BACKGROUND TO MY WORK IN TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE AND OTHER
THERAPIES
I
have been working as a therapist for around twenty years
initially on a part-time basis. Ten years ago I gave up my work
in business training and development to concentrate full-time on
my practice in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Over the years I have
extended and developed my interest and competence in Chinese Medicine
as the way in which I can best work to help my clients prevent,
or recover from, a wide range of conditions.
For ten years I have been working alongside a team of western
doctors in their surgery in Taunton, Somerset. In 2006 I opened my own clinic in North Petherton, (between Taunton & Bridgwater, Somerset)
