After trying to conceive for two years unsuccessfully, and suffering one miscarriage I decided to try accupuncture. Ali was extremely supportive from the outset and provided me with a different, welcome perspective on something that was becoming very frustrating emotionally and physically draining. From the first appointment I felt immediately relaxed and over the course of the next few weeks had noticed a huge improvement to my skin (mild acne due to pcos). Ali gave me homework after each session tailored specifically to what needed to improve and I followed this to the letter (none of it was unpleasant!) incredibly after only 6 weeks I discovered I was pregnant! I started seeing Ali weekly from this time to ensure the pregnancy was rooted and supported. This was so reassuring for me, particularly after my earlier miscarriage. I’m now 12 weeks pregnant and feeling fantastic and confident about my pregnancy, Ali was even able to help with my morning sickness when it struck at 7 weeks! Magic! I don’t know how or why acupuncture worked for me and to be honest I don’t care – it worked! Sometimes it’s just a question of putting your faith in something and someone else. I’ve already recommended Ali to good friends that are experiencing the same difficulties as I have every faith in her success rate.

I have so much to thank Ali for, not only did she help me recover from a second trimester miscarriage but after 6 years of doctors telling me I couldn’t carry a baby to term Ali helped me prepare my body and get pregnant the first cycle trying again. Ali helped me manage my gestational diabetes and her induction acupuncture meant the hospital could break my waters and I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy within 3.5 hours. Thank you Ali!

From my very first appointment with Ali I began to feel hopeful that my health could be restored. I had been suffering with recurrent cystitis on and off for ten years and really was at my wits end. My doctor repeatedly prescribed antibiotics to clear up the infection but never helped to address the underlying causes which meant I was susceptible to infection in the first place. Since I began acupuncture with Ali I have managed to get my infections under control and managed to be infection free for almost a year now, I haven’t required antibiotics for 9 months which is unbelievable! I really believe the acupuncture has been the main reason for this improvement. Ali made me feel comfortable talking about the issues I had from the start and has been a great support throughout this process. I could not recommend her more highly!

I first saw Ali in Sept 12 and she used Acupuncture to clear my headaches, reduce spotting, period pain, sore breasts, improve cervical secretions and balance emotions. On session 5 I felt amazing, not stressed one single bit, like a switch had been turned off. By session 10 I had no clots, no pain, my PMS was under control and I had a 28 day cycle (was 34 days in the past). Ali used Acupuncture alongside my IVF and on 24th Sept 13 I was 5 weeks pregnant !! I am now 15 weeks and feel great! I would definitely recommend Ali she has helped me thorough a difficult journey to become pregnant and has always kept me positive and calm.

I have visited Ali approx 5 times during the past 7 months and would highly recommend her excellent Acupuncture approach.
I had previously received treatment for recurrent miscarriages and had one daughter.
I saw Ali before becoming pregnant with my second child. I had suffered two further miscarriages and was completely drained as well as losing all hope.
After the first visit I felt so so much lighter, optimistic and healthier!
Ali took the time to listen, understand and then offer some very valuable advice as well as wisdom.
Its been an eventful journey over the past 7 months and I am now 22 weeks pregnant with a very healthy baby :).
Thank you so much Ali, I shall return for post-natal calming!

Review for Alyia.
I have suffered with chronic eye irritation for over ten years: this involves all year round itchy eyes and eyelids; also inflammation which sometimes causes swelling.
I spent two years having appointments at the eye hospital but they said there was nothing wrong with the health of my eyes and prescribed dry eye drops which gave little relief.
I visit my doctor at least six times a year but he says there is nothing he can do for me, apart from give me anti-histamine and steroid eye-drops occasionally. The only relief I have had is by using steroid eye drops but these are dangerous if used too frequently and for long periods of time as they cause cataracts.
I have used every type of eye drop available and have also used countless supplements to improve eye health but nothing seemed to work and I began to believe I would always suffer this discomfort.
Acupuncture was the end of the road for me and I really did not hold out much hope. I was reasonably sceptical but also open to any possible relief for a chronic condition.
While I did not experience immediate results, I did feel much calmer after a couple of sessions and my skin got noticeably healthier and less dry (I have suffered with eczema for years and accepted it as non-curable).
Acupuncture seeks to rebalance the body and so I could understand the logic of its benefits in terms of allergic conditions as these often arise from imbalance and the body overacting. In this sense steroids help because they repress these reactions but they don’t in any way cure them.
I had a major setback a couple of months after first having acupuncture every two weeks for three months, but thereafter I got so much better and my family began to comment on it. I still had itchy eyes but the redness disappeared and subsequently my eyes did feel far less itchy and I began to feel I had my eyes back.
Alyia is highly professional – she doesn’t promise instant cures although she believes in them. She listens and responds sensitively. She is direct in her questioning but not intrusive and you get the feeling the answers to the questions are for your benefit, not hers. She is totally positive unlike most of the health professionals I have consulted and adapts her treatment to you as a person.
Sometimes I thought if this doesn’t work, I’ll come anyway because I feel much calmer afterwards. But the truth is my eyes are so much better – the first thing I noticed was the redness went – they were much clearer – my skin was clearer – everything seemed clearer.
I am not totally cured but for the first time in more than ten years I am beginning to believe I will not have to live with this condition for life. I can’t tell you how good that feels.

I was recommended to have acupuncture by a friend. My life has changed since meeting Ali. I was going thorough the menopause hot flushes no energy aches and pains. I’ve been going now for a year and it’s the best life changing move I’ve made. If any woman of that centain age is going through the same then please try acupuncture you will never look back. Cheers Ali. Regards Nikki.

I was recommended to Ali by a work colleague and started my sessions last December after suffering since my teens with acne and irregular periods, which was potentially due to PCOS. I suffered a miscarriage last year and was looking to acupuncture to help regulate my periods so me and my husband could try again for a baby. After only a few sessions I noticed my skin became clearer and within a couple of weeks I found out I was pregnant! I carried on seeing Ali until my 12 week scan to help keep me calm and provide any support with the symptoms of early pregnancy i.e. Nausea and heart burn. I cannot recommend Ali enough to anyone who is new to acupuncture. Not only did she help with the physical symptoms of early pregnancy and helping me stay pregnant but she was also a huge support mentally in making sure I didn’t panic and worry too much. I will defiantly be returning to Ali for further treatment towards the end of my pregnancy. Thank you Ali.

I started visiting Aliya just over a year ago and amazingly almost a year on to the day my baby girl arrived in the world. This was nothing short of a miracle in my eyes having suffered 3 miscarriages in just under 2 years. When I went to see Aliya I was particularly low and desperate but following regular visits, within 3 months I had had my first ‘perfect period’ (apologies if that is too much information!). My body really responded to the acupuncture treatment and within no time at all I felt strong enough to try again. I continued the treatment all through my pregnancy and recently delivered my daughter. I cannot thank Aliya enough for the amazing treatment I have undergone over the last year, without it I feel sure I would not be in the position I am today. I would highly recommend Aliya to anyone who has undergone any fertility issues.
