Beijing Clinic

I have been using the Beijing Clinic for about ten years now. I first visited after reading an article that said that Dr. Tang was a specialist in back problems. I had been suffering from a trapped nerve for many years and various chiropractors had told me that the nerve was dead. However, Dr. Tang revived it with a combination of acupuncture and massage. Since then he has treated both myself and several friends that I had recommended to use his services with excellent results

I have been helped over the years, many times, by Dr Tang. Recently I have had acupuncture, cupping, massage and herbs, which have gradually removed the excruciating pain of an attack of shingles, and have helped with other associated problems. Some problems are complex and take time to heal, so one needs to have patience and a positive frame of mind. In the past I have had difficult problems for which I have had to resort to conventional medicine, but in this case I have found relief and help in a way which is not offered under the NHS. We are so used to having our treatment 'free' under the NHS, that we feel that private treatment of any kind is very expensive. However, no one in the NHS is able to give the time, attention and personal support which we can receive through Chinese and other forms of complementary therapy. My own GP, indeed, is happy for me to use acupuncture, he has observed operations carried out using acupuncture, successfully, as an alternative to anaesthesia.

I had the misfortune of visiting this clinic, only to be disappointed with the treatment. I spent best part of £200 on two treatments only to be told that by Dr Tang that there is no guarantee his treatment will work. He wanted me to try 5 to 6 sessions with no guarantee that my lower abs pain will be any better not to mention over £500 I would have spent in the process of finding this out. The alternative medicine industry should be regulated as I believe the practitioners seem to be in the habit of fleecing you as I also found this out with a Chiropractor.
