“A friend asked me how I was and I told her I had been
suffering from a bad cold for over 5 months and was not
sleeping very well. She suggested I try Acupuncture as it
had cured her Hay Fever, and she recommended Dominic
Rushmore at the Oxford Street Therapy Centre in
Wellingborough. (I was familiar with the Centre as in the
past I had successfully received treatment from the Remedial
Spinal Therapist and the Podiatrist , at a time when my GP
could only suggest painkillers for my bad back.) As well as
suffering from long-term loss of sleep, I was depressed and
experiencing panic attacks due to not being able to breath
properly, so I decided Acupuncture was worth a try. Before
making an appointment at the Therapy Centre I went
onto http://www.acupuncture.org.uk[http://www.acupuncture.org.uk/] website
to see if Acupuncture could help my symptoms, which it said
it could, and I also checked that Dominic was a registered
member of the British Acupuncture Council. I arrived for my
first visit with Dominic and he very quickly put me at my
ease, and asked me lots of questions about my health and
lifestyle. I was very relieved when he said he felt
confident he could get rid of my cold and estimated it would
take approximately 4-5 sessions. He explained how
Acupuncture worked and that the needles were very fine and
only used once before being disposed of. It was a painless
procedure and I began to feel some relief within a few
minutes of my first treatment ending. By my fourth visit my
longstanding cold had virtually disappeared and I was
feeling much better than I had in months. However, there was
a most unexpected bonus for me! Like many older women I have
had a weak bladder for many years. After a couple of
treatments I began to notice that my trips to the toilet had
dramatically reduced, which has improved my quality of life
immensely.”
