The Asante Academy of Traditional Chinese MedicineI am a medical doctor who also practices western style acupuncture, and I had come to spend a day at the Asante Academy to further my knowledge of TCM.The Asante Academy of Tradition Chinese Medicine (TCM) is situated in a large modern premises on the first floor of a building in Highgate/Archway area of London.It is fashioned in an eclectic mixture of both modern and Chinese style.The clinic’s director is Professor Song Ke a well known doctor of TCM known to many medical physicians and a number of centres of medical excellence in the UK and the USA ,amongst others.I had arrived a little early and was invited by the staff to join them in their morning Tai Chi session..I knew of Tai Chi but had never practised it. Soon I was engaged in its beautiful movements which from a TCM perspective balances the Chi (energy) in your body, as explained to me by Dr Song ,one of the clinic’s senior therapists. He also gave me a short discourse on the basis of Chi in TCM, ably supported by his colleagues Ming and Jasmine.The staff at all times were gracious and welcoming.I sat in onProfessor Song Ke’s clinic observing his approach to patients who were clearly satisfied with his past treatment.He demonstrated to me the use of TCM in treating kidney disease and in patients who had complications of Covid, discussing nuances of treatment which can compliment conventional medical treatment.I also observed as 2 therapists under the guidance of a senior colleague assisting a patient with acupuncture , who was also receiving treatment from a conventional medical centre, to become pregnant.Asante Academy presents a professional ,knowledgeable and empathic patient centredEnvironment.For those contemplating treatment with TCM, this would be a most suitable clinic to begin.I am thinking of taking up Tai Chi regularly.Dr S L DexterGeneral Medical Practitioner

Chris has been fabulous- he takes such care to ensure he's working on the right parts of my back which is not easy when so much of it is tight! There's a reason I keep coming back week after week
Response from the owner: Sarah, thank you so much for your kind words and positive feedback on your experiences with Asante and our practitioners! We're pleased that your treatments are giving you the help you need. The Asante Team.
Last summer I completed the Asante Academy Certificate course in Chinese Herbal Medicine. Such an interesting discipline and so well taught by Dr Jun Shu! I really enjoyed the course, and also appreciated being able to observe patients being treated in clinic, prior to lockdown. It is rigorously planned and students cover a large amount of material. One of the best things about it is the flexibility ~I was able to study the days I wanted to, which really helped me fit it around work commitments. I would highly recommend this course for anyone interested in furthering their knowledge of TCM.
Response from the owner: Dear Roisin, thank you so much for your kind words and feedback on your experiences studying at Asante!

Asante Academy has a gentle atmosphere, kind and helpful people, and was convenient for me in North London. Chris worked with me on a poor digestive system. Possibly the main benefit was to be generally healthy - not bad for a 72-year-old!
Response from the owner: Thank you for your kind words and feedback Diana, it is most appreciated! We are pleased that you had a positive experience visiting Asante Academy.
Great treatment, very professional
