After receiving a postdoctoral degree in biochemistry, I spent several years working on muscular dystrophy and nerve-muscle development in the UK and Canada. With time I also recognized that there wasa lot of wisdom behind the traditional time tested healing arts such as herbal medicine, acupuncture and food therapy. In 1989 I decided I was going to practise natural medicine and I started by attending the Northern College of Acupuncture. Here I qualified in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine.

The principle of all holistic therapies is that the person is treated as a whole; by this it means not just taking into account the obvious presenting symptoms, but instead taking into account thephysical, emotional and spiritual well-being of the person. People often experience physical symptoms such as headaches, skin complaints, digestion problems, etc; these types of symptoms are often the result of imbalances due to factors such as stress or emotional problems.
