A Passion for Healing

A Journey Dedicated to Your Health

Adrian has dedicated his working life to helping people feel the best they can be. He completed Sports and Remedial Therapies qualifications in 2002, before following his heart and studying Chinese Medicine.

Adrian graduated as a Chinese Medicine Practitioner in July 2012.

After graduating, Adrian wanted to seek out the very best teachers in his field, so he travelled the world in search of these leaders. He trained with renowned acupuncturists in Bangkok, Thailand, Beijing, China, and the USA. He learned a unique method of pulse diagnosis and herbs from masters in NYC, Seattle, and LA.

Chinese Medicine is an ancient healing art; however, its philosophy is forever changing and adapting like nature. This constant evolution is the reason that it is so successful today and will continue to be so into the future.

“Helping people is the greatest gift
I get for doing what I love.”
