Tutor Alex Brazkiewicz, Holos Healthcare
Alex's passion for integrating Chinese and Western medicine stems from almost 35 years training in Japanese Martial Arts, philosophy and studying Namikoshi Shiatsu at Elite Martial Academy.
In 2007, Alex qualified from the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine (CICM), Reading with a 1st Class BSc (Hons) in Traditional Acupuncture, and subsequently completed his postgraduate diploma in Tuina Chinese Massage and Medical QiGong in 2009. Alex subsequently became a volunteer at the NHS Gateway Clinic in London and went on to study Applied Channel Theory with Prof Wang Ju Yi in China and Europe between 2009 and 2013 and then qualified as an osteopath in 2020. He currently splits his time treating patients at his clinic in Malvern (where he integrates Chinese and Western biomedicine) and teaching First Aid..

The course is limited to 12 attendees to enable maximum use of practical time and individual feedback.
This course will be run as a blended learning course: so you will need to complete an online component (in the 6 weeks before the practical day) and a half day practical - in the morning (9 30am to 1pm).
