Reviews for Michelle Estruch Acupuncture Guildford Surrey:

"I first booked in with Michelle when we were struggling to get pregnant, and although skeptical at first, I now truly believe we have our beautiful baby boy because of Michelle and her acupuncture, and I can’t thank her enough. I felt relaxed and in tune with my body again, and Michelle’s expertise continued during the pregnancy as well. I would highly recommend Michelle."

“Hi Michelle, I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help, this week has been the best week I've had, I'm able to eat meals with only very mild manageable symptoms. 😊 I have lots of energy now too so I'm back to work on Monday! “

"I saw Michelle to help with getting pregnant alongside IVF treatment following numerous failed IVF attempts and unexplained infertility. I was skeptical I’ll happily admit, but I can honestly say I think Michelle was the deciding factor to IVF actually finally working and we now have a beautiful miracle baby girl! Michelle made me feel not only very relaxed and less anxious vs other rounds (each treatment made me feel like I had had a two hour massage) but like I had someone to talk to that actually cared and listened to my thoughts/ what I thought was happening, giving me a safe place to cry and rant etc. I wish I had gone there earlier or even before I did my 1st ever ivf treatment ..."

"Michelle is warm and empathic, professional, and an excellent acupuncturist. An injury I sustained years ago, which struggled to heal, has significantly improved under Michelle's care. I would highly recommend her."

"I saw Michelle for a number of sessions in 2020. She was great. I managed to get pregnant soon after, having tried for about three years! Very grateful 😊"

"Hello Michelle
I had to write to say thank you so much for helping me beat the pain of plantar fasciitis in my left foot. After the first treatment you said to wait 48 hours and almost to the minute the pain seemed to ebb away to 50% of what I had been experiencing. Now after three more treatments I am left with only about 20% of the pain, which is bearable and I know that over time this will decrease. Thank you also for recommending stretching exercises which I feel really help reduce the pain and are helping to heal the tendons. I am starting to go back out on my walks again, something I thought I would be months away from. I had no idea acupuncture could be so effective! I shall definitely be back next time I have an ache or pain. 
Many thanks"

"I first saw Michelle for fertility support in 2020. The treatment was instrumental in helping me tune into and relax my body, enabling me to regain my periods and get pregnant. At 39 weeks pregnant I was booked in for a sweep with my midwife to help induce labour and in an effort to try to avoid this I went back to Michelle. Within 15 minutes of the treatment I started having cramping pains in my back and stomach and after a few of these occurring at regular intervals Michelle realised I was in labour and we quickly called my husband. 14 hours later my baby boy was born! Whilst I had upmost confidence in Michelle I really didn't expect it to work so quickly and can't thank her enough for helping me to have a natural and positive birth.
Michelle provides a relaxed and calm environment, making you feel at ease whilst maintaining a professional approach to the treatment and health and safety, something I really appreciated when visiting her whilst pregnant.
I honestly can't recommend her enough!"

“I just wanted to let you know that I am nearly 14 weeks pregnant...!!! And mainly to of course say thank you so much for everything you have done for me. I started seeing you at, what in hindsight, was a period when I was in quite a bad place and your kindness and compassion (and acupuncture!) Really just helped me more than I can say. “
SL, Guildford, Nov 2020

”Hi Michelle
Just wanted to let you now that since I came to see you I've been shoulder/ arm pain free for the first time in two months!!
Thank you !!"

”I started receiving treatment from Michelle after struggling to conceive after a miscarriage. I became pregnant after just a few sessions and since then Michelle has helped me to manage my nausea and to keep stress levels low as my pregnancy has progressed. This has been my first experience of acupuncture and I have found Michelle to be very friendly and professional, putting me at ease from the start. I would highly recommend her services."
PL, Guildford, Aug 2019

”After suffering from severe muscle spasm and tension in my back and neck, Michelle was able to alleviate my pain after just a couple of sessions of acupuncture! I would very much recommend her service, as it works, is great value for money and is carried out in a very calm, peaceful environment"
JS, Guildford, Jun 2019

"I had a couple of acupuncture sessions recently on a cruise. Since being home have spent time with Michelle having general well-being sessions as well a treatment on a specific nerve related foot problem. The foot treatment has cleared up a major issue with my foot and avoided planned surgery - brilliant result. I'd thoroughly recommend acupuncture for both general health and specific conditions 
Finally believe it or not the sessions create a fabulous state of relaxation - a real bonus”
JD, Godalming, Dec 2018

"I have recommended Michelle to so many friends since starting acupuncture with her in March 2017 and will continue to do so as she has had such a positive impact on my life. She really listens when I talk to her about my concerns. My digestion issues have been sorted, my emotions are more stable (!) and my various aches and pains remain a work in progress but always feel better after each session. She knows her stuff (and then some) and I cannot recommend her enough. Whatever your concerns, you’re in safe hands.”
LD, Guildford, Jan 2018

"Michelle comes highly recommended. I had never had acupuncture before and the benefits from treatment have been wonderful. For me she has particularly helped with fertility issues, anxiety and back pain.”
NR, Epsom, Oct 2017

"After suffering from muscles spasms, nerve pain and neck pain for 6 weeks I visited Michelle, as a very nervous first timer to Acupuncture. I have had five treatments and cannot believe the difference. I have virtually no pain and so much more movement. Cannot recommend Michelle enough. She is very professional and knowledgeable and gentle. Very calming lovely lady ”
JW, Cranleigh, Feb 2017

"Michelle is simply amazing and highly recommended! I started seeing Michelle in 2013 for pre-natal acupuncture as I suffer with severe pregnancy sickness. She boosted my energy levels, reduced stress and helped to manage my pregnancy sickness. I continue to see Michelle for relaxation and overall wellbeing. She is highly qualified and professional, but best of all, a lovely, patient and empathetic person.”
PT, Guildford, Jan 2017

"I had ongoing pain in my left hip for a number of months that physiotherapy and intensive exercises was not resolving so I decided to try acupuncture as it had helped me with sinus issues in the past. Michelle was recommended to me via a facebook group so I decided to make an appointment. At the first consultation she took a detailed history of both my physical and emotional health as she believes in treating the person as a whole rather than just the symptoms. This happened to be a very stressful time for me as I was going through an acrimonious separation. Michelle was empathatic but always highly professional. She was very gentle and the treatment never hurt. In fact I regularly fell asleep and left her treatment room very calm and relaxed. She was able to get deeper into the hip and glute muscles to resolve the issue and alliviate the pain completely. I have no hesitation in recommending Michelle and will definitely be going to her again if and when I have any other issues.”

"Michelle has an incredible talent for acupuncture. combining great knowledge and qualifications in the field with an understanding of you as an individual. She has a way of always making you feel comfortable. She has made a huge improvement to the quality of my life over the last year and I've already recommended her to my family and friends. She is really fantastic."
HM, Guildford, Nov 2016

"I decided to try acupuncture in January 2016 after hearing that it can help improve the symptoms of COPD. After some detailed Internet searching I found Michelle and embarked on a course of acupuncture. After the first session I felt a dramatic improvement; my energy levels lifted and my susceptibility to coughs and colds seemed to diminish. I have had regular acupuncture treatments from Michelle ever since. Michelle is highly professional, skilled, and genuine, and takes a deep interest in her subject and her patients. Her assessment is thorough, considered and adaptive, and I feel reassured and at ease in her care. I highly recommend Michelle to anyone considering acupuncture.”
AE, Clandon, Oct 2016

"I have been having acupuncture with Michelle for over 3 years now because I have MS. On my first visit, I was at rock bottom after medication I had taken was unsuccessful. Michelle is brilliant, she has the balance just right. She is so professional and passionate in her work but she is approachable and caring at the same time. The immediate improvements I noticed were great and made me truly believe in this alternative therapy. The long term results I've experienced have been consistently amazing too. With regular sessions, my life is much better because I feel physically and emotionally stronger. Michelle really knows her stuff, I have complete trust and confidence in everything she does which is why I highly recommend her and acupuncture to lots of people!"
NT, Surrey Oct 2016

"I was initially somewhat sceptical about acupuncture but Michelle has transformed my opinion. Her treatments were the crucial factor in helping me recover from chronic fatigue syndrome - the difference after each session was amazing. Now I would turn first to Michelle for advice and treatment on a variety of conditions."
WM, Guildford, Oct 2016

"I have been seeing Michelle for my fibromyalgia for a couple of months. I started seeing her as she was recommended to me. I made my appointment without much hope of success as I'd already resigned myself to being in constant pain having tried many different treatments. I am shocked at the difference that Michelle has made to me. Now I only get limited pain at times and feel better than I had ever thought possible. It is a huge relief to know that when I wake up in the morning I will be able to stand up without my legs collapsing underneath me in pain. Due to Michelle's background in medical research she is so knowledgable. She is more than happy to explain everything in as much detail as you want. I always come away fascinated with the information I have received. Michelle has made a huge difference to my ability to enjoy my life without worry that I won't be able to physically cope with plans. I cannot thank Michelle enough or recommend her highly enough."
DM, Surrey, September 2016

"I initially visited Michelle as I was undergoing IVF treatment and acupuncture is a great complementary therapy to this. I was struggling emotionally and I found that acupuncture wasn't just beneficial for my physical well being, but also for my emotional well being. The treatments really helped to keep me centred and calm throughout. Michelle is a gentle and caring practitioner which is just what I needed, and I can't recommend her services enough."
SL, Guildford, August 2016

"I have known Michelle a little over a year now when I needed help with some suspected arthritis in my hands which she has successfully helped. I had also recently suffered a bereavement and was feeling pretty low when Michelle amazingly managed to incorporate my negative feelings at the time into a more holistic treatment; so I benefitted both on a physical and a mental level. Michelle is a meticulously competent professional with a warm, caring and genuine approach and I would thoroughly recommend getting in touch for a quick chat if you're thinking of having acupuncture in the near future."
JR, Guildford, 2016

"I have been having acupuncture treatments for my skin with Michelle for over a year and a half now. When I first started having the treatments, my skin was horrendous and I used to feel really self-conscious. Since then, my hormones have calmed down, my skin heals a lot quicker and my acne scars are gradually disappearing. Through Michelle telling me which foods can aggrevate acne - it lead me to get an allergy test and I found out I was allergic to dairy which had a big part to play with why my skin got so bad. I still get occasional outbreaks but they have definitely reduced and are nowhere near like they used to be. It's also very relaxing!"
EM, Surrey, 2015

"Michelle is extremely professional and puts you completely at ease right from the start. I always feel listened to and each treatment is taylored to exactly what I need. She is also very empathetic and takes a holistic look at how things are alongside my immediate concerns."
AM, Guildford, 2015

"On a recent Christmas Eve, my teenage daughter complained of severe earache. With all the shops and the surgery closed for several days I didn't know what to do apart from give her pain killers through the holiday period, so I decided to call Michelle Estruch to ask her for some advice. She kindly offered to treat my daughter at her consulting rooms that evening. Using acupuncture needles she miraculously cured the pain and we were able to continue with our festivities without the need for pain killers or emergency doctors. Michelle is quite remarkable!"
