Andrea offers acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine in Chiswick, having worked as a health therapist in West London for over 20 years. She has developed a highly dynamic system for treating medical conditions by combining several therapies synergistically. Andrea aims to understand and correct the root cause of the problem, as well as relieve any symptoms.
Acupuncture, Auricular Acupuncture, Reflexology, Vertical Reflex Therapy (VRT) and Prickling Neurostimulation Technique (PNST) work powerfully together to restore energetic flow and improve overall vitality and well-being.
Andrea’s interest in complementary therapies dates to her teenage years giving reflexology treatments to friends and family and developed further during her travels to Asia. She studied and qualified as a reflexologist at the International Federation of Reflexologists (IFR) and holistic massage ITEC in1998. Subsequently, she went on to achieve a 1st class BSc: Traditional Chinese Medicine (acupuncture) from the University of Westminster in 2005. She continues studying and attending CPDs adding many useful techniques to her knowledge.
Andrea integrates Dr. Klinghart’s Autonomic Response Testing (ART) into meridian work and other energy techniques. ART assesses the coherence of light frequencies/qi emitted from the body via subtle changes in muscle strength, to aid diagnosis and establish rebalancing antidotes.
Andrea is a keen meditator and interested in shamanic healing, plant spirit medicine and the spiritual nature of healing on all five levels - physical, emotional, mental, intuitive, spiritual. She is perceptive and empathetic and has broad knowledge around natural healing, nutrition and exercise.
