The Practitioners

 

Alex and James first met at Middlesex University in 2000, while studying Traditional Chinese Medicine. Upon graduation they were both invited to join the teaching staff at Asante Academy, Middlesex University's Chinese Medicine training clinic.

In 2006 they set up a maternity acupuncture service at Whittington NHS Trust hospital. This was the first service to be established of its size and scope in the UK and is still running today, seeing in excess of 150 patients every month.

With the success of this service Alex & James were inspired to continue to offer the benefits of acupuncture to all aspects of the community. The Open Space Acupuncture Clinic offers acupuncture in a multi-bed setting, allowing the price of treatments to be greatly reduced, opening the benefits of acupuncture and Chinese medicine up to the whole of the community.
