Since childhood, Susan has been passionately interested in health and natural, safe effective ways for people to regain and maintain their health. After a long career in the world of business, she trained as an Acupuncturist in the Five Element style at The College of Traditional Acupuncture, Leamington Spa. After completing a three year Licentiate training, she set up in practice with her student provisional licence, whilst completing an internship working with a precise number of patient case studies and supervised clinical practice in the College's clinic for a six month period. She successfully completed her six month clinical practice period and graduated with a Licentiate in Acupuncture, Five Element style, in 1994, and with an even keener passion for Chinese Medicine. Upon completion of her first three years training, she immediately knew that in addition to being in general practice, she wanted to specialise in Women's Health issues, such as gynaecology, painful periods, heavy periods, menopausal problems, male and female infertility.
