Dr Deniah Pachai

Dr. Deniah Pachai is an Integrated Health GP currently working in a Salaried role at Heathrow Medical Centre in West London and in Urgent Care. With over 20 years of experience in healthcare, Dr. Pachai combines both Eastern and Western medical practices to promote health and well-being. 

Her journey into integrated health began in 2014 when she trained as a Lu Jong Yoga Teacher and in Western Medical Acupuncture. She found both practices personally beneficial during a challenging period in her life and wanted to make them accessible to her patients.

She offers private Acupunture treatments at Back 2 Wellbeing in South Ealing and the Light Centre in Marylebone. In addition, she teaches acupuncture for the British Medical Acupuncture Society (BMAS) in the UK and India.

Passionate about health promotion and disease prevention, Dr. Pachai believes that by combining Health Coaching strategies, Eastern wisdom with Western medical knowledge she is able to offer a more holistic approach to wellness. 

She is dedicated to helping patients improve their overall well-being by raising awareness of the 7 Dimensions of Health - physical, mental, emotional, nutritional, relationships, financial and spiritual health.

During the COVID pandemic, Dr. Pachai taught free classes of the 10-minute Five Elements Movements of Lu Jong online and was deeply moved by how much it helped people with their physical and mental health. These online classes have continued through Doctors Do Yoga CIC, a social enterprise she co-founded with Dr Mike Cummings. 

She and Mike appreciate the simplicity, versatility, and relevance of Tibetan practices to modern health challenges as they help individuals connect with themselves, others, and nature. This has inspired other doctors to practice the Five Elements Movements, some of whom have gone forward to train as Lu Jong teachers under her guidance.

Deniah and Mike enjoy long walks in nature, stopping somewhere inspiring to practice the Five Elements Movements - no special equipment or clothing is needed to do them.

Dr. Pachai has expanded her knowledge to include Breathwork, Stretch Coaching, Tog Chöd wisdom sword practice and Shiné Calm-abiding Meditation.
