Traditional Chinese Medicine originated in China 5000 years ago and formed the basic theory YIN YANG and WU XING (5 elements). It still provides about half of medical treatment in China today. During past 60 years TCM has greatly developed and has modernised in recent years. People in the UK became more aware of the effectiveness of TCM, as its advantages include being natural and safe with fewer side effects.
The principle of TCM is to balance the functions of the body holistically; not only focusing on the symptoms but also on the solutions of the problems by strengthening the patient's own immune system. The pathogen is expelled, the circulation of blood and the function of the organs are greatly enhanced, and health is regained.

Dr li is a very professional, personable Dr . I went to her after traditional methods had left me without a resolution to my issues , having tried cognative therapies as well I was at a loss and this condition was impacting on my life and career prospects . The course of therapy prescribed by Dr Li was explained to me continuously , she also treated me for other issues I was not so aware of, the outcome for me was quite overwhelming , I had descibed how I felt to a friend as 'I feel as though I am the person again that I thought I had left behind 4 years ago.
I would highly recommended this course

I started seeing Carol in June of this year as I was struggling to become pregnant. We had been advised by medical staff that I would need to have IVF, but as I did not qualify for this on the NHS, we were at a complete loss. I thought my chances of becoming a mum were zero! We were recommended acupuncture and started to research clinics close to us. We came across Natural Health Clinic and I sent a message to Carol. We started treatment immediately in June, attending weekly sessions and continuing to take the herbal medicine prescribed. By the end of August, only after 2 cycles, I became pregnant

I had a very good experience. I approached Dr Li to help me get pregnant as my husband and I were trying for almost 3 years. She was very understanding and easy to talk to. I started treatment and immediately felt positive effect feeling better and stress free. I made the decision to try ivf but I continued my acupuncture therapy with Dr Li, which contributed to the success of the treatment and now we are expecting our baby. I would recommend the clinic to anyone. One of the best decisions I've ever made.

I have endured many work (and sport) related injuries over the years but nothing like this time! After over a year of pain caused by a classic L5 S1 herniated disc (Slipped disc) confirmed by MR1 scan, I had a nerve root block procedure performed in hospital. This gave temporary relief but the pain returned worse than ever a few weeks later. I was suffering so badly I could hardly walk more than a few steps and the pain was unbearable. I had read that Traditional Chinese Medicine and acupuncture could help this type of injury but not liking the thought of needles being used, I had dismissed it
