Elma McElligott LAc

Having suffered from chronic neck pain intermittently for many years and more recently constant back pain, I contacted Elma in desperation. Elma is very professional and a knowledgable acupuncturist. A warm and empathetic person who explains the treatment and has suggested ways to maintain and improve my quality of movement. The treatment, carried out in a relaxing and soothing environment, has meant that after only a few weeksI have been able to stop taking strong painkillers which in turn has improved my wellbeing. Highly recommended.

I have been having a very hard time with back pain including a slipped disk and have tried all sorts of things to help sort this problem. After having treatment with Elma I have now stop all of my medication and am relatively pain free, will be keeping up sessions with her to make sure I stay pain free. Elma is always warm and inviting which makes you feel very comfortable having acupuncture with her.

Elma puts you at ease straight away and explains everything she is doing . Very professional and after a few sessions started to feel so much better. I can thoroughly recommend Elma if you are thinking of having Accupunture.

I had been suffering from a very bad bout of sciatica and had been to see several physiotherapists and chiropractors, who were unable to ease my pain. When I came to see Elma one morning I could hardly walk and was in terrible pain. However, after one session with her, I was able to walk out of the room with little pain. A couple more sessions and the pain remained under control. What a relief after several months of terrible pain in my back, bottom, quads, shin and foot. AND an amazing bonus!!! Elma noticed a mole in an area of my side I could not see. It was not looking good and she said I needed to have it checked out at the doctors asap. It turned out to be a melanoma and I have since had two small operations to remove the mole and any melanoma cells that might have been lurking on the edge of the area cut out. So a big thank you Elma for saving me a possible very dangerous end result. Ken Lucas
