“I had heaps of pain in my
shoulders and back, but after a few minutes with Nina, I felt fantastic
again. Thanks!”
Matt Moore
“I was extremely sore and in pain
for four days after having physio on my lower back. After Nina’s
treatment, I was able to move without pain – a magic
effect!”
Helen Holmes
“I’m needle phobic, yet
extremely comfortable with the non-insertion needle acupuncture and
Bowen Therapy Nina does. I was most definitely a non-believer until my
first visit. I was impressed by the remarkable results – I could
breathe freer with my asthma. I feel a million dollars.”

“My 17 year old son had a
terrible rash on his hands and torso for months. After just one
treatment from Nina, the rash had visibly improved and after two more
treatments, had disappeared completely. His confidence returned and now
the embarrassing months are just a bad dream.”
Anne , May 2008
“When I first went to Nina, I had
been experiencing intense feelings of agitation and emotional
instability for many years. Nina treated me with acupuncture and
Thought Field Therapy, and after just two sessions, I felt much
stronger and in control of my life. I feel better able to cope with and
accept life. It’s worked wonders.”
Dianne Bensley

“My daughter had suffered Chronic
Fatigue Syndrome for some time and I with low energy levels. After
trying other alternative and orthodox medical treatments with no
lasting relief, we were treated by Nina with acupuncture and Allergy
Elimination Therapy (NAET). We both experienced a significant increase
in our energy levels. My daughter no longer suffers the muscular aches
she experienced prior to therapy and has improved digestion and
health.”

“My son, 19 years old, has
suffered from a condition known as ‘cholinergic urticaria’
since 1995. In an attempt to alleviate the urticaria, we have tried
everything! We have seen a dermatologist, immunologist, several MDs and
spoken to several chemists. We have tried vitamin therapy, all
over-the-counter antihistamines, stomach acid blockers and a host of
prescription drugs. Nothing touched it! Then we heard about Nina
through a friend. We first visited Nina in October 2007 and she has
done eight Toyohari treatments. The improvements in my son’s
condition included much decreased redness, much fewer eruptions of acne
on his back, improved bowel movements and the itchy urticaria now
almost non-existent. This outcome is such a God-send. Thanks Nina! You
have literally saved us!
Jacqui , January 2008
“My whole family has been
treated by Nina and we have all been very grateful and astounded by the
results she is able to achieve. Having been in the Natural Therapies
industry myself, I appreciate that there can often be a significant
disparity between therapists in terms of professionalism and results
achieved, as well as the longevity of those results. Nina is a genuine
person who is generous with her time and passionate about her work and
helping people. Nina has an integrity that is evident in all she does
and conducts her clinic in a professional way.”

I was diagnosed with stage 3c ovarian
cancer in November 2002. My doctor confirmed that I had a 20% chance of
surviving for 5 years. The cancer was back in a couple of months
following extensive surgery and strong chemo treatment. I was told that
the cancer was incurable. I decided to try alternative medicine as well
as what the doctor ordered! I started having acupuncture treatments in
August 2003 and immediately felt that something had lifted. Last year,
I was recommended to Nina who was practising Toyohari acupuncture. As I
have had about 50 chemo treatments and 20 radiation treatments during
the past five years, I am often very tired and in need of a boost. And
that is exactly what Nina is giving me. My strength is gradually coming
back. My doctor has told me that I surprise him because my cancer count
is like a roller coaster ride. I do not believe that acupuncture will
cure my cancer, but that it will make my body stronger, so it can fight
the cancer. I am convinced that acupuncture has prolonged my
life.

For 34 years I have suffered from Essential
Tremors, a debilitating neurological disorder of the central nervous
system characterized by uncontrolled shaking which in turn causes
tiredness, weakness, pain and nausea and affects my balance and fine
motor skills. I have tried many doctors, medications and therapies but
nothing seemed to help. Then I tried Nina’s Toyohari Acupuncture
and there has been a definite improvement. Back pain is better, and
walking and handwriting have improved. My voice and jaw are improved
and the swelling in my tongue has gone down. Thank you Nina.

From infancy I’ve had asthma and never
felt completely well. In my 20s, I developed a nasal drip which caused
further irritation and ill health. Medication never really helped. I
saw a naturopath, a kinesiologist, a homeopath and a Chinese herbalist,
all to no avail. My lungs got progressively worse until I started
treatment with Nina for suspected allergies. Nina found 54 different
allergies which had compromised my immune system so that I continually
caught viruses. She began to desensitize me and treated my lungs.
Slowly after years of coughing and bad health, I started to get well.
Nina also helped me with hip displacement caused by childbirth for
which I had been seeing chiropractors since my 20s. These treatments
never held. Nina’s treatments have held and I feel much
better.

Before I met Nina, I suffered from Panic
Attacks, I.B.S. and Agoraphobia. After my first treatment from Nina, I
felt very calm and not nervous. After follow-up treatments, I felt so
relaxed and confident, I even went out by myself – amazing, as I
had never done that before, I always had someone with me. Since going
to Nina, I am happier and more relaxed. Friends have noticed the
difference. So thank you Nina.

Coming to Nina has given me a new lease on
life. I used to drag myself around, always tired and aching. After 2
visits to Nina I feel like a new person. I’m sleeping well,
enjoying my food and have the energy to cook nice meals. I’m able
to do things like gardening. My husband has a big smile on his face as
he sees the improvement. My family and friends are grateful for the
change. Thank you Nina, for working a miracle.

Nina was recommended to me after many years
of increasing pain, immobility and other symptoms from FMS
(Fibromyalgia Syndrome). A specialist physician had prescribed daily
preventative pain-relieving medication but medication, physiotherapy
and massage provided only temporary relief. However, after only one
visit with Nina, I noticed improvement in how I was feeling. I have now
been seeing Nina for over 2 years and I sleep better, feel better,
experience less pain and my mobility has improved. Nina has also helped
to improve my immunity. I frequently caught respiratory infections
which would result in prolonged periods of asthma. I would take several
courses of antibiotics each year. I now find I seldom need antibiotics
and look forward to continued improvement in my health.

The arrival of my baby girl was so precious.
However it turned into a nightmare once she was diagnosed with Reflux.
She was most unsettled, cried a lot and was obviously distressed. After
weeks of persevering with prescription medicine, she was treated by
Nina. It was wonderful to see her have a decent feed and sleep. After
only 4 treatments, my little girl is a different baby and so much
happier. The difference is astounding. Nina also helped me overcome
Mastitis. After the arrival of my baby, I was having bouts of Mastitis
every 2 to 3 weeks. Antibiotics were not helping, and were affecting my
health. During my most recent attack of Mastitis, I visited Nina and
within hours the pain and tenderness had subsided. I continued the
treatments and a few weeks on, there has been NO Mastitis and no
engorgement or other mastitis triggers.

I have been having digestion problems ever
since I can remember. The problem worsened every year after my first
baby, 7 years ago. During these years I learned to live with a reduced
diet – I could not eat bread, tomatoes, many fruits, juices,
vegetables, spices, eggs you name it. I suffered bloating, abdominal
pain, indigestion, reflux and heartburn. During my third pregnancy, I
had iron deficiency due to my food allergies/intolerances. I then came
across a piece in the paper by Nina. All the symptoms she described
were exactly what I had. I started a series of treatments with Nina to
combat the allergies. Every treatment was a step closer to feeling
'normal'. When I started picking up and eating more, my body became
stronger and I began acupuncture for the digestive problems –
probably the best treatment I have EVER experienced. The results from
that first session were mind blowing. Because of this success my
husband was treated by Nina for pain he was suffering due to back
injury. Again, the results were amazing! His pain has reduced and he
can walk and bend more freely. We continued our treatments and are now
only on maintenance appointments and are doing great. Nina has a true
gift of healing and I highly recommend her – whether you have
something out of the ordinary or something as little as the start of a
cold, you should let Nina heal you. Don't leave it too late – the
longer you ignore it, the worse it gets, just ask me! THANK YOU
NINA!

I began seeing Nina in March 2010 after
suffering a miscarriage in December 2009. After regular visits, my
cycle normalised and I fell pregnant in June 2010. I continue to visit
Nina regularly throughout my pregnancy. Nina uses Toyohari acupuncture
and moxa treatments which are pain free and very relaxing. I cannot
thank Nina enough.
R Mullins, 2010
I feel so good since starting acupuncture
treatments with Nina! Before, I was very lethargic and depressed and
not feeling at all well, but from the first treatment, I started
feeling the difference. Nina’s treatments have done wonders
for me and even my family comments on how well I
look. Together with the naturopathy treatments I have been
receiving, I have a lot more "joie de vivre". Thank you so very much
Nina.

When I first went to Nina to have
Constitutional Facial Acupuncture done, I not only had low self
esteem about my appearance, but my emotional and general
wellbeing was suffering too. After 10 recommended treatments, I
was a new person. Even after the first two, I felt great. Nina not only
worked on my face but my whole body bringing it back into balance. It's
an amazing feeling. I totally recommend it.
