Nik Tilling

Acupuncture practitioner
I qualified as an acupuncturist in 1999 and completed a post-graduate clinical training in China which involved working full-time in a state hospital. This gave me my first experience of practicing acupuncture in a multi-bed setting. This was followed by a period working at the Gateway Clinic, an NHS-funded multi-bed acupuncture practice at Lambeth Hospital which specialises in the treatment of HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C. I have further NHS experience working at the Pain Clinic in Cheltenham Hospital. I co-founded the Dragon Project in 2003 with Calum. I am particularly interested in the treatment of musculo-skeletal conditions with acupuncture. I recently qualified in Chinese Herbal Patent Medicine too.
