Tony Brawn MA, BAc, MBAcC
I’ve always been an acupuncturist. At least that’s what it feels like
- in fact I did an English degree at Cambridge before taking the giant
sideways step into the strange but fascinating world that was
acupuncture in the mid-1970s.
I trained in the Five Element style at the College of Traditional
Acupuncture, and qualified (LicAc) in 1979, then went on to take the
BAc in 1982. Since then I’ve trained in TCM acupuncture (the modern
mainstream Chinese style) and in several Japanese styles.
What I use now is a flexible approach, drawing on everything I’ve
learned over the last 30 years. It’s very practical, and I’ll use
whatever works - the aim is to get you better, after all - but as I go
on my practice seems to become more traditional, not less. Sometimes
the old ways really are the best!
Each session takes an hour and costs £30, except for the first one
which takes an hour and a half and costs £35.
I am a member (MBAcC) of the British Acupuncture Council, and observe
the Code of Conduct and Code of Safe Practice. The BAcC website
(www.acupuncture.org.uk) has more information about acupuncture.
I am in regular supervision to ensure that the quality and integrity of
my work is maintained, and I’ve been a dedicated practitioner of qigong
since 1990.
