About Me

Robert Foerster
                    Lic.Ac. MAcS TCM. SMT.

Born to western medical parents, I enertained the idea of becoming a surgeon. I spent some time in China as a teenager to study anatomy, physiology and medical terminology at the university my father taught at.

 

That's when I met an acupuncturist, and martial arts mentor of mine, who once taught:

 

“Western medicine sees the body as a machine with parts to be altered with and ignored if symptoms aren't life threatening enough. Ancient Chinese medicine sees the body as a garden. When a plant is dry, it is watered, not replaced.”

 

After watching his patients' success, as well as having treated my life long acid reflux, I was inspired to learn Chinese medicine for its actuate healing process and technique.

 

Years later, I moved to the UK and graduated from the most prestigious college of acupuncture in the UK;

The College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, with a bachelor's degree in science and honours (BScH).

 

I am equipped with the knowledge and skills of the ancient doctors, their predecessors, and today's contemporary pioneers. I am proficiently trained in all modes of acupuncture and Chinese medicine to treat a variety of ailments. I am also a qualified sports massage therapist.

​

As a hobby I write science fiction, practice callisthenics, yoga/Pilates, and go on long hikes in the wilderness to meditate on the mysteries of the universe.
