A first for the UK: oncology acupuncture training taught by the people who do this work every day.

NCIO’s new CPD programme, Acupuncture in Breast Cancer Support, opens for Cohort 1 this September. It is built for UK-registered TCM acupuncturists who want to work safely and confidently with people affected by breast cancer, whether they are stepping into this work for the first time or already seeing these patients and wanting a firmer clinical foundation.

People affected by breast cancer are living longer, and living longer with what treatment leaves behind: joint pain from aromatase inhibitors, chemotherapy-induced neuropathy, hot flushes, fatigue, post-surgical pain, disrupted sleep. Acupuncture has a real evidence base in several of these areas. What the UK is missing is a trained workforce that works effectively within the extended multidisciplinary team.

Course faculty
Dr Angela Lorbeck (DACM, MSTOM, MPH, LAc, FMCHC), Lead Faculty. Oncology Acupuncturist at RUSH MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Rush Medical College, Rush University. She built the first hospital-based oncology acupuncture programme in Rush’s history, now spanning more than 20,000 treatments, and created its clinical training programme, now in its fifteenth cohort.

Mr Damian Allegretti, UK Faculty and Clinical Lead, Acupuncture Clinical Supervisor at the Northern College of Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine Practitioner at Synthesis Clinic.

Dr Nina Fuller-Shavel and Dr Lauren Watts, integrative oncology physicians, delivering the Western medical foundation.

What is included
Three pre-recorded postgraduate modules, three live Q&A sessions with the faculty, and three days of small-group supervised clinical practice at Synthesis Clinic near Reading on 15 to 17 September. Assessed by a case-based written assignment with written feedback, with certificates issued at the end of January 2027.

I’m incredibly honoured to be part of the NCIO Conference this September at The University of Oxford the Mathematical Institute, University of Oxford. It will be a privilege to contribute alongside such an inspiring group of colleagues and to speak about the role of Chinese medicine in integrative oncology.

A huge thank you to Nina Fuller-Shavel and the National Centre for Integrative Oncology (NCIO) team for the opportunity. Looking forward to a fantastic event!

Another TuiNa course comes to an end, and I couldn’t have asked for a better group to share the journey with.

Teaching is always a two-way process, and this group brought so much curiosity, generosity, humour and genuine enthusiasm. Thank you all for creating such a supportive space to learn, practise and grow together.

I’m also incredibly grateful for the thoughtful gifts, the beautiful plant, the card full of kind words, and for welcoming Moxi into my tea sessions.

Congratulations to everyone on completing the course. I can’t wait to see where your TuiNa journeys take you.

And... if you’ve ever thought about learning TuiNa, the next course starts this September 26th.
I look forward to meeting another wonderful group.

Just wrapped up teaching a full weekend of TuiNa as part of the 2025/2026 Tuina Diploma – and I’m feeling so grateful and energised!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined for your incredible energy, attention, and trust. It’s always inspiring to share this beautiful medicine with such dedicated practitioners.

🚀 Next Tuina Diploma starts this March, and there are only a few spots left for this in-depth, highly personalised course. If you’ve been thinking about deepening your skills and immersing yourself in TuiNa, now’s the time!

I’m incredibly honoured to share that my article has been published in the Journal of Chinese Medicine!

This wouldn’t have happened without the encouragement of my wonderful patients at Royal National Othopaedic Hospital for The Disability Foundation who inspired me to write after seeing the positive outcomes we were achieving together following knee and hip surgeries. Your trust and feedback truly sparked this piece.

A big thank you to Daniel Maxwell for his generous editing, insight, and support throughout the process—your guidance made this possible.

Grateful for this opportunity and for the amazing people I get to work with every day! 🙏
