoga teacher-training course this September and I have been successfully running my own business for over 10 months. I'm the happiest I have ever been."
