After arriving in England, I worked at the Gastro-Intestinal unit, ENT as well as at the ICU in St. Mary’s hospital (now Imperial College Medical school) in London. After seeing many of my patients with chronic conditions that were not improving I wanted to find an alternative approach to the Western approach of medication and injections that would have fewer side-effects and was more natural.
