As long as I can remember, I have been fascinated about Oriental Medicine and how natural healing works.

I am half British and half Finnish, brought up in rural Finland and was introduced to Chinese Medicine from a young age.

My mother used to travel to China regularily due to her work and bring back home different remedies and tinctures. She also practices Tibetan Rites (5 sacred movement) every morning and swims daily.

I have learned the natural way of staying healthy from her and was alwasy hoping to learn the art of acupuncture.

Life took me through a career in Branding into another career in Taoist Yoga (yin yoga) and facilitating trainings in the field for over a decade.

In 2015 it was finally time to embark on the life long learning journey of Acupuncture.

I studied a professional course in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine between 2016 and 2018.

This foundation gave me the basic skills and insurance to practice acupuncture, dry, cupping and gua sha

As I am always looking to learn more, I begun the 3,5 year Licentiate (Bachelors of Science equivalent) degree in Five Element Acupuncture. Five Element Acupuncture looks at both the physical and the psychological manifestations of illness. This was especially interesting due to my other interest in Psychology (which I studied a degree on between 2017-2020).

I graduated from the BAaC (British Acupuncture Council) accredited degree course in March 2024.
