About Gulshan
Hi… my name is Gulshan….I became a nutritionist / naturopath in 2009 and then completed a Bachelor of Science in Acupuncture followed by a Masters degree in Chinese herbal medicine. In 2013, I got to spend time observing clinical practice at the Wujin TCM Hospital in Changzhou, China. In the following three years, I worked at the well-known and highly respected Asante Academy of Chinese Medicine and the Whittington Hospital Pain and Maternity clinics treating hundreds of patients with a diverse range of health issues.
Through extensive clinical experience, I able to treat a wide-range of chronic conditions (i.e. autoimmune conditions, CFS, fibromyalgia, systemic Lupus, MS) and conditions like diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, digestive disorders and menstrual issues. I believe in keeping up with the latest research and developing my skills to meet patients’ needs.
I love what I do because…
It brings me closer to the heart of what it means to be human. The healing journey of the patient and my journey, both personal and professional, helps me understand and appreciate these ancient and ever powerful healing methods. That they can still be used today to alleviate health symptoms and modern-day stress is a marvel. The thought that this type of practice – however great or small, improves the lives of others gives me immense happiness and satisfaction. I feel honoured to be so privileged to benefit others in this way.
