Unfortunately I came with acute pain and I had acupuncture attached to a tens machine and it did absolutely nothing. Very disappointing as I had high hopes!! Waste of $130.

Unfortunately based on my personal experience, I cannot recommend this clinic. I called to cancel an appointment, leaving a message. Someone called me back to confirm I wished to cancel. I called again, leaving another message saying YES, I need to cancel. I called again to check that the cancellation had been made, and was assured it was. I then received a text reminder for the session that I had now cancelled 3 times, so I called AGAIN to cancel. I then got called and told I'd missed my appointment! I emailed the clinic to let them know about this experience as it made me anxious and stressed, and have received no reply. I had a further issue that I would have preferred to discussed in person with the clinic owner, that being that I felt uncomfortable being alone in the clinic in the evening with a male practitioner. Had I known that there would be no other people there, I would have preferred a different appointment. I don't know of any health/medical clinics who's OHS policy would allow this to happen. Unfortunately I feel too anxious about the situation to return, and I am disappointed that no-one bothered to follow up on my complaint/concern.

I went to Giles with an ear infection. He did acupuncture and gave me a herbal mix to take. It began to clear up within a couple of days. He was very friendly and took great care I'm treating me. I wouldn't hesitate I'm recommending him. Thanks Giles!

IllustrationWellness journalsThe 5-Minute Gratitude JournalSophia Godkin, PhD
A guided journal with short daily prompts: a few lines in the morning, a few at night. Undated, so a missed day costs nothing.
Makes a giftGoes well with Mindfulness coaching
Why we picked it
A journal only works if it is short enough to keep doing. This one asks for five minutes and three lines, which is the amount most people will actually write, and undated pages mean no guilt about the gaps. A good gift because nobody buys it for themselves.

James Nestor's account of how we breathe and how we used to, drawing on breathing traditions, pulmonology and his own experiments. Paperback edition.
Good for beginnersGoes well with Breathwork
Why we picked it
If a breathwork class has left you curious about why any of it works, this is the book to read next. It is a reporter's book rather than a manual, which is why it is so readable, and it sends most people back to class with better questions.
