Clients' Testimonials

Here are some testimonials of my clients, printed with their permission:

"Acupuncture with Marilia is a deeply relaxing experience. She takes great care to find the right treatment and is very gentle with the needles. It can help with many ailments and conditions." Lucy Forsyth, Yoga Teacher

"Acupuncture helped me considerably with severe back ache. It is a holistic treatment which releases deeply held emotions and allows your body to relax. It brings imaginative insights and allows you to understand yourself better." Jane

"Acupuncture and massage combined with the skillful hands of Marilia has helped me through a difficult and traumatic operation, with the pain and anxiety before and with my recovery after. Marilia is a very caring and understanding lady and I still continue to value her treatment and advice for my well-being. My heartfelt thanks." Mary Roddis

"An Acupuncture session with Marilia is a very relaxing and uplifting experience. My fear of needles was dealt with carefully and conscientiously. The results and feelings of well being overshadow any slight discomfort felt." Sharon Bowen

"Marilia's professionalism and genuine care for her clients in a calm and trusting environment has helped me through an extremely stressful period of life. From the loss of my father from cancer, whom Marilia treated for pain as he had encountered many unpleasant side effects with traditional pain killers. To the birth of my little boy, Marilia treated me throughout my IVF treatment and I truly believe that without her help my son would not be here. Prior to seeing Marilia I had tried acupuncture with skepticism and disappointment but my view changed once I met Marilia and I now continue to attend sessions for my general well being." HCJ

"Having had to cope with chronic back pain and neck pain for many years, the last flare up found me looking for some relief with Acupuncture as I have had a good response from this type of treatment before, but is always very expensive. I decided to take advantage of the affordable Tuesdays available on offer at Energia Vital, although it is a communal service Marilia takes great care to keep it as private and personal as she can. Her kindness and professional approach s very rewarding and has also been a great support after my recent surgery to my neck, The communal area is a very warm and comforting area for you to relax while receiving your treatment." DB

"I first went to Marilia for help after I had experienced 2 miscarriages. On our first consultation she listened carefully to my experiences and offered to help me. She helped me to get my cycle back on track and to conceive again, which I did! I found out I was pregnant again 3 weeks after my first acupuncture appointment, after trying for months prior to that. From then on I attended weekly acupuncture appointments for 14 weeks to keep the pregnancy strong and balanced, then continued to attend once a month till the end of my pregnancy. I delivered my healthy baby boy in December 2011 and I truly believe Marilia and her skills helped me conceive and keep the pregnancy going strong. For that me and my husband are both truly grateful to her for helping us achieve what we were so longing for. I will be back for when we decide to have baby number 2 ;-)" MS
