Benefits of Treatment
The British Acupuncture Council has produced fact sheets for the conditions listed below. The aim is to provide accurate and unbiased summaries of research and how acupuncture may be beneficial. You should always consult your GP if you have any concerns or talk to a BAcC registered acupuncturist.

Many people come to acupuncture for help with specific symptoms or to relieve specific pains like osteoarthritis of the knee. Some use acupuncture because they feel generally unwell but have no obvious diagnosis. Others choose acupuncture simply to enhance their feeling of wellbeing. Acupuncture is considered suitable for all ages including babies and children. It can be used effectively alongside conventional medicine. It can be administered without using needles.
Remember that acupuncturists treat the person, not just the condition which they have, so each patient's treatment plan will be different. However, you can always ask your practitioner about other patients experiences, to give you an idea of what to expect. Many people return to acupuncture again and again because they find it so beneficial and relaxing.
In 2009 the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence recommended that acupuncture should be made available on the NHS, as a cost-effective short-term treatment for the management of early, persistent non-specific lower back pain.

Testimonials I have been treated by Clare Ward for about 2 years where she has treated me for a number of problems. Due to the nature of my work, running and owning a busy horse livery yard where my days are very demanding and physical. I did suffer from a bad back, joint problems, and migraines. I have been to various people to try and fix me but with no great success.
Since being with Clare my problems have got better ,my migraines have gone, my back and joints problems are under control and recently after falling off damaging my coller bone and ligaments they are also getting better.I do believe that through Clare with her knowledge , expertise and patience she has done what may people haven't and that's fixing me and keeping me going. I can't recommend her highly enough.

'I used acupuncture for the first time when I was pregnant with my first baby and suffering quite badly with hormonal anxiety and depression. I found that acupuncture really worked for me, and it was invaluable to be able to call on this natural and safe therapy as an 'extra' in conjunction with the treatments prescribed by my GP. Clare also used acupuncture treatments to prepare my body for labour and birth, and I credit these for my daughter's calm, quick and gentle delivery. I used acupuncture again in my second pregnancy, this time for severe sickness, and again found it worked brilliantly. This time round we also used it to bring on labour when my baby was 3 days overdue - and within 48 hours he was here, again very quickly and easily. My son and I went back to see Clare again post-natally, which was a lovely and relaxing experience for us to enjoy together. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend acupuncture, and Clare is a very effective, thorough and thoughtful therapist with a lovely kind manner. I look forward to using her again!' AS
I started having acupuncture after suffering from panic attacks and anxieties for 20 years. It has been my life saver, unfortunately it didn't save my marriage, but has really helped me through the healing process of the break up and I can't thank Clare enough for all she has done through acupuncture. I haven't had a panic attack since having acupuncture and I have certainly dealt with situations I would have avoided before, my very big challenge will be in the summer to get on a plane for the first time in 5 years, really hoping that the acupuncture will help? I would recommend anyone to give acupuncture a go especially with Clare. IR
I was a little unsure about acupuncture initially however having had regular sessions during two difficult pregnancies in the past 3 years I am a complete convert. The treatment helped me with morning sickness and with abdominal pain that the doctors couldnt really explain. It was fantastic not to have to take medication constantly and to come away from a session with Clare feeling so much better. The pre-birth treatment that Clare offers was also brilliant and I would strongly suggest it to any mum to be. My whole experience of acupuncture has been fantastic and I would recommend it and Clare to anyone without hesitation you will feel the benefit. Dr JL
