Generally acute injuries are faster to treat than any chronic injuires. This can range from 1 to 2 sessions completely healing you, to needing 20 - 30 sessions over a few months. Acupuncture is very effective at treating different kinds of pain related disorders for the same reasons stated above. Football, Rugby, Martial Arts - We treat a wide range of ailments common in the sports world.
Whilst this ranges from person to person, it is recommended that one allows a few months prior to trying to conceive to prepare the body and maximise chances of conception. For women, 3 menstrual cycles would allow a good amount of time to see some positive changes. Many studies have confirmed that acupuncture can significantly improve IVF success rates when used in conjunction with the IVF cycle.
When it comes to nutrition, one size doesnt fit all. There are principles to follow however important adjusments need to be made to fit your overall health. Our main goal is to optimise your digestive health which will eliminate one of the reasons people become overweight in the first place. Improving your digestive system will help with many mental/emotional conditions such as depression and anxiety.

I attended acupuncture sessions for a series of months and every time was amazing. A really professional and sincere practitioner who offers an excellent standard of service and will advise on a range of options. Ishrat is incredible easy to talk to openly, and the quality of both the acupuncture and massages I received was faultless. Would highly recommend.

I have been taking my dad to the clinic for around three months and we are very pleased with the service provided and the results that we can already see in the short period of treatment. My dad has been having constipation and urination problems for over 20 years and have never found treatment. Since starting the treatment at HI shifa clinic we have had weekly appointments where my dad has been advised on how to change his diet to help his condition and also regular acupuncture sessions which have caused a drastic change on his day to day life.
Highly recommend for others who are also facing

I have been having weekly session at the clinic since March following a jaw surgery in January. As someone who has been suffering a locked jaw and restricted in terms of eating and usual day to day activity, I can honestly say that acupuncture and treatment from Shifa clinic has changed me both physically and mentally. My needs were listened to from the beginning and every session begins with check ins and updates on how I have been feeling.
When originally visiting the clinic, I was only able to eat liquid foods and was in so much pain that I could barely go for walks, now almost 5 months later

Hey everyone😊
Outstanding quality of service here with one of the best people I have met,
I was suffering from severe back pains, so bad I couldn’t sleep at night nor could I do day to day activities without suffering from back aches. Thanks so much for taking your time to understand my pains and helping to get rid of it. I will definitely recommend anyone that needs to see a physician to go see this individual. He is very very advanced at what he does.
Have a nice day😎

I have been suffering from back pains and autoimmune symptoms for years. After trying everything from modern medicine, osteopathy, physiotherapy... I came across Al Shifa. Within a week or two of acupuncture and following a diet plan my back pains went away. I feel great now. I only hoped I new about Al shifa clinic sooner. Highly recommended..

I booked moxibustion sessions during my pregnancy to help turn my breech baby the right way round and the whole experience was made really lovely and pleasant by Ishrat. Anddd the moxibustion worked too as my baby turned the right way round which I was over the moon with!! Thanks Ishrat! She really is great at what she does, informs and explains everything and clearly knows her stuff, not to mention is just a lovely person in general.

I had never had Accupuncture or cupping before, I was always a bit sceptical actually. I was pleasantly surprised. The treatment I have received from Ishrat has been of the highest quality and has made me feel better than I have felt in years. When I leave I feel happy, pain free and on cloud 9. I was never expecting to feel better so quickly especially as there are multiple issues to deal with. I like the way everything is dealt with together instead of one at a time like the G.P normally does. I am having weekly treatments and would highly recommend this clinic.

A sceptic in accupunture, I came to see Ishrath my therapist i was very hyper, stressed and a total insomniac, I hadnt slept for months. My therapist took a holistic approach taking time to find out about me my lifestyle. Following several regular sessions combining accupuncture and hijama i am now more relaxed & focused , sleeping well during the night.
