Patient testimonials

Read what patients have to say about Ruth’s care and their experience of acupuncture.

I came to Ruth after struggling for many years with Anxiety. Ruth’s kind nature and understanding knowledge made me feel completely at ease and therefore open to respond well to the acupuncture. I now feel so much calmer & am able to keep my Anxiety under control, which is the bet feeling. Thank you Ruth, you’re one in a million!

Mrs T, Birmingham

I came to Ruth with migraines and neck tension.  Over the course of the acupuncture my neck pain is significantly improved.  My migraines, once frequent, are now few & far between.  Thank you so much Ruth its been a long time since my neck has been this good.

Mr DT, Erdington

Ruth has a professional approach which is delivered in a caring way making the treatment a pleasant experience.

Mr B, Nuneaton

I consulted Ruth Wallis in Jan 2013 for help with a recurring chesty cough, which had lasted many weeks, refusing to clear with antibiotics and conventional medicines.

Ruth took a great deal of care to build up a full picture of my state of health, both physical and emotional, considering recent events and family history. I felt my treatment was very closely tailored to meet my particular needs.

The treatment proved extremely helpful and effective. There was a noticeable improvement after the first treatment and by the end, my chest felt completely free. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ruth as an acupuncture practitioner.

Ms H, Somerset

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease almost eight years ago now and, until I met Ruth, I was unaware of the positive impacts that acupuncture could have on my condition.

I have been Ruth’s patient for approaching a year now and, from very early on in the that period the benefits have been quite noticeable: my ‘resting tremor’ is calmer than it was, my joint and back pain have lessened and I genuinely feel more positive and ‘chilled out’!

I am immensely grateful to Ruth, not only for providing such effective treatment, but also for her enthusiastic, diligent, inclusive and, above all, her caring approach to researching, establishing and then ‘evolving’ the optimum treatment plan for me moving forward …

For anyone considering acupuncture therapy for themselves or perhaps for a relative; I would wholeheartedly recommend trying it and, from personal experience, you could not put yourself in a better pair of hands than Ruth’s.

Mr E, Sutton Coldfield

I have known Ruth and had treatment from her for twelve months. She has treated the arthritis in my knees and ankles with wonderful results. She has also significantly helped me with the acid problem in my stomach.

I have total faith and trust in Ruth when she treats me.

Mrs JZ, Erdington

I have been an IBS sufferer for a number of years, recently I reached a low point where my symptoms were impacting on my daily life. I experienced bloating, nausea, anxiety and stomach cramps resulting in disrupted nights associated with diarrhoea, constipation & vomiting. I was afraid to eat a proper evening meal as I couldn’t be sure how my body would react – life was pretty grim, social life zero as I was constantly worrying about getting enough sleep.

On first meeting Ruth I knew I was in good hands as she not only looked at my physical symptoms but looked at me as a whole person – thus enabling her to treat me appropriately – mentally and physically. Since my acupuncture treatment started my symptoms are less frequent, less intense to the point of my condition not dominating my life.

I am more relaxed, much more confident that my symptoms are under control but most of all feel significantly better. I can now lead a normal life again.

I would strongly recommend Ruth’s treatment of my IBS to anyone as it was truly positive and successful approach for me. Thank you Ruth!

Mrs AJS, Sutton Coldfield

I went to try accupuncture with Ruth after I had a severe, unexplainable illness which the gps couldn't explain and I lost my strength and cognitive abilities. She's been absolutely amazing.. after the first session i slept like a baby and regained my strength....9 sessions later I've almost completely recovered, am back at the gym and my anxiety has almost disappeared...will be going back for top up treatments!

Treatment was hugely beneficial and significantly contributed to the improvement in my overall wellbeing. Ruth was also able to signpost me to other health checks I needed to consider, whilst completing acupuncture treatment to improve the presenting condition.

Whilst I was sceptical beforehand, I was encouraged by my family to give acupuncture a go to relieve the considerable pain I was experiencing. I was fortunate to identify Sutton Accupuncture as having a positive reputation. That reputation is well founded. Ruth Wallis is a learned, caring, expert practitioner. I particularly liked her wholistic approach in tackling and reducing my aches and pains . My scepticism was swept away and putting my trust in Ruth's practice and professionalism has paid dividends for me. I am now substantially pain free and have no hesitation whatsoever in commending Sutton Accupunture to you.

I cannot recommend Ruth enough! She has been absolutely amazing throughout my treatment. From the very first session, she took the time to really listen, understand my concerns, and tailor each appointment to suit my needs. Her approach is not only incredibly professional but also warm, caring, and genuinely supportive. I’ve noticed such a positive improvement in both my physical and mental wellbeing since starting acupuncture with her. If you’re looking for a practitioner who truly goes above and beyond, look no further , you’re in the best hands!

I have been visiting Ruth for several months. She is skilled, knowledgable, with a wealth of experience in accupuncture and related issues. She has listened and tailored her treatment to my physical symptoms. She has helped both my physical and mental health and I thoroughly recommend her.

Ruth is a friendly, very professional and knowledgeable acupuncturist. She thoroughly explained the process of what she would be doing, which made me feel comfortable. The room was clean and warm which made me relaxed. I have seen wonderful improvements and am feeling much better now. Can’t recommend enough!

I reached out to Ruth when I was first diagnosed with a complex autoimmune condition and in a tremendous amount of daily pain. I was genuinely desperate and willing to try anything that might help. I thank my lucky stars that I stumbled upon Ruth, as the difference that her treatment has made on my health is remarkable. Her approach is a holistic one, and in the 18 months I have been visiting her, she has worked wonders on my physical health, pain levels and emotional wellbeing. The treatments offered sit alongside the traditional western medicine offered by my GP and consultant, but I truly believe that - in addition to independently helping with my pain levels and inflammation - the acupuncture has enabled the traditional medication to work most effectively. The treatments offered are adapted at each session to provide the most benefit and impact to her clients. She is patient, kind and understanding, and is happy to tailor her treatment to your needs, whether you need a weekly appointment or an ad hoc session when your condition flares twice a year. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Go with an open mind, and see for yourself the impact she and her treatments are able to have.

I've been a patient of Ruth's for a couple of years now. Her knowledgeable, kind, patient, and professional demeanour has always put me at ease. So much so that our daughter now visits as well. She has become an invaluable part of my well-being, helping me navigate not only physical aches and pains but also the emotional challenges life throws my way. Her treatments have made a significant difference in my life; I’d wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone.
