Ineke van der Ham is an experienced acupuncturist and herbalist with over thirty years of experience in healthcare, specializing in women's health and dermatology. She began her career in physiotherapy and manual therapy, where she developed expertise in movement and pain management. After her involvement in international elite sports, she discovered the power of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and has since focused her practice on restoring balance in the body through acupuncture, herbal treatments, and other traditional Chinese therapies.
Ineke has been profoundly influenced by her studies with Dr. Wang Ju yi, whose teachings shaped her understanding of the meridian system and her clinical approach. Her mentor, Sharon Weizenbaum, further inspired her with a holistic approach to women's health, which she now integrates into her clinical practice and teaching. As one of the founders of the Qing Bai School and an instructor in the Women’s Great Turning Acupuncture Course, Ineke plays an active role in teaching and passing on her knowledge to the next generation of practitioners.
