Ben's acupuncture is absolutely incredible! It was my first time experiencing acupuncture and Ben made the whole... experience incredibly rewarding with his calm energy and professionalism. I would highly recommend going if you have any pains or migraines, but also if you just want an overall boost in energy and mood. I would definitely recommend to anyone. 10/10 service!read more

I have been an advocate for acupuncture for some 20 years. I use it for its many health benefits but mainly to bring... myself into balance. Ben Carrigan at Acupuncture West London has always delivered an excellent treatment based on what problems I have arrived with. He takes the time to listen and gives you the reassurance you need in order to feel relaxed and enjoy the treatment. He then lets the needles do the work!I can highly recommend Ben as an acupuncturist and thanks again for all those amazing treatments.read more

I've been suffering from "invisible" mobility issues, and constant pain in my upper and lower back/shoulder due to an... untreated slipped disc in my C-spine from approximately two years ago, and have had limited results from Physio/Osteopathy. I recently decided to try acupuncture, and whilst it hasn't entirely rid me of pain or discomfort (I wasn't expecting such!) I have been pleased with the results overall. In addition, my visits to the practice are always very relaxing, and I've been consistently treated with kindness, compassion and respect. I'll continue visiting Ben as a result. Thank you!read more

I was referred to Ben by someone I know who thought acupuncture could be of assistance to myself, having never done it... before I attended with an open mind and it’s been a great help.I did a session every week for 5 weeks and now do one every month. Ben is brilliant, he understands the body and mind extremely well, by having an open conversation before each session he is able to help with exactly what is needed. I couldn’t recommend Ben and the practice highly enough.read more

I have been visiting West London Acupuncture Clinic under the guidance of Ben since August 22 due to suffering with... Trigeminal Neuralgia Type A for the past 2 1/2 years and having undergone a number of procedures including radiotherapy all of which were unsuccessful and I now have been advised that this is a condition that will remain with me for the life.I will be honest, at first I was sceptical having never used acupuncture before however any assistance with the pain I would take my chances. Ben took his time in managing my condition, carefully listening to my symptom's and how I generally felt at the time while explaining how acupuncture can help and I can honestly say that within 6-8 sessions I felt a vast improvement and 6 months on I am now able to managing my pain due to regular visits with Ben while having a much improved quality of life, and those who suffer from this condition will relate to this.100% highly recommend Ben and his Clinic for those sufferers with Trigeminal Neuralgia or any other pain related injuries.Thank you Ben for all you have done and continue to do for me.DavidAged 47read more

Ben is so friendly and kind and explains what he is doing and how the acupuncture works. As a practicing reflexologist... I was very interested to know of the overlap with our holistic care and have had interesting chats with Ben about Chinese medicine and acupuncture. I find his treatment sessions very relaxing and they have really helped with the insomnia issues I was having. I highly recommend a visit.read more

The positive impact Ben Carrigan has had on my health has been extraordinary. I have multiple chronic illnesses, (at... one point it was so bad I was bedridden for over a year). The impact has been so positive that I've been able to ditch all of my pharmaceutical medications and I'm now well enough to re-engage with a Crossfit PT and pick up my weight training again. And the new found energy I have found has been incredible. (My flatmate had only known me as a sick person and since working with Ben she has said "You no longer look like a sick person".What I love about working with Ben is that he really listens, he has that he understands that the body needs to be healed holistically and has a strong understanding not only of Eastern Medicine, but also modern medicine as well (he understands when I explain things my specialists have tested or said/done).But most of all I love the fact that Ben is an instinctive healer. They are rare, all the books and training in the world can't create that ability.I would (and regularly do) recommend Ben to anyone that wants to their body to be given the best chance to heal itself.read more

Ben is absolute magic ✨Having tried everything to deal with PCOS and barely scratching the surface of managing... my symptoms I decided to look up acupuncture, I read lots of data on it and lots of reviews. I was still sceptical, but decided I had nothing left to lose at this stage. I was going to leave no stone unturned in my search for dealing with my symptoms because I just couldn’t imagine spending the rest of my life feeling the way I did.Within 2 sessions, I’ve managed to receive my cycle at 21 days with a better flow, my previous 2 cycles were both 40+ and non existent. I haven’t had a healthy period like this since I was a teenager! My anxiety has reduced massively, my skin is starting to clear up too. I can’t wait to see what changes happen in the coming months.Ben is really knowledgeable and calming. He was able to pick up on things I did not expect him to at all!I would recommended acupuncture with Ben to anyone! & it was definitely worth travelling over an hour to get to, the reviews speak for themselves. Thank you Ben!read more

I’ve done 18 sessions with Ben and I am super happy with the results. Ben starts with a hypothesis and corrects the... approach depending on how the body reacts. I’ve tested many acupuncturists beefier in multiple countries and Ben’s approach so far was the best. I saw the first results after 4-5 sessions (more energy, less stress, +20% HRV as tracked with Oura ring). I also came to Ben with a very specific health problem and I got significant improvements (again, tracked all the numbers and performed regular testing). I only stoped working with Ben because I relocated to another country.read more

I was traveling around Europe recently and developed something called trigeminal neuralgia , the pain was sharp and... constant and preventing me from enjoying my long awaited holiday . I began a treatment of acupuncture with Ben Corrigan and I felt the benefits straight away , with consultations 2 or 3 days apart to begin with . Ben explained every step of the treatment in a very eloquent and reassuring manner , he had a clear plan of action and was confident he would be able to help me . I can’t speak highly enough of Ben’s competence in acupuncture and I am pleased to say that in just over 2 weeks he helped me get better, end the pain and get my energy level back to where it was. I am so grateful to his knowledge and his practice as I had seen other specialists previously who didn’t give me any results . Thanks Ben , you deserve a 5 star review .read more

I cannot recommend Ben at Acupuncture West London enough. He is extremely knowledgeable, warm and friendly. The pain in... my hip and lower back caused by sciatica has disappeared thanks to my sessions with him. The sessions have also worked on the emotional level, as well as the physical, and I experienced some profound healing through emotional release. I have also noticed my energy levels increase too. I would absolutely recommend visiting him. (:read more

I came to see Ben with some fairly severe and life limiting migraine and Menieres symptoms. After 5 weeks of... acupuncture, massage and a special diet I am almost completely symptom for the vast majority of time. Also if I am symptomatic at all it is at a very low level when compared to before the treatment. Ben is great and I would highly recommend him personally and also the practice as a whole.read more

Ben's service and ability are beyond a 5 star rating. With every treatment he takes the time and precision to... understand what the client needs, and how best to treat them. He himself has a calming energy that takes away any anxiety associated with this type of treatment. As a fitness instructor I've seen Ben for various issues ranging from sports injuries, to psychological blocks. I've had no hesitation recommending him to clients of mine with similar issues. I recommend Ben's service to anyone who is looking for an effective way to better their health.read more

I first went to see Ben with a very specific muscular issue that I wanted to resolve. However after a really in depth... consultation talking about more than just muscle pain Ben took a different approach for which I’m incredibly grateful. As is often the way the symptom is very rarely the cause! I have now been working with Ben for a few months and feel so much more improved. He has been infinitely patient, considerate, sensitive to my needs and adapted his treatment depending on what he found on the day. If you want to improve your wellbeing, see a practitioner that’s really going to take the time to listen and not dish out the same treatment to every patient then please do go and see Ben. You won’t regret it. Thank you Ben!read more

Ben Carrigan has been an excellent professional in providing regular Acupuncture treatment for me. I came to Ben with a... long term medical condition which has caused me ongoing pain problems and a long term use of pain killers and anti inflammatory medication. Ben has successfully removed my dependency on medication by reducing inflammation and improving my all round health / body function. I can highly recommend Ben’s treatment to others.read more

Ben has helped me manage back and neck issues ranging from acute sciatic pain down to the general stiffness and aches... from poor posture and spending too long at a desk. Sometimes it has taken several treatments, often just a single one, but Ben has always managed to bring the relief from pain and give the freedom of movement that was required, and so is my first port of call when I feel something is wrong. I highly recommend him.read more

I would definitely recommend him!read more
