About Us

Ian originates from the West Coast of Scotland, moving to London in 1991 to train as a Registered Nurse. Ian lived and worked in London for 6 years before embarking on a year long trip to Australia. Ian travelled around Australia working as a nurse in remote areas as well as the cities until deciding to settle in Perth. Shortly after arriving in Perth, Ian became ill with Chronic Fatigue due to a viral throat infection. Ian sought out Chinese Medicine after many ineffectual attempts by Western Medicine to improve his health. During his recovery, Ian came to understand the effectiveness of the Chinese system of health care. Feeling frustrated by Ian's perceived limitations of Western Medicine to truly help the patients he looked after in hospital, he decided to train in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Ian trained for three years at the Perth Academy of Natural Therapies, graduating with an Advanced Diploma of Traditional Chinese Medicine. On conclusion of the course, Ian was offered the opportunity to work with and learn from a well respected, experienced practitioner of Chinese Medicine.
