Last November at an acupuncture conference, I was invited be part of a team of volunteer acupuncturists going to Myanmar in January. An opportunity which was difficult to refuse, so I am off from 9th January 2015 for a month!
Our team of acupuncturists  will be providing treatments to local people and training to local acupuncturists who have much less continuing professional development opportunities than we do here in the west.
The clinic runs out of a hospital in a large village on the banks of the mighty Irrawaddy river, near Mandalay.
Whilst I am away I am very happy to have Tom Hirons looking after my patients in Exeter.
This promises to be a very rewarding experience. I hope to bring home with me lots of inspiration which will enrichen my practice back in the UK.
If you would like to know more about the project there is a video here: http://vimeo.com/46611296 and a website:http://www.myanmaracupunctureproject.org/2/Welcome.html
With blessings for 2015,

Charlotte
