This is my news page for present and prospective patients

I have now been treating lots of Patients with my Cosmetic Acupuncture, including one man. Even the abdominal Cosmetic Acupuncture is working well. I am now working on protocols for the buttocks and thighs.

Have a look at the Cosmetic Acupuncture pages for my new before and after photos. If this is not proof, then what is?!

I am now the only Acupuncturist in the UK to be qualified in the Mei Zen system of Cosmetic Acupuncture so I am pleased. This may give me an 'edge' on all the dreadful herb clinics that are sprouting up all over the place. Some of them don't even speak English! How can a patient tell if they are qualified? One of the herb clinics closed down this month, I am pleased.

I have now finished my Bsc (Hons) degree in Acupuncture studies. I went to the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine in Reading.  I passed with a 2.2 but came away with a very bad feeling. The College deliberately misquoted my dissertation so that they could mark it down. I ended up making a complaint to Kingston University. Because I choose not to join the British Acupuncture Council and have joined the much better Complementary Medical Association, the College is run by BAcC. members, they joined together to try to discredit my studies. This was a real eye opener and has made me see just how much 'politics' there are in the Acupuncture world. I have just found out that Acupuncture is to be regulated as 'a profession ancillary to medicine'. This is a good thing and one in the eye for the BAcC!

I did my research on the subject of Dental Acupuncture which was very interesting. I recently went to the British Dental Acupuncture Society in London to do a one hour presentation on the subject of giving up smoking with Acupuncture. It was very well received and I hope to be working closely with them in the future.

As for my garden. The steps are finished, I am now putting in the garden lighting and building a Mediterranean seat at the back of the house.

Bye from Kim
