Testimonials Lynda has helped me get my health back. Prior to seeing her I was constantly fatigued and exhausted occasionally having to spend the whole weekend in bed in order to have enough recuperate for the following week. I have had typhoid, glandular fever in my teens and an emotional two years which had left me feeling completely drained. After committing to acupuncture and a detox I am energised and emotionally stable. I can not remember the last time I have felt this way. Lynda has been spot on with my diagnosis, she has been very supportive in helping me complete a 9 week detox. This has lead to a lifestyle change for me which has left me feeling wholesome and restored. I could not speak highly enough of Lynda and her work. Lidya – Auckland Dec 2010 I initially went to see Lynda on a recommendation from a friend to assist with fertility. However during our first consultation I realised Lynda was an expert in many areas of woman’s health and would be able to assist with multiple other health complaints I had started to experience such as, heavy painful periods, migraine and bowel difficulties. Lynda was very caring and empathic and quickly had a treatment plan ready for me combining acupuncture and naturopathy and Chinese medicine. I saw Lynda weekly and after the first session noticed a complete absence of migraines and completely regular bowels for the first time in 20 years! I continued to see Lynda weekly and did not have a reoccurrence of migraines after experiencing severe migraines frequently for much of my life. I wished I had discovered Acupuncture sooner. I also very quickly reached my goal of conception which was a fantastic result. I would not hesitate to recommend Lynda to any woman experiencing health difficulties. I will also be straight back to Lynda should my migraines or any other symptoms start to reoccur. Jen S of Auckland 2010 Due to family history of High Cholesterol and cholesterol related issues my GP was keen to see me be put onto a lifetime of prescribed medication due to the steady increase of my cholesterol levels. This news really shocked and frightened me, I was not at all comfortable with the thought of being on this sort of medication and the side effects. I immediately got on the phone to Lynda who calmed me down instantly and assured me with the right diet and supplements we could get my Cholesterol level down to an acceptable level that my GP would be happy with. Well I took the challenge on (this was over Christmas too) and my next blood test 4-5 months later was dramatic. I was thrilled and Lynda was too. THANK you Lynda for your continued encouragement I am so grateful. Your knowledge, and gentle manner has always made me feel comfortable to discuss any issue. Thanks Lynda … WJ Auckland I began seeing Lynda after receiving what I felt was inadequate explanations of my symptoms from the medical field. I had ceased the contraceptive pill 6 months prior and was hoping to conceive. Due to the length of time of taking the OCP and my age my body did not respond well. I started to loose handfuls of hair, my cycle was irregular and I had many PMS symptoms. Lynda began a programme of acupuncture, vitamins and herbal preparations. Within 6 weeks my hair stopped falling and began to look healthier, my cycle was on track at 28 days and I felt like myself again. My sense of well-being is restored and my self esteem has returned. I would recommend Lynda without hesitation as someone who is knowledgeable and takes the time to explain things in a way that anyone can understand as well as having a naturally calm and gentle nature which immediately puts you at ease… Hayley, age 38 Auckland I have been a patient of Lynda”s for over ten years. I suffered from heavy and painful periods when I first went to Lynda Acupuncture and natural supplements really made a big improvement to this. She has helped me thru menopause and now post menopause . My hot flushes have stopped and my anxiety has gone. I am on one natural supplement a day. Lynda is a very caring and lovely person, her knowledge is amazing. Christine C, Auckland I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and subsequently had a bilateral mastectomy. My recovery from surgery was slow and I also suffered adverse effects from the anti-cancer medication prescribed. I had known Lynda for approximately 15 yrs at that time and had no hesitation in consulting her to assist with my recovery. Through accupuncture and naturopathic treatment, Lynda has greatly improved my energy levels & sense of well being. She has a great amount of knowledge and tremendous understanding of my condition and has helped me immensely on the road to recovery… Kind regards Judy, Auckland My two children both started getting really bad migraines when they were about 13 years old. There is a strong family history of life long migraines and I was determined to alter this pattern. A friend told me that she had had success going to Lynda for acupuncture and I took my two children along. She was very good with them and in the last 10 years they have had only a couple of migraines each, compared to nearly one a month before. I have also benefited from Lyndas help. I was diagnosed with cancer and needed surgery to remove a large tumour. Lynda helped to prepare my body for surgery, which went extremely well and then assisted with my recovery. She has treated me for symptoms brought on by instant menopause, reducing hot flushes considerably. My previously high blood pressure is now normal and I no longer need medication for it. I would recommend everyone to give acupuncture and supplements a try, they have been of marvellous help to my family and Lynda is a skilled practioner of both… Sharon P. Auckland I made an appointment to see Lynda after I had been diagnosed with Shingles. The Shingles rash appeared on my face and neck and I was lacking in energy. Lynda recommended a course of Chinese Herbal Medication and a series of Acupuncture treatments. Within a few weeks the eruptions had fully presented themselves and showed signs of healing. My energy levels returned to normal. I did not experience severe pain or after effects from the Shingles and scarring has been minimal. Lynda recommended suitable skincare products that could be used externally to help reduce scarring and dryness. I believe that the treatment I received from Lynda helped me to recover at a far quicker rate than if I had not had the treatment. I now visit Lynda on a monthly basis for my Acupuncture maintenance. Lynda has an amazing wealth of knowledge that she shares willingly. She is naturally empathetic and lives her life in accordance with her Naturopathic Philosophy. Thanks Lynda… Bev B. Auckland August 2008 Lynda has been my solution to medications and discomfort for years. My consultations with Lynda began a few years’ ago when my doctor recommended I stopped taking the contraceptive pill, which had been regulating my hormonal levels and controlling associated severe hormonal headaches. After many years of being symptom free I was reluctant to ‘let go’ of the pill as I knew the symptoms would return. It was suggested that the symptoms would be managed by other medications. Due to my hesitancy to take other medications, I sought a holistic natural approach. I began regular acupuncture sessions with Lynda who also provided dietary and supplement advice. I experienced none of the symptoms I was dreading! Over the years, my transition into menopause has been smooth. Lynda has managed my pre-menopausal, peri-menopausal, and currently post-menopausal status and symptoms. I am grateful I can seek Lynda’s advice and intervention on all my health issues. I am confident her practice is research led and follows best practice guidelines… Yvonne C. Auckland
