Martin's first interest in holistic medicine was ignited through a stay with monks in a Buddhist monastery. It was here that he realised holistic medicine to be an integral part of life and that health is far more encompassing than only the condition of one's body. With this vision in mind, Martin has since extensively studied Eastern medicine in Taiwan, China and the UK. He is a fully qualified practitioner of acupuncture, having completed a four-year BSc Hons Acupuncture degree in the UK in combination with several years of previous study and experience in the field of holistic medicine. In addition, Martin has recently completed a certificated clinical internship at the Shanghai Acupuncture Research Institute, China.

Martin is also one of the first practitioners to introduce sensation-free multi-laser acupuncture, a system that uses focused but gentle light to stimulate the body's own healing system. In this way, this new and effective therapy is suitable for those that are less inclined towards the traditional metal acupuncture needle. Martin is currently the only practitioner in the UK to have studied this system with world renowned doctors using this new technique in Zurich, Switzerland. Martin has been awarded membership to the British Acupuncture Council, The Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine, The Federation of Holistic Therapists and European Federation of Modern Acupuncture and continues to develop his knowledge for the benefit of his patients.
