Min Li<\/p>\n

Bachelor Degree of Acupuncture (China)
\nMember of NZ Acupuncture Standard Authority (NZ)
\n5 Years full time training in Medical University in China
\n15 years clinical experience
\nACC treatment provider<\/p>\n<\/div>

Min graduated with a Bachelor\u2019s Degree of Acupuncture from the Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2004. After graduation, she worked as an acupuncture and Chinese medicine doctor for the next ten years at the Life Infinity Medical Centre in Guangzhou.
\nWith a decision to change her life, she emigrated to New Zealand in 2014, and she ended up in Levin where she started up her own practice, The i Sport Deep Tissue Rebuild Acupuncture Clinic.<\/p>\n

Levin is a small community that had not been exposed to the benefits of acupuncture. In the following four years, she was able to treat a large number of patients. Her treaments open their eyes and mind as to how acupuncture may assist with the relief of their acute or chronic pain. Then, she began to learn that acupuncture doesn\u2019t only heal pain, but it can also increase one\u2019s self-esteem. People soon realise that they shouldn\u2019t need to continually suffer in pain. Now she has shifted to Christchurch to live with her husband. She is working alongside Patrick at the Christchurch Acupuncture Centre.<\/p>\n

She has always been passionate about acupuncture. With over 14 years of clinical experience behind her, she can still proudly say that she has treated all of her clients with the utmost of care, respect and empathy.<\/p>\n

All of her treatments are performed to the very best of her ability, and she is always striving to better herself in order to assist her patients.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
