Thank you so much more than words can convey!" Smita R

"Saffron was fantastic! I found my face reading hugely insightful -
enabling me to further identify strengths and weaknesses, but also
allowing me the opportunity to talk through various topics at the same
time. A number of things became a lot clearer as a result of my
consultation - not so much about my future as about my character. I can't recommend the opportunity to get your face read enough." MW
"The face readings were very insightful, and everyone enjoyed receiving them. It was a novel way of kicking off our company event. I would definitely recommend them." Company name withheld on request.

Acupuncture testimonials
"Before I met Saffron, life was really starting to get me down and I was bogged under a mass of problems. I suffer from PMT and found it difficult to balance my head. I have now been seeing Saffron for weekly appointments and I can see much clearer, I am less stressed and I cope with the negatives that life throws my way!" SH
"Once a month I became very irrational, belligerent and also suffered from mild depression. A course of acupuncture with Saffron really helped not only my PMT but my sinus problem as well! I whole heartedly endorse her work."

"I first received acupuncture from Saffron when I started to suffer from acute anxiety brought on by stress. Saffron's calm, kind and empathetic nature was exactly what I needed at a time when I was very frightened and debilitated by panic attacks. Saffron is very skilled and professional, and I have no doubt that the acupuncture played a major role in my recovery. If you need compassionate, effective help, then look no further. I can't recommend Saffron highly enough." DS, west London
"I received acupuncture treatment from Saffron Ellidge after suffering a very painful bout of sciatica (lower back pain) which had left me unable to work for a couple of weeks, followed by months of back pain (including shooting pains down my legs) - all of which made carrying on with life as normal, as I'd been lucky enough to do for 26 years before this, quite difficult! I'd heard anecdotally that acupuncture can help alleviate back pain. As I was, by that point, using quite a lot of strong painkillers to keep the pain at bay I thought I'd try acupuncture instead. I met Saffron for my initial consultation and was immediately put at ease by her calm, warm manner. I didn't know much about acupuncture before (and was a little nervous of the needles) and was suprised to learn that it doesn't just work in a physical way - Saffron took a kind of 'life-history' - to get a holistic overview of me emotionally and physically, as a person, not just the problem then and there. Saffron is a great listener and her calm, kind manner made it easy to talk to her about many aspects of my life. I have always suspected that back pain, in particular, isn't just a physical complaint and that pain of that kind is linked up to a person's emotions too. After the initial consultation I saw Saffron for about six or seven sessions where she treated me using needles, and the other ones (I forget the name - the warm ones!!). Initially I'd felt anxious that the needles would cause me pain, but actually they weren't that uncomfortable at all - most of the time you feel nothing, and occasionally you might feel a small, sharp sensation, or a tingling. For me the benefits were immediate - within 24 hours of each session my usual pain subsided, I felt more relaxed and less anxious, which helped me carry my body in a different, less tensed way. In the first few weeks I saw Saffron once every ten days. I noticed the back pain returning at first between sessions after a week or so. However as I continued seeing Saffron the intervals between acupuncture sessions became pain-free. I was thrilled. My body felt more flexible, the pain had disappeared - I didn't feel or, worse in some ways, fear the pain any more that would make me wince if the bus lurched or make me unable to turn over at night in bed. I felt completely confident with Saffron - she is a natural born healer! I would totally recommend anybody who feels acupuncture might help them in their life to go to Saffron."

"The acupuncture sessions that I had with Saffron really helped with symptoms of IBS I had been suffering with for over a year, which included regular stomach upsets, fatigue and stress. I found it difficult to concentrate on my work and my confidence was affected. The treatments I received were painless and I always felt relaxed and so much better afterwards. I also received treatments for a persistent cough, which was again really effective. Saffron is very professional and I would highly recommend her practice." RD
"I had tried several different ways to cease smoking. Three years ago I went to Saffron with an open mind and tried acupuncture. Since that day I have not smoked, or even thought about smoking. I am healthier & wealthier, thanks to Saffron. I must add that I had been smoking for 40 years. I have also received acupuncture for arthritis in my hands, which does relieve the aching. I would recommend Saffron's acupuncture treatment to anybody." Mick
"I was quite nervous about having acupuncture before I had my first session, but Saffron has the most wonderful, calming aura - and I couldn't believe how effective the treatment was. I've long suffered from anxiety - and eczema as a result - and both were noticeably reduced after my sessions. She also helped me gain a better understanding of my body and health as a whole. I can't recommend her highly enough!" Caroline Macdougall
"I went to acupuncture as I suffer from migraines. The treatment really helped to decrease the frequency of the migraines I used to get. Saffron was really friendly and helpful; if I had something else that was troubling me when I went and saw her, she took time out to help with that, not just the migraines." SW
