I can’t recommend Maria enough.
I found her when looking for an acupuncturist to help me with symptoms of thoracic outlet syndrome. More “traditional” medical treatment for the condition - ie painkillers, physiotherapy etc - was doing nothing to help my symptoms and in fact, the symptoms were getting worse. I decided to look for holistic treatments that might actually make me feel better rather than treatments that ought to make me feel better, if you know what I mean.
Maria has helped me so much. The combination of incredibly skilful acupuncture, guasha and cupping has worked so well for me. Maria is very gentle and reassuring with the needles, even in areas like the hands which could in less skilful hands be very painful.
I’ve been especially blown away by the impact of the guasha - if you’ve not had it before in a clinical setting, it’s effectively scrubbing the tight muscles with a flat instrument. It brings blood to the area and helps with healing and dispersing inflammation. If this sounds woolly - I promise it’s not! My neck, shoulder and upper back muscles feel completely different now.
Maria’s treatment room is cool, relaxing and discreet.
Maria herself is kind, professional and gentle - and works collaboratively with you to find exactly the right treatment for each session. You know you’re in very safe hands.
If you struggle with migraines, I strongly encourage you to try acupuncture with Maria.
For months, I had suffered from classic migraines – sometimes several in a single week – but had not found any relief through my GP. Then in February, I started acupuncture treatment with Maria. Since that first session, I have not experienced a single migraine.
I now see Maria twice a month and cannot thank her enough for her care. She is professional, friendly, gentle, and really takes the time to understand, in every session, how I’m feeling. She understands how everything is connected, from our physical health to our mental health, and it means a lot that she’s so committed to the wellbeing of her clients.
I was new to acupuncture when I spoke to Maria for the first time. I was 37 weeks pregnant with Obstetric Cholestasis, and due to be induced at 38 weeks. I was hoping acupuncture would help me avoid a chemical induction.
In a single session, Maria managed to not only help me relief the symptoms of Obstetric Cholestasis but also kickstarted gently the induction as when I went for my induction appointment I was already 2 cm dilated and didn’t need any chemical intervention to progress further in my labor.
I already booked another appointment to help my breastfeeding journey and balance my hormones.
Beside the positive outcome of my session with Maria, I really appreciate the fact she did explain and detail each steps, her gentle approach and that she took the time to listen to me and my concerns.
Highly recommended!
I have had the pleasure of working with Maria Rossi as my therapist, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and expertise she provided. When I first came to Maria with my back issues, I was impressed by how she took the time to thoroughly understand the root of my pain rather than rushing to apply a quick fix.
Instead of immediately targeting the area that hurt with acupuncture, she focused on assessing my overall condition and developed a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to my specific needs. Her thoughtful and holistic approach made a significant difference in my recovery, addressing not just the symptoms but the underlying causes as well.
Maria’s dedication and genuine care for her patients are truly remarkable. Unfortunately, due to an upcoming relocation, I will no longer be able to continue my healing journey with her, which saddens me deeply. I will miss her professionalism, her warm and empathetic nature, and, most of all, the tremendous progress we’ve made together.
I wholeheartedly recommend Maria Rossi to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and compassionate therapist. She has been instrumental in my recovery, and I am confident she will do the same for others.
Maria is very patient, careful and clear about how acupuncture works. It works indeed! Few sessions was enough to relief my lower back pain. Now, I have my normal life back, so happy. Highly recommended.
