Acupuncture Qualifications
I graduated from The Acupuncture Academy in Leamington Spa in 2015, where I was awarded their Professional Licentiate in Acupuncture.
My training over 3 years was extensive, covering all aspects of Chinese medical and acupuncture theory, with a focus on the Five Element approach. This means that I am able to consider your main health problem, as well as taking a more holistic approach to you as an individual.
I subsequently undertook further training, completing a Diploma in Acupuncture for gynaecology, fertility and obstetrics from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine in Reading, in 2020. This is a particular field of interest for me, hence the further training.
I am a member of the Association of Acupuncture Clinicians (formerly known as the British Acupuncture Association) and adhere to their Code of Safe Practice and Professional conduct. I am licensed by Broxtowe & Charnwood Borough Councils and I hold full medical malpractice and public/products liability insurance cover.
Reflexology Qualifications
I gained a Diploma in Reflexology at the Oxford School of Reflexology in 2008. I am a full member of the Association of Reflexologists.
My overall aim is to get to know you as a person and tailor the treatment to you as closely as possible.
I also try to provide a wide range of lifestyle advice to support the healing process of the treatment.
Qi Gong Qualifications
I first became exposed to Qi Gong when I was undertaking my acupuncture training, but I really started to practise seriously during the 1st Covid Lockdown. I was familiar enough with Qi Gong to realise that it is extremely beneficial to the immune system, as well as being very helpful for calming the mind & managing stressful situations. Once I started practising regularly, I really came to love Qi Gong and decided to train to become a teacher, so that I could share this wonderful practice with others.
I undertook the HOLDEN QIGONG Teacher Training Program and am now a Holden QiGong Certified Teacher. As well as continuing my own practice, I also undertake plenty of Continuous Professional Development, learning new styles & applications on a regular basis.
