She has been working in healthcare since 1988, practicing Chinese medicine for 20 years and has worked in Australia, UK and in the USA for 14 years. During this time Karen studied Contemporary Chinese Pulse Diagnosis (CCPD) for 12 years under master practitioner Leon Hammer, MD, Chinese herbal medicine with Andrew Gamble, and sat workshops with Lonny Jarret and Jeffrey Yuen. She also received extensive training in osteopathic manual medicine techniques that have their origins in the USA and are not commonly practiced in Australia.
Karen has completed research in several areas including a 12-month clinical trial, Traditional Chinese Medicine and People Living with HIV/AIDS, A Quality of Life Study and recently her doctoral studies evaluated the reliability of practitioners to apply pulse diagnosis clinically, Investigating the reliability of Contemporary Chinese Pulse Diagnosis (CCPD) as a diagnostic tool in Oriental medicine.
Karen has coauthored a book on pulse diagnosis Handbook of Contemporary Chinese Pulse Diagnosis, presented at conferences in the USA, Australia and New Zealand, published articles in peer review journals, and is one of 14 worldwide instructors certified by Dragon Rises Seminars to teach CCPD.
For 10 years Karen was clinical director of a busy clinic in New York City that specialised in integrating eastern and western medical treatment paradigms. Where western medical intervention was beyond the scope of her practice Karen worked closely with her patients’ physicians to integrate their medical care with that of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. This resulted in better treatment outcomes, often saw the reduction of medication dosages and an associated improvement in quality of life. This was achieved across a range of medical specialties including psychiatry, respiratory, fertility, immunological, gastroenterology and cardiology.
Karen firmly believes a combination of western and Oriental medicine stands to offer us optimal health care outcomes. She currently continues her teaching, writing and clinical practice in Sydney.

About: “Fannie is a mature practitioner with the grace of a life finally devoted to what she cares about… She brings a living experience of the ways in which acupuncture can restore you to a sense of bodily well-being that you have either forgotten or never known was possible.” – Teri T.
Fannie’s passion for Eastern medicine can be traced back to her roots as a third-generation Chinese immigrant in the Philippines, where she grew up surrounded by food infused with herbal medicine thanks to her mother and grandmothers. She has spent a lifetime integrating the best of Eastern and Western cultures, and finally discovered that Chinese medicine provided a perfect home for her inquisitive mind and free spirit.
Fannie specializes in the areas of acute and chronic myofascial pain conditions, women’s health (including fertility), and anxiety disorders. She has a strong interest in food cures and the topical use of Chinese herbs, which is evident in the prominent role of nutrition counseling in her practice and the creation of her own line of tendon and trauma liniments.

Business Name: Destin Radder, Licensed Acupuncturist, PLLC
About: I am a licensed acupuncturist and herbalist in New York State and California (L.Ac.). I am also a nationally certified diplomate of acupuncture (Dipl. Ac.).
I attended Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California, a renowned four-year Traditional Chinese Medicine school and graduated with a Masters in Traditional Chinese Medicine (MTCM). Several years later I returned to Five Branches University as a professor to teach the fourth year review and California Board preparatory class. I am a board certified acupuncturist who specializes in pain management, women’s health and chronic health issues.
I take a special interest in pain management given my extensive experience in various sporting events. I was a competitive gymnast for ten years, played soccer and baseball for eight years, played high school football for four years, and competed in tennis, swimming and even a sport called European Team Handball. In high school and colleg I also studied Eight Step Praying Mantis Kung Fu for several years. As a result of these activities, I have experienced my share of sprains, strains, twists and falls and found that Chinese Medicine offered the best treatment for my sports-related injuries and ongoing pain.
In my professional and personal life, women’s health and fertility have played a prominent role. In addition to treating patients with obstetric and gynecological issues I was inspired to learn more about the Chinese Medical treatments for infertility when my wife and I were trying to conceive. I worked closely with a professor of mine, Dr. Wallace Li, who s a Traditional Chinese Medicine fertility specialist. He helped balance my wife's hormonal levels and encourage conception. He also oversaw my treatment of my wife throughout her pregnancy. I found that the methods I was taught to support a single pregnancy was much different then the needs of a woman carrying twins. Taking care of my wife and twins required a great amount of research and investigation.
To our delight the twins were born full term and required no special care post delivery. Now with infant twins I use my training to help with common illnesses, fevers, bowel issues, teething, and much more (x2).
Prior to completing my Master’s Degree in Chinese Medicine, I participated in numerous international Western medical research projects. I assisted with research expeditions in the Nepal Himalaya and Peruvian Andes that studied Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). While investigating the causes and the possible prevention of AMS I saw the benefits of using alternative medicine in conjunction with standard Western medical treatment. Now I look forward to working with Western doctors to achieve the best possible patient care.
