The Path to Chinese Medicine

People always ask Chris how he became interested in Chinese Medicine. After graduating with his Bachelor of Arts from King’s College at the University of Western Ontario he was unsure of the type of career he wanted to pursue. Over the years he became fascinated with Quantum Mechanics, which examines the physical phenomenon of energy and matter at the microscopic level. It didn’t take long to stumble upon some information concerning acupuncture. This was an ‘A-ha’ moment for Chris.

Immediately he was able to draw the link between Quantum Mechanics and the healing energy used by the body during acupuncture. How was it possible that Chinese healers have understood for 5000 years the relatively new science of Quantum Mechanics? His driving motivation for his career choice was the quote, ‘Do what you love for a living and you will never work another day in your life.’ Two months later he found himself in a class room learning about this ancient healing modality and hasn’t looked back since. He has always been fascinated with the mystery of the human body and ways to achieve a balanced, healthy life. For Chris the feeling of being able to heal another human being is truly one of the best there is and he never tires from it.
