“I had a series of treatments with Point of Difference. The treatment itself was comfortable and professional and the open communication allowed me to understand the procedures. Alexei is very personable and his diagnosis helped me to better understand my body and its systems and how I might adapt my lifestyle to better support my personal health and goals. Highly recommend.”

“I have been to Alexei for one treatment so far, soon to have another. I went to Alexei for the relief of stress and tension. I found Alexei to be very knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about his practice. Alexei provides a comfortable and relaxing environment to be in, in turn I was able to relax and fully let go into the treatment. For days afterwards I felt the effects of the treatment. My mood was positively impacted and a lot of tension and tightness eased.”

“I went to Point of Difference Acupuncture for persistent muscular tension and headaches. After two treatments (over the span of two days) including heat therapy, auriculotherapy, traditional acupuncture needling and cupping techniques, my headaches and tension symptoms resolved completely. Though I had initially been nervous about the needling as this was my first experience of a Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment, in the end it was barely noticeable and I easily relaxed into the treatment; I loved the results and would highly recommend Alexei and Point of Difference Acupuncture.”

“I have been to Point of Difference Acupuncture for treatment of a sore shoulder and neck pain that has persisted for a number of years.
Alexei put me at ease straight away, He is very professional and very knowledgeable. The whole process was stress-free.
I had Traditional Acupuncture, Cupping, Heat Therapy and Auriculotherapy,
I felt the results almost immediately with muscle tension eased, once home I noticed a much-improved range of motion with my shoulder and pain-free.
I can highly recommend Point of Difference Acupuncture.”

“Exceptional skill, pleasant atmosphere, and a cool studio make every session with Alexei a rejuvenating experience. His expertise and welcoming demeanor create a holistic healing environment that leaves you feeling balanced and refreshed. Highly recommended.”

“I was a bit nervous, not sure what to expect but Alexei was so friendly, open and his humor set me at ease immediately. I was surprised about the detail of the initial consultation and investigation Alexei undertook to get a holistic picture of, not only my symptoms, but my entire being and lifestyle. He very patiently explained with great depth how things interlink and I feel in awe about the wealth of knowledge he posesses and is able to communicate in easy understandable terms. During the treatment, I felt comfortable, and he explained at all times what is happening and what sensation to expect. The acupuncture was done with ease and the cupping was an amazing sensation, even though my back is now very colorful it feels great. I will observe my body definitely more closely from now on, so I will be able to report back the changes I experienced when I have my next session with Alexei.”

“I have had a couple of appointments with Alexei at Point of Difference Acupuncture so far. Both acupuncture sessions were beneficial in improving my overall health & unblocking stuck energy. My main concerns were fatigue & muscle weakness following herbicide/pesticide poisoning. Following both treatments, I felt the need to rest & take it easy for a day or 2. But then I had more energy, motivation & feeling stronger. Alexei also gives nutrition, lifestyle advise & homework such as working on pressure points. Alexei makes one feel that they are being listened too & cared for in a warm safe environment. I really like that Alexei holds a good qualification, continues to educate himself, is very professional, is friendly, kind & caring. I highly recommend Alexei & look forward to more sessions. Thank you.”

I really must let people know about Alexei at Point Of Difference Acupuncture.
I had been suffering from constant back pain for many years and despite the excellent work of an osteopath which gave me only relatively temporary relief I decided to give acupuncture a go and I have never looked back.
Alexei does a thorough investigation into how you are feeling and compiles a comprehensive data sheet on your particular problem which is so far away from some other ‘medical professionals’ where you leave their rooms thinking “well that was a waste of time”!!!
My first treatment gave me the ability to get a decent night’s sleep without painkillers – I can’t stress enough what a difference this has made to my life.
I went back for a follow up appointment several months later and again this made my back (and neck) even better, I was actually astounded as I thought manipulation would be the only answer, I was so wrong!
Alexei is a wonderful person who makes you totally comfortable and relaxed by explaining everything he is doing clearly and in detail.

Alexei creates a safe and relaxing environment with his smily affable nature. He makes it easy to discuss the treatment and is very knowledgable and professional in his explanations and approach. I had traditional needling, cupping and auriculotherapy in one treatment and enjoyed the process and healing results. The practice room is very beautiful too, a rustic cute little space.

Alexei was very thorough in examining what it was I was suffering from. He was also very helpful and informative with his process .. a very nice chap
And success! I could breathe better

Thorough evaluation at the beginning with on-going concern for your wellbeing which was appreciated! Flexible for appointments was also A1..
