 | |  | | "I was having chemotherapy, following surgery for breast cancer, when I first went to Maria for acupuncture. I had some nausea, hot flushes, I was low in energy and my head felt "foggy". Apart from the acupuncture really helping to relieve these symptoms, I felt very reassured by Maria because she understood, from her own experience with cancer, how I was feeling. I found her gentle yet strong. She was able to give me advice on ways to cope and on resources available that could be of help if I wanted. I have continued to go to Maria to maintain my health. I would highly recommend her to others." Alison | |
