About Amanda
20 years of traditional Chinese medicine in Cambridge. Former lecturer, Gua Sha pioneer, and committed to plant-based healing.
A Journey in Healing
My path into Chinese medicine began over two decades ago, drawn by its holistic approach to health — treating the whole person, not just isolated symptoms.
From 2004 to 2011, I had the privilege of teaching at the London College of Traditional Acupuncture, where I trained future practitioners in the art and science of Chinese medicine. In 2006, I introduced Gua Sha to the curriculum, becoming one of the first to teach this powerful technique professionally in the UK.
Today, I bring that teaching expertise to every patient consultation. I believe in taking time to explain your diagnosis and treatment, empowering you to understand your own health journey.
I'm committed to ethical practice, using only plant-based, vegan-friendly herbs that are fully traceable. Every batch comes with Certificates of Analysis — you can trust what you're taking.
