We saw Mr Soper for my daughter, who experience lots of headaches & migraines. His explanation was incredible and not only did he give her the daith piercings in both ears, he gave her exercises to help with neck and posture issues. We would highly recommend. So far so good with the headaches.

Richard explained everything to me. From the reason that I could be having my migraines to exercises to help my posture and how the piercings can help. Was a very good experience and would recommend having these done. I had a migraine starting this morning and the pressure in my head relaxed during the acupuncture.

Really didn’t know what to expect, especially didn’t expect to talk about how bad my posture is! Had it done yesterday morning and had a brilliant nights sleep, cut the grass and my head didn’t hurt! (Long story, but brilliant news) Feel so much better and this only being 24 hours after the piecing!

Excellent communication and explanation of the reason for migraines and the medical terminology was broken down in a way we could understand

Richard was very knowledgable and explained everything in detail. The piercing itself was quick. Felt instant relief from the acupressure needles. Would highly recommend

I visited Richard Soper for a daith piercing for my chronic migraines. After 20 years of suffering from migraines, I was impressed that he shared things I hadn’t previously heard from doctors or other practitioners. His knowledge on migraines from a holistic perspective is extensive. In addition to a double daith piericing, he recommended rehabilitation exercises for long term prevention and management for my specific migraine triggers. I left feeling hopeful for the first time that I would be able to experience pain reduction. It’s been the 4th day of having the piercings so I’ll monitor results, but on day one I already felt a huge release of muscle tension that normally constantly plagues me. One of the best results from all of this is a major reduction in anxiety. It seems like my previous ‘normal’, of constant overthinking and anxiety, has recalibrated to a much calmer, relaxed state of being. All in all, I’m so grateful for Richard’s expertise and I’m feeling optimistic about my healing journey based on his guidance.
