Tom Kennedy Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine Bristol

After months and months of intense/throbbing temporal headaches, I decided to give Tom a call and see if he could help me. I have had 2 acupuncture sessions and started taking Chinese herbal medicine daily for the last 4 weeks, and I am very happy to say that I have not had 1 headache since! I wasn't too sure how quickly I would see results, but I have to say I am quite impressed and happy with Tom's professionalism. He listened to all my weird and wonderful symptoms in the first session and has since been altering my herbal medicine formula in response to my reaction/improvements. I would highly recommend Tom if you have consistent symptoms for which doctors aren't able to help and mainstream medication isn't working out for you. In my situation I have felt relieved instantly after the first session and it was a massive weight off my shoulders! The treatment has also helped me with symptoms of frequent anxiety/panic attacks, and has really given me a more stable/relaxed mood in the last month.

I had chronic pain for 6 years and I tried literally EVERYTHING. Since the first appointment I noticed a lot of improvement (the worse point is not even hurting anymore) and even my mood is better. I bet it's helping with anxiety/depression issues too. Tom is not just a good professional, but he is also a nice human. I highly recommend him!

Great experience with Tom, I am a marathon runner experiencing tightness and tension through my ITB band and shins so tried acupuncture as part of a wider rehab plan to reduce tension in the area and I felt the treatment very much aided my recovery - added to that Tom was great in every session and made me feel at ease with a process that I hadn’t experienced before.

I started to seeing Tom in January 2021 (every 2 weeks) with a very complex health condition. Right after the first treatment my condition improved a lot. He is extremely professional, caring, understanding and knowledgeable. Since then I moved out from Bristol but keep coming back to see him in every second week as his treatment inimitable.

When I first visited Tom I had a collection of different long covid symptoms, the main ones being fatigue and insomnia. Tom was very understanding of my symptoms and always gave me the time to speak in detail. Overall, I had 6 acupuncture sessions and a two week course of herbal tea that he formulated for me specific to my symptoms. I couldn't believe the results - I can now say that 6 months since first seeing Tom, I have now fully recovered from something that I thought would take years to get over.
