Welcome, my name is David Lees, thank you for visiting my website.
I hope you enjoy reading about my experiences, philosophies and thoughts gained from the day to day work in my unique practice as a Traditional Chinese Medicine (T.C.M.) acupuncturist and counsellor who teaches, practices and broadcasts about the Chinese philosophy of Taoism and meditation, here in the U.K.
It seems to be well accepted now that Chinese Medicine can be very helpful with muscular and physical pain. As the medicine becomes more established in the U.K. the full extent of acupuncture and Chinese herbs are being used to treat many more complex physical and clinical problems. What is not so well known or practiced is the use of Chinese Medicine and meditation to help with emotional problems.
I am very interested in exploring how Traditional Chinese Medicine (Acupuncture, Herbs, Tu’ina Massage, Qi Gong), along with counselling, meditation and the Taoist philosophy can be used in harmony to assist with stress, depression, anxiety and other deep emotional and psychological problems.
These weekly posts will hopefully form the basis of my current book, where I will try and explain my understanding of Taoism more fully and make the philosophy accessible for everyone.
This website is definitely ’work in progress’ and I am constantly editing and updating the posts, so your thoughts or comments would be very much appreciated.

I have recently moved house and now live in the beautiful market town of Wirksworth in the Derbyshire Dales (hence the break in postings)
