Who I am

I have practiced traditional Chinese medicine for 20 years applying the various methods such as acupuncture, acupressure, cupping, phytotherapy, diet therapy and taichi for both prevention and treatment of various ailments, especially chronic pain, gastrointestinal and gynecological disorders.

After completing a 5-year degree program with more than 800 hours of clinical practice at the private Asante Institute in London and more than 400 hours at the department specializing in the treatment of chronic pain at Archway Hospital in London, I also completed a 6-month internship at two Beijing hospitals, Xi Yuan and Zhong Ri.

During the past few years, I have worked in a Chinese medicine center in Ballina, Northern Ireland where I was able to deal with different clinical and cultural frameworks.

Since 2009 years I have been practicing in Canton Ticino at a gynecology practice. 

Based on the integrated study of allopathic and Chinese medicine and my clinical experience, I aim to expand the Eastern medical tradition in a Western context, ensuring individualized treatment.
