Please be aware when reading the testimonials on my website that they are the personal opinions of my patients based on their response to homoeopathic treatment.
The results are not evidence based medicine but reports of individual clinical responses.
“When I first came to see Nicky six years ago, I had no experience of homeopathy. I have since come to use appointments with Nicky as a key part of our family’s health, well-being and even sanity. She is deeply kind and has a care and tenacity that allows her to get to the root of a situation accurately but gently. We have had countless successes through homeopathic remedies prescribed by Nicky: from obliterating my life-long eczema problem to hay fever, mastitis and colds and coughs, usually without having to resort to antibiotics. She has supported me through successful IVF treatment and a straight-forward pregnancy. Nicky is the ideal accompaniment to conventional medicine as she can safely prescribe remedies for less tangible situations that doctors are often not equipped to address, like a child’s distress or an imbalanced emotional state. I have recommended her to numerous friends and colleagues who have had similar positive results.”

“I originally came to Nicky with the goal of treating my bad skin, a problem which was possibly triggered by stress when I took a step into the unknown with a major career change. It’s now 3 years on and it’s been a long journey, one that Nicky’s advice and treatment has supported all the way. Nicky’s sensitive and insightful approach has been immensely valuable for me, and in homoeopathy I have found a system of alternative medicine that can treat everything and anything that comes my way. In the process of finding how to improve my skin, I have used Nicky’s treatment and advice for things as diverse as an infected wisdom tooth (where it was able to provide immediate and acute relief from a great deal of pain), alternatives to travel injections, a cat allergy (improved to the point that I am now a proud cat owner) and hormonal balance.
Over the last 3 years, Nicky has worked steadily and insightfully on improving my general health and wellbeing and I have noticed a huge overall improvement in how I feel physically and emotionally. My skin is now looking better than it has for a long time and although its been a long journey, so many things have been healed along the path that I trust the process of homoeopathy. I find Nicky’s method of using kinesiology as a diagnostic tool to be accurate and powerful, and as a practitioner I find Nicky intuitive, kind and committed. I feel very lucky to have had her support in my life”

“Last winter had been a rough time for my son who was then only 2 years old. He had suffered from recurring ear infections, coughs and colds and a nose that didn‘t stop running. We were regular visitors of the local GP surgery or, if it was the weekend, the A&E department. Many times we came home with a prescription for antibiotics- since the infections were quite strong or lingered on for quite a while. All in all my son had to take 4 courses of antibiotics in a very short period of time.
Not only he was exhausted by all of this, I was fed up, too. My increasing worries as to the effect of so many courses of antiobitics over such a short period of time were diffused by the doctors. They said “it was quite normal for a child of this age to have eight infections per winter”and “it wouldn‘t harm him in the long run” and that “there is no alternative”. Especially the last sentence stuck with me. Isn‘t there really, I wondered, does my son have no other route than that of paracetamol, ibuprofen and if worst comes to worst, an antiobitic?
I had heard from homeopathy and the positive effect it had on their small children through friends and family but being a natural sceptic I had never seriously considered trying this sort of medicine. For me homeopathy were little white pills that came close to placebo. I wouldn‘t try this sort of treatment unless I was really desperate, I had thought. But that time had come now. I was really desperate. I wanted my son to get better- not only cure him when a virus had settled but to prevent so many nasty bugs from choosing my son as a host in the first place. I wanted my son to be a stronger version of himself. That‘s when I looked up homeopathic practitioners in the phone book and luckily found Nicky Lee‘s number.
I don‘t want to go into all the details or turn this into a “miracle story” but I can honestly say that this visit and all the following ones was the best thing I could have done for my son‘s health. Diligently, knowingly and full of good energy Nicky went through her anamnesis and her tests- my son took to the treatment from day one.
The change in him and his general stamina is quite striking now but change came gradually, day after day, week after week, globuli after globuli. Over the months my son became more stable in himself, less prone to catch anything and if he did, the runny nose just stayed what it was: a runny nose and not the entrance to something bigger. The effect of the treatment was so convincing, even for a sceptic like me, that I immediatley took our youngest son also (then about 6 months old) to Nicky, when he had developed a wheezing cough- and gradually got rid of it- without antibiotics, without hospitalization.
Nowadays (and it only is only six months later!) illnesses have lost their dramatic impact on me- I can deal with both boys falling ill now and again much better which in itself probably has a beneficial effect on their getting and staying better. My oldest son not only is a healthier and stronger, but overall a happier child. His appetite has increased, the circles around his eyes have vanished and if he does get ill, he seems to be able to deal with it much better. He even enjoys taking his little globuli, “bonbons” as we call them, and looks forward to every visit we pay Nicky, but thanks to her treatment they are not very often.
I can only thank Nicky Lee for all she initiated in the health of both of my boys and recommend her methods of treatment.”

‘Nicky came highly recommended through word of mouth. Everyone is impressed by her, by her skills, her support and her repertoire of tools; homoeopathy, kinesiology, nutritional advice, counselling skills etc. She has such a deep interest in her clients. Her work has created big, positive changes in my family’s physical and emotional health, for which I am very grateful.’

“I’ve worked with Nicky on maximising my health and vitality for over 5 years. That might sound as though I have major health problems, but it’s not the case. I see Nicky primarily as my ‘personal trainer’ for my overall wellbeing but also as my ‘doctor’ when I do, from time to time, get ill. I had a run-of-the-mill viral chest infection a while back which kept me off work for two weeks. By the middle of the second week I’d had enough of feeling lousy so I called Nicky and described in detail all my symptoms. She got a remedy to me at home the very next day – and by the same evening, my symptoms had subsided dramatically. I was back in work two days later with no remaining symptoms. Homeopathy really is that good. She’s also helped me overcome menstrual issues, grievance, stress and a long-term eating disorder.
Nicky can certainly respond to one-off illnesses, afflictions or symptoms and many patients work with her on that basis. She can also offer a longer-term kind of partnership with you on your own health, getting to know and understand both your physical and emotional profile. This means you can begin to address not only surface symptoms but also the underlying root causes of your key issues. Either way, Nicky works with the patient, not on the patient. You get to talk and describe. She listens and thinks. Then she’ll ‘muscle test’ – a simple, non-invasive and fascinating way of communicating directly with your body to check and diagnose just the right type, potency and frequency of remedies that will work best for you.
Nicky is highly skilled and experienced, with a passion for understanding your overall context, not just the presenting symptoms, meaning she can work at a holistic level with you and add huge value to your wider health and wellbeing at a more macro level. She has helped me decipher my patterns and my pitfalls, my thresholds and my weak spots. This has had a much wider impact on my own ability to manage my wellbeing. So I see my investment in my sessions with Nicky as a long-term preventative approach to health. Regular check-ins with Nicky ensure I remain on top form and avoid the levels of toxicity that most people harbour unwittingly in their daily lives.
She’s also incredibly innovative and enthusiastic, investing in her continuous professional development which means she brings the latest ideas, techniques and solutions directly to the benefit of the patient. I’d call her a holistic health professional rather than a homeopath. She has a rare gift.”

I was diagnosed with Crohn’s in 1996 and spent the following seven years on a cocktail of drugs to try and control my condition and in particular control the excruciatingly painful reactive arthritis that was triggered every time I had a flare-up. I had six or seven flare-ups in those seven years and never felt completely well, the slightest change in my diet would upset the Crohn’s and I always walked with a limp due to the arthritis in my knees. Although I had periods when the arthritis wasn’t too bad it never went away completely.
I really felt (and my doctors were unable to tell me otherwise) that my life was heading down a road I didn’t want it to. After each flare up my medication was increased or I was put on a stronger drug but far from improving things I was getting steadily worse – each Crohn’s flare up was worse than the last and I was losing more and more mobility in my joints – plus the repeated high doses of steroids meant I was also suffering from osteoporosis.
I was also getting married and desperately wanted to have children but felt so ill I didn’t imagine I’d be able to conceive and worried whether I’d physically be able to look after a child – during flare ups and when the arthritis was bad I could hardly look after myself let alone a child. I felt mentally and physically awful and was worried about was going to happen to me in the future.
So I decided to take back control, I’d read an article about a lady with Crohn’s who’d been treated by a colleague of Nicky’s and decided to give Homeopathy another go – I tried it before but not really given it a proper go. I made my first appointment with Nicky in April 2003 and haven’t really looked back. I came off all medication about 6 months after I started seeing Nicky and 12 months after that gave birth (naturally) to health baby girl (8lb 2oz) after an easy and straight forward pregnancy.
I had another flare up when my daughter was four months old l (my hospital doctors said this is very common with Crohn’s but retrospectively I think it was triggered by me going back on the pill) and had to go back on steroids to get the Crohn’s and arthritis back under control. But this was just a ‘blip’ and I am in the process of coming off all medication again (I’m nearly there) so that my husband and I can have another baby.
I have seen Nicky regularly throughout the past three years and will continue to see her frequently until my health is as good as can be – although even when I am feeling 100% I’ll probably go every few months just to make sure I stay that way. And I know that I might have flare-ups in the future but I am confident that with Nicky’s help and support I’ll get through them.
Homeopathy (and Nicky) completely turned my life around, it frightens me to think what I’d be like now if I hadn’t tried Homeopathy – but I did, and at this moment I am looking forward to a happy, health future with my husband and child(ren!).

“My daughter is 11 years old and suffered from recurrent verrucas, not only has Nicky successfully treated her for this problem but has also helped her emotionally through a very anxious time of changing from primary to secondary school. She has helped me overcome stresses, both physical and emotional – whether it be using her skills in homoeopathy, muscle testing or flower remedies. I find Nicky sensitive, non-judgemental and I feel relaxed in the warm and friendly environment of her practice.”
