Biography

Martin Logue is a graduate of both the Western Herbal Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) BSc (Hons) degrees at Middlesex University. The Western Herbal Medicine course was the first of its kind in the world and involved four years of academic study. As part of his course Martin spent two years in clinical training at The Archway Clinic of Herbal Medicine within the Whittington Hospital in North London. Once he graduated and joined the National Institute of Medical Herbalists Martin was awarded the Ernest Cockayne prize for the Brightest Character.

Martin then continued his studies on the 5 year Traditional Chinese Medicine degree course. This involved an in-depth study of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in the treatment of disease. His clinical training was completed at The Asante Clinic of Chinese Medicine and The Pain Clinic at the Whittington Hospital over two years. Martin also completed rotations in Cardiology, Dermatology, Neurology, Paediatrics, and on Respiratory and Gynaecology wards at the Xiyuan and Sino-Japanese hospitals in Beijing. This qualified him to receive a Bachelor of Chinese Medicine from Beijing University.

Since qualifying Martin has completed training in Japanese style Acupuncture with Stephen Birch and Kiiko Matsumoto.

He has worked, amongst other places, at the Church St GP practise in North London, and the Core Trust, Paddington. He now practises at his own clinics in Hertfordshire, Enfield and London.

Martin is a member of the National Institute of Herbal Medicine (NIMH), the Register of Chinese Medicine (RCHM) and the Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ATCM). He is also a member of the NHS Directory of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners. All of these organisations require their members to be fully qualified and insured.

Martin is actively involved in several research projects and he teaches and lectures regularly on Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine to students within Ireland and the UK. He has appeared as a guest on the BBC Radio 4 programme “Outlook” and he features regularly on the Justin Deeley Show on BBC 3 Counties Radio.
