I had been experiencing back pain but it seemed relaxing massages doesn't relieve it. I searched…read morefor other alternatives and came across Centenary Natural Therapies which I found interesting as I've never tried any natural remedies. The staff are so welcoming and friendly and if you ask them, they'd be happy to explain the natural therapies they offer and discuss what could suit your problem. I told them I had back pain but I've tried massages so I needed something different. Peter, the owner, has been practicing for years and has a lot of experience and even awards with reputable Tradition Chinese Medicine institutions. He suggested I try Acupuncture with Nina. Prior to this I had never tried acupuncture because I had been quite sceptical in the past, but after my first two sessions with Nina I felt a dramatic shift in pressure in my back- it was going away. I was so pleased with their service and glad I tried this place out. I've chatted to some of the older clients in the waiting room, who have mentioned they have been going there for a while and keep coming back because they feel great and they want to continue feeling great. Natural therapies is a great alternative to treating any health problems, it's safe and relies purely on natural remedies as opposed to medication. So if you needed a break from medication, I suggest you try this place out.

I have a number of chronic pain areas and at times have despaired of ever feeling better. I have enjoyed very effective massages by Jade and Lisa, who both really know what they are doing. I have had lots of massage by lots of different people and clinics over the years so I knew when I had come across a very high quality massage business. I recommend them to everyone I know and buy their gift cards to treat my family for birthdays.

I've been seeing the witch doctor (Greg Beerling, acupuncturist) as needed for five years. I love…read morehis honest & giving nature as well as his sheer joy in the work he does. His positivity in finding a remedy is infectious & just what a patient needs when not feeling 100%. Greg is a solution-orientated practitioner. I have found he is always looking to treat the root issue & get a resolution rather than just treating the symptoms. He also stays abreast of new modalities in TCM & incorporates as appropriate. NRCHI offers easy to use online booking for appointments on their website. As convenient as this is, I have not generally found it easy to book on a last-minute type basis. I generally need to think & plan ahead. Note: there is a cancellation fee if you cancel your appointment on the day within four hours of your scheduled time. They are pretty upfront about this policy as they do not wish to offend anyone.

I get chronic headaches and find that Rachel really improves the prevention and treatment of these. However, what makes my treatments with Rachel so rewarding is her lovely nature - you can tell she cares deeply about relaxing you and making a positive difference to your overall health. Rachel's friendly disposition puts you at ease and makes you feel valued - these are all qualities that make Rachel the ideal massage therapist!

If you are a believer of alternative therapy, believe me, Jiang is a miracle worker. With…read moreacupuncture and Chinese herbs as her specialty, she relieved me of my consistent sinus problems years ago. Now at 31 weeks of my pregnancy, I started seeing her again last month due to dizziness and general fatigue. The acupuncture is brilliant and whilst the chinese herbs are optional, Jiang customises the herbs according to your ailment. I have heard from friends who have gone to Jiang in the hope of conceiving. Whilst I have no first hand experience in this, I have had friends who swear by it. Keep an open mind and give her a shot. It's worth the while!

Andrew is the Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Doctor with the clinic and is the person I come to see here. I have been seeing Andrew for about 2 years and he is wonderful. He has helped me so much with headaches, migraines and digestion issues. He does not 'hard sell' but will recommend a program for you with acupuncture, massage and herb treatments. It has only been a week since I have seen him but have had no headaches and my digestion is much improved. Andrew is also a fertility specialist helping people if are having trouble conceiving. He has told me that he has a really high success rate. The prices are a little higher than what I have paid for in the past but I have no issue with that if the person treating me is good and can cure - or at least help me - with issues. I absolutely highly recommend Andrew and his services. His services are in high demand and an appointment is necessary. It looses one star as I do not think the receptionists are on their game. I have been there on occasions where they have forgotten to charge me for things or charged me incorrectly and have had to ring me to pay over the phone.

Sarah is warm, caring and considerate - everything you want in a practitioner helping you and guiding you to wellness. Although she is only in the clinic on set days each week (Thursday and Friday from memory), making an appointment was easy and I found it best to pre-book at the end of each appointment. Her insight into Chinese medicine was fascinating and I walked away from each appointment having learned something new. I would whole heartedly suggest an appointment with Sarah if you're considering acupuncture and want to feel like more than just a "patient." I also believe she does massage.

Before visiting Ondol I'd been seeing a sports-focused remedial massage therapist. While I knew it…read morewould never be that kind of soft-handed day spa style massage, I also was never quite prepared for the so-much-pain-I'm-verging-on-tears style massage. Thankfully, Ondol's style is a happy medium that combines gentle massage movements with more deep reaching muscular techniques that have me walking out like I'm walking on air as a new woman. With regular treatments, Sue has taken my lower-back pain and general muscular issues from a 10 on the pain meter to a dulcet 3 or 4. Also, I quite admire their focus on it being an ongoing process to health rather than a one-time fix-it-all treatment.

I started attending Ondol clinic for fertility almost 2 years ago. I had never been to acupuncture…read morebefore and it was my last port of call as my husband was refusing to have medical intervention such as IVF. I have never really believed in acupuncture, but my visits to Ondol have changed all that. My first point of contact was the receptionist, Helen, who was incredibly lovely when I queried if it was alright to bring a mobile 9 month-old to the sessions. Without hesitation she said, 'bring her in, we all LOVE babies'. When I arrived for my first appointment, Helen was not there, but two of the principal practitioners both took my daughter and looked after her, while I had my acupuncture session. When I said to them after the session, 'I hope she did not stop you from doing your work', they responded with big smiles and said 'it's all part of the service'. My daughter and I have always felt so incredibly welcome there. The atmosphere is one of family and one of everyone banding together, using their collective knowledge to assist you in getting better. Following each fertility treatment I felt incredibly relaxed. It was as if I had just had the most wonderful massage. After weekly fertility treatments including acupuncture, Chinese herbs and moxibustion, for just over three months, I fell pregnant. During my fertility treatment on one occasion I arrived and had crippling back pain. Two of the practitioners worked on me at the same time and I walked out 80% better than when I had crawled in. I was so surprised as physiotherapy had had little effect. After another visit where I had shooting pain through my leg and neck when accelerating the car or turning my head, I walked out able to both accelerate the car and turn my head with full mobility. The range of ailments that acupuncture can assist with is amazing and even a couple of well-placed needles resulted in me breathing freely during a persistent cold. I am absolutely converted and am so fortunate to have found such a wonderful practitioner in Dr Hae-Uk and her staff and colleagues. I would recommend this clinic to everyone.

I've had successful treatments for neck and shoulder problems, a damaged knee and sore back at different times and feel so comforted to know that this talented group of practitioners are always there to help.

I've noted too that if I ever need physio, Nurture Studio is the only physio studio in New Farm and Teneriffe with Bupa Plus status. I highly recommend the skill sets and great service to be found at Nurture Studio.
