Our Acupuncturist

Suthan Vijayaratnam is a fully qualified and registered Acupuncturist, having completed four years of study and practical experience.

A running injury  led to him attending a qualified acupuncturist for assessment and treatment. A positive experience and a curiosity  as to how and why acupuncture helped him led to  Suthan undertaking Chinese Medicine degree and ultimately a change in career path.

Suthan  is a firm believer in the  principle of prevention rather than cure.   Of course when a person attends with a pre-existing condition his aim is to assess, identify and resolve the condition as soon as possible as this will save the client time, money and avoid long-term pain  He has a special interest in the treatment of   neck and back pain as well as sports injuries.

As a hobby he enjoys  distance running  and has completed a number of half and full marathons. His sporting and life experience  has given him an understanding of the difficulty of balancing training load with other priorities in life, and  also the desire to want to continue to train  while managing niggling injuries. This makes Suthan’s approach to treatment  very personal, practical, effective and thorough.

Suthan is passionate about utilising latest research and methods as well as vast amount of knowledge in the rich 2,000 years plus history of Chinese Medicine. He looks forward to helping you achieve your goals ,
