I am a traditional acupuncture expert, and have my own acupuncture style, developed after practising for over 19 years and having learnt different styles of acupuncture developed from ancient techniques.

I am passionate about acupuncture and Chinese medicine, the awareness it gives me and how I can use this to show people how to improve their health. I use fine needles to make the process as painless as possible.

I blend ancient theories of Chinese medicine with modern and alternative medicine to give a deep insight into illness and disharmony within my clinical practice. I then use several complementary medicine treatment strategies to tackle the problem, allowing for a quicker recovery.

I believe in the importance of explaining to people what is going on with them and the disharmony they have, as this ultimately empowers them. This then allows myself and the patient to work consciously together to improve their health.
