Since I started acupuncture with Caroline I have improved 100%. I now am pain free most days and no longer need to take a variety of medicines to get me through the day.

I cannot recommend the clinic highly enough. Kate has treated me for a number of different issues and is so professional and thorough in her work. She always takes the time to listen and approaches each treatment in a very holistic way, drawing on her wide-ranging knowledge and experience……

I went to see Caroline at the Calverley & Rawdon Acupuncture Clinic after I developed Bell’s Facial Palsy following a particularly bad virus and chest infection. I had looked up the treatments for Bell’s Palsy on the internet myself although no medical person had advised or recommended me to do this. In my opinion the acupuncture definitely helped me to a speedy recovery – within a couple of sessions my face started to return to normal and after 7 sessions I decided it had returned almost completely, so much so that the consultant I was seeing commented that she had never seen anyone recover so quickly!

I met Caroline whilst struggling to build my practice as a new acupuncturist. Finding Caroline at that point in my journey was exactly what I needed. Regular supervision with her has given me the guidance and confidence necessary to not only succeed but thrive. Learning with Caroline has been an honor and a privilege. Her support to help run a successful practice, and her clinical wisdom on how to work with clients effectively and efficiently, are invaluable for any practitioner. Caroline has always held a generous, safe space where I have felt welcomed and supported. It would be difficult for me to overstate the impact that regular supervision has had on me and how it has supported in me growing as a practitioner.

Thank you so much Caroline.

I just wanted to say… Thank you for everything that you have done for me over the years. Rachael’s support has been invaluable.

KH

Thank you so much for your help and treatment for my husband and I. Our miracle baby turned up in October and it’s been fun fun fun ever since!

Thanks again – I would happily recommend your practice to anyone undergoing IVF treatment.

I was very anxious knowing that my baby was in the breech position at 35 weeks. I wanted to do everything I could to avoid a caesarean. I myself am a midwife so knew what my hospital could offer, which was an ECV after 36 weeks. I knew from research I had come across in my profession that moxibustion had a similar success rate to ECV but carried less risks to myself and my baby. So I googled local places to have the treatment and came across Calverley and Rawdon Acupuncture clinic. Caroline was fantastic on the phone gave me lots of information when booking my appointment. When I arrived the clinic room was wonderfully calm and peaceful so I immediately felt relaxed. Caroline went through a thorough consultation and explained the treatment in detail. The treatment itself was very relaxing and my baby seemed to enjoy it wriggling away like crazy. She gave me an information leaflet on how to continue the treatment myself at home and much to my amazement the baby turned to head down 3 days later. I was over the moon, and am now 39+4 weeks waiting patiently for my baby to arrive naturally. Caroline also informed me of an acupuncture treatment that aims to induce labour, which if I go overdue, I plan to book and have every confidence it will help me meet my baby that little bit sooner.

I had a wonderful appointment with Kate last night and it was really relaxing. I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a lovely lady and lovely addition to your team!

LB

I wanted to thank you both for all the help and support you’ve given me since I first contacted you in July last year. It has been a long and difficult three years to get to this point but I absolutely believe acupuncture has made all the difference to this pregnancy being successful and I will always be truly grateful to you both for your part in that. You have both always shown genuine care towards me and my situation, which I have often lacked from the medical staff who I’ve been under the care of. Thank you. I will certainly recommend you to anyone else wishing to improve their chances of having a baby.

The acupuncture for fertility regulated my periods so fast and all the added information Caroline gave me about conception helped me conceive very quickly.

JP

I had read about the benefits of acupuncture alongside IVF and made an appointment to see Caroline. I am now 13 weeks pregnant and believe that the acupuncture sessions alongside the IVF helped me to get pregnant. I found acupuncture very relaxing and think it is a very useful complement to IVF treatment

I’ve been using acupuncture to support me with anxiety linked to PMS that has morphed into the perimenopause. It not only calms me down (more than anything else I’ve tried) but the accompanying advice from Caroline and Rachel has been invaluable.

VW

He’s here! He’s absolutely perfect and doing really well. We wanted to thank you so much for your amazing care and support throughout our treatment. We know it helped us emotionally and sure it helped our treatment be such a success. We’ll never forget your help – thank you!

CA

I just wanted to let you know that I thought baby had turned earlier in week and I’ve just had it confirmed by the midwife! Very pleased! I’m singing yours and acupuncture’s praises!

“Caroline has a special way of honing in on what really matters in supervision. She creates a warm atmosphere, and combined with her wisdom and clarity, she helps to open achievable possibilities”

SA, London

I suffer from a recurring neck/shoulder problem and have received acupuncture treatment from Caroline, periodically, over the last 3 years. Whilst initially sceptical and having tried other treatments to alleviate the pain, I can say without doubt that acupuncture works. Caroline Haigh is very professional and the atmosphere is very relaxed and welcoming.

KG

Thank you so much for all your kind support and encouragement during our treatments. I am sure that without you our daughter wouldn’t be here today.

After unsuccessfully trying for a baby and having several tests I was told by an eminent expert in fertility that my sperm had problems with mobility and function and that my wife and I would need to have IVF and ICSI to conceive a child. I was told that I was probably born this way and it could be genetic, having had no other children we agreed to be put on the waiting list for IVF. Both my wife and I had many acupuncture sessions over the course of several months with Caroline at her clinic in the run up to our IVF treatment. The day of the egg collection I was ushered away my an embryologist and told that since the last time I was tested my sperm had recovered to become much higher quality, as good as ‘normal’ in fact and that we would no longer require ICSI. We subsequently fertilised 12 eggs using normal IVF and managed to have a blastocyst implanted, as a bonus we had two embryos’s frozen. We are currently waiting to find out if my wife is pregnant but I but would like to thank Caroline for my treatment and potentially curing my ‘problem’.

AS

I first went to see Caroline to try acupuncture for unexplained infertility. I had read some articles on how acupuncture can help with infertility and wanted to try all I could to help me get pregnant naturally and then to support me through an IVF cycle if my fertility journey came to that. Over the years I ended up having 2 ICSI cycles plus 2 frozen embryo transfers. I then had a natural pregnancy whilst on some immunotherapy treatment. Caroline & Rachael were fantastic throughout my journey. There are 3 things that I loved about this clinic:. Caroline & Rachael explained why different acupuncture points were used at different stages of my monthly cycle, through IVF and through pregnancy. I noticed a difference in my periods as soon as I started acupuncture (less blood clots) from the very beginning of my acupuncture treatment so I knew it was working and doing something!. I found the acupuncture treatment very relaxing, which is an added bonus when dealing with the stress of unexplained infertility. And most importantly, Caroline and Rachael gave me fantastic emotional support and helped me ask the right questions of my fertility clinics. They are a wonderful, caring and professional team. After many years of fertility treatment, I am pleased that I now have a little miracle that has joined our family. I will miss my regular sessions with Caroline and Rachael. No doubt I will pop back for the odd relaxation treatment instead!

I have been going to Caroline for seven years and would never go to anyone else for acupuncture. She is a professional and brilliant at what she does and has helped me through all of my fertility treatment. If anyone is going through the same, acupuncture with Caroline and her team is an essential part of your treatment which will help you with relieving anxiety, pain and also help to support the treatment you are having. Caroline has a wealth of knowledge especially when it comes to having acupuncture alongside fertility treatment and pregnancy. I would never do any treatment without accompanying acupuncture from Caroline! I thank them all from the bottom of my heart for their support throughout the years.

Caroline and her team are AMAZING!! I cannot recommend them enough. I have been attending the clinic for 18 months and every session I have had I have left feeling relaxed and listened to.
I found the clinic, after suffering from recurrent miscarriage and when I was feeling a bit lost and confused about it all. When I met Caroline, she did a detailed assessment of me and my past history. I then started attending weekly sessions. My fertility journey was not straight forward and each week Caroline would listen to my updates and offer advice and guidance. Her knowledge of fertility is brilliant which helped me greatly. She even put me in touch with a fantastic Dr who specialised in the area of fertility I needed investigated. This ended up being a huge turning point in my journey.

After a year of attending the clinic, I found out I was pregnant. Caroline helped me navigate through early pregnancy and all the anxiety and emotions that go with it after loss. It helped me attending the clinic and I would leave feeling relaxed. I think these sessions helped me to keep the baby and also helped keep me sane. Caroline celebrated every milestone with me and I know she was genuinely happy for me and my family.

I have also attended some appointments with other members of the Calverley and Rawdon Acupuncture team over the last few months and all of the women were extremely knowledgeable, compassionate and supportive.

I cannot thank the clinic enough and I will always been grateful for the support and guidance they provided me. I would highly recommend them to anyone going through a similar experience.

I can not recommend Caroline and Rachael highly enough. I had already suffered four miscarriages when I first contacted the clinic and was really struggling to imagine how I would ever manage to carry another baby to term. Caroline did a thorough assessment and was confident she could help; I was bowled over by her knowledge and expertise in fertility.

Over the next nine months I visited the clinic regularly for treatments which I am sure were instrumental in me keeping this baby. I had a very anxious pregnancy due to my previous losses, and further complications in this pregnancy, and acupuncture helped me to relax and gain a sense of calm and perspective each week.

As my baby was breech, then oblique, up until 36 weeks, I opted for the moxa treatment in clinic, which was successful. I also had the induction treatment on my due date and, sure enough, I went into labour the next morning, giving birth to a healthy baby boy at home. Success all round!

Both Caroline and Rachael were incredibly kind, compassionate and supportive. They really cared, and it meant so much to feel like I had someone else fighting my corner when I felt let down by the consultants.

I will be forever grateful to them both for helping me to finally complete my family.

I have been going for accupuncture now for over a year and can honestly say I love it. Caroline and Rachel are like my therapists and are so lovely to talk to and always listen to how I'm feeling and work with that. I highly recommend and have told so many people about it!
