Integrative Medicine Series: Workshops and Webinars

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can be incredible tools for healthcare and wellbeing. But how does it work? What does the scientific evidence say? How can it be used alongside conventional medicine and other therapies? What does best practice look like? And how can we look after the health not just for ourselves, but for those of our families too?

Please join me and invited guest speakers as we share with you our experiences of working with specific health concerns and show you how a more integrative way of addressing our health works in practice!
