I grew up in a rural part of Pennsylvania in the United Sates. I spent my adult life in New York City, Portland, Oregon and then Los Angeles. I loved city life but I couldn't be happier living in the magical countryside of Cornwall. I moved here in 2010 when the spark of a former romance rekindled and drew me here to see if "it could work for real this time". It did, we married and have a vibrant little girl, a chilled out staffy, loads of chickens, some ducks and lots outdoor space to grow things and get muddy in. Happy days. What I find compelling about acupuncture and Chinese medicine is how this medicine very gently creates powerful changes to restore health and a sense of wellbeing. It is wholistic. It’s based on the principle that we as individuals are not a collection of separate parts but a complex web of interrelated systems that includes the environment we live in and the relationships we have. The benefits of Chinese medicine are both physical and emotional.
