Report
I am so grateful to Jenny for her help in relieving my 95 year old fathers skin condition. He was suffering badly with a rash and constant itch which affected his daily life and sleep. After lots of different creams and steroid from the GP (which seemed to make matters worse) we decided to try an alternative treatment and goodness, how glad we are that we did! After a few weeks of treatment dads skin is now healed and his sleep pattern is so much better, it really is incredible. Jenny is very knowledgable and a fantastic acupuncturist, she is also a really lovely person, would highly recommend

Dr Zhao is an excellent acupuncturist and has really helped to almost completely allocate chronic pain from a car accident which I have had for 13 years. I am going to continue going to her as the results speak for themselves. I highly recommend her. Her work is just incredible.

Dr. Jenny Zhao is marvellous. I have been treated with acupuncture and herbal medicine by Dr. Zhao for my ankle injuries and insomnia/anxiety. Now I am fully recovered and back to my busy life and study/work. I would highly rate her services and recommend to everyone.

Jenny is fantastic. My partner and I have both visited Jenny independently (for different reasons). I initially visited Jenny and then recommended her to my OH based on my positive experience. Her wealth of knowledge and expertise is clear from the outset and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to others. Thank you from both of us for your invaluable service.
