I came to see Ilana for help with peri menopause symptoms - mainly night sweats. Ilana is thorough in her questioning of your past medical history to get an understanding of your health.I've had 5 treatments and the hot flushes have pretty much stopped.As a side note I mentioned to her how much I was suffering with itchy eyes due to hayfever and the very high grass pollen. Ilana treated that too and it's been nothing short of extraordinary. No more itchy eyes!She is calm and friendly and puts you at ease. Highly recommended.

I’ve been seeing Ilana for acupuncture, and the results have been truly life-changing. She has helped me regulate my hormones, and the improvements in my cycle have been remarkable—PMS symptoms that once disrupted my life are now virtually gone, and my periods have become so much more manageable.Her approach is gentle, intuitive, and incredibly knowledgeable. I always feel heard and cared for during our sessions. I’m so grateful for the support she’s provided and feel confident and optimistic as I continue working with her on my fertility journey.Highly recommend to anyone looking for holistic, effective support with hormonal balance or reproductive health.

I visited Ilana over a period of about 6 months in preparation for and during fertility treatment. The sessions helped to prepare my body and also relieved symptoms of anxiety. I found it very relaxing and beneficial for my overall health & well-being. Aside from acupuncture, Ilana was also very supportive throughout the fertility process and offers guidance on lifestyle & diet to support hormone balance.

Ilana massively helped me with hot flushes due to menopause. After just one session the flushes reduced by half and by the second session I only had a couple a day and could sleep so much better. Ilana is a miracle worker .

I went to see Ilana with severe anxiety and disrupted hormones and even after the first appointment I felt a huge shift. A calm comfortable space too which was really important to me. I now see Ilana regularly to support my body and my hormones feel completely different now.

I can’t recommend Ilana highly enough! After just a few sessions, I’ve noticed a massive improvement in my overall health and energy levels. My skin is no longer dry, my hair has stopped falling out, and my shoulder pain which had been bothering me for a long time has eased significantly. Ilana is incredibly knowledgeable, caring, and truly gifted at what she does. Her clinic is also beautiful, calm, and relaxing such a peaceful space that instantly makes you feel at ease.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Ilana over multiple sessions. Her treatment made a noticeable difference in relieving my tense glutes and supporting my overall recovery, whilst training for Hyrox. Professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, she took the time to understand my needs and tailored the treatment accordingly. I left the sessions feeling looser, and well looked after. Shes highly recommended!

I went to Ilana before starting my second round of IVF. Sadly our first round was unsuccessful. Ilana really helped, made me feel relaxed, and talked me through how to improve our health ready for IVF. I’m very grateful to Ilana for helping me and, I believe she truly contributed to the success of our second round of IVF. We now have a beautiful baby girl. Thank you Ilana!

Acupuncture by Ilana is a very professional, well run clinic in Bricket Wood. I highly recommend Ilana, who has treated me for hay fever both last year and this year with great success.It is quite unusual to find out that Acupuncture is such a successful cure for so many ailments, and not having to take tablets or wear an acupressure band has been wonderful.Ilana added in some other extra things within the treatment so it was an all over health boost!Thank you Ilana, see you at the beginning of the next hayfever season, if not before :-)

I have seen Ilana on a weekly basis over 6 months to support me with fertility. She is empathetic and has vast knowledge. I found sessions relaxing and helpful and she offered me additional contacts to support us in our journey. I can proudly say I’m now a mum to our first baby boy and I couldn’t be more greatful. Thanks Ilana 😊

Ilana has a wonderful garden clinic room. Attended 4 sessions which really helped with my whiplash and anxiety. Loved the heated bed, the scented candles.Had some gua sha too which helped ease the tension in my shoulders and back. Also had ear seeds to help my anxiety. Highly recommend Ilana if you looking to heal through acupuncture.

I suffer with chronic lower back pain and have recently been struggling with sciatica. I did not want to keep taking tablets for pain relief as I get constipated, so decided on acupuncture.I’ve been seeing Ilana for the last 4-5 weeks and the results have been positive I finally have a smile on my face again 😊If you struggle with chronic pain and the pain is making you feel low, I would definitely recommend giving acupuncture a go. Ilana is softly spoken and gentle and has a very calming voice.Barbara TC

I can’t recommend Ilana enough! I started seeing her with the goal of improving my fertility, but the benefits have far exceeded my expectations. Not only has my menstrual cycle greatly improved, but many symptoms I had lived with for years, thinking they were just part of life, have been alleviated. Ilana is such a lovely person, and the treatment sessions were always a pleasure. I’m really looking forward to continuing my treatment and seeing even more positive results. If you're considering acupuncture, I highly recommend her!

I took my 10 year old to see Ilana after he had been complaining about his back for weeks, following a trip to a theme park. Within days of seeing Ilana, he said it hurt less until eventually, he stopped mentioning it at all. I'm so glad I went down this route and saw the lovely Ilana rather than getting him painkillers which may not have gotten to the root of the problem. Very grateful and wouldn't have any hesitation recommending Ilana.

I’ve been seeing Ilana for about 3 months now to treat PMDD and I’m seeing amazing progress so far! I’ve seen a huge reduction in symptoms and am feeling much more balanced and more myself than I have done in a long time. PMDD was something I suffered with for years and it was very resistant to lots of other treatments I tried so to start seeing improvements so quickly was amazing. The appointments have been really helpful for my anxiety as well which was a bonus I wasn’t expecting, I feel really calm after my weekly appointment and my racing thoughts slow down. Ilana is really thorough and creates a safe environment where you feel comfortable talking about your health issues, it’s really nice to feel listened to especially after bad experiences with GPs who don’t take women’s reproductive health seriously enough. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

I went to Ilana with so many menopausal problems, I was at my wits end, and totally fed up. She made notes of all my symptoms, aches and pains etc, she's very understanding and makes you feel completely at ease. Needles are placed in appropriate areas, and though you may feel like a porcupine, with soothing music in the background, and soft lighting, the experience is very relaxing! I've had a few treatments now, and I'm finding the acupuncture really beneficial. Wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend Ilana.
