Kath Tuck Acupuncture

Kath initially qualified as a registered nurse in 1977. She subsequently worked as an Intensive Care nurse and Theatre Sister before becoming a Community District Nurse. In this role she became aware of the need for palliative care, which was just becoming recognised as a speciality in the field of medicine. She became interested in Acupuncture when working for a Hospice in Devon. During her work in palliative care for the terminally ill, she found that patients received a great deal of energy from acupuncture, and this had quantatively changed the quality of their life during their illness.
