Meet Vivienne

BSc Econ ( Hons), MBAcC, MATCM.

I have spent many years studying the most effective acupuncture techniques available in the world today, alongside studying with some of the most highly regarded Chinese medicine practitioners outside of China, including Dr Tan and Professor Shulan Tang who is qualified in Chinese medicine from both Nanjing and Beijing Universities. The latter having an impressive herbal medicine lineage stretching back to the chief physician of the last Emperor of China(!).

My focus is on the study of traditional techniques, not widely known in the West, such as the Balance method, Distal acupuncture for pain relief and Master Tung points. I have a particular interest in treating chronic health problems of all kinds.

I believe that illness is often a spiritual dis ease.  When we discover the meaning and purpose of our pain, it is easier to move on and heal our bodies, minds and souls.
