About Me

From Wonder to Wisdom: A Path of Healing, Transformation and Spirit

I believe there are many roads that lead to health and wealth , and that all of them are valid. It just happens that mine is built on the ancient wisdom of the Tao. 

Many people ask me why I chose traditional Chinese medicine and healing arts. I guess of all the paths, this one spoke to me in a way that it made perfect sense. It is the path that still holds endless mysteries and still fascinates me as it did the first day I discovered it, many years ago.

The Spark of Destiny

I was only eight years old when I stumbled upon a book on Chinese acupuncture in my father’s reading room. The diagrams of meridians, needles, and Qi stirred something ancient inside me. It wasn’t just fascination—it was recognition. I couldn’t have named it then, but I now understand it was a soul memory: a calling into the healing arts of the East.

The Turning Point

Years later, I met Anthony, a British Armed Forces Veteran who was to become my SoulMate and partner in Life. With him came a leap of faith. I left behind the safety of a university career in Transylvania and began a new life in the UK. It was daunting, yes—but it was also the doorway through which my true Purpose would reveal itself. Moving to the UK with him has turned out to be the most challenging and rewarding decisions I had ever made.

Sacred Studies & Clinical Wisdom

I trained for over two years at Shulan College of Chinese Medicine in Manchester, including over 300 clinical hours in Acupuncture and TuiNa massage. I complemented my foundation with diplomas in Chinese Nutrition, Life Coaching, Crystal Therapy, and a deep immersion into Mindfulness, Tai Chi, Qigong and Traditional Yang Sheng (nourishing life).

But training was never just about certificates. It was about remembering who I truly was and preparing to serve others in the most holistic way possible.

The Body as Portal, the Spirit as Compass

I became a Tai Chi and Qigong instructor, guiding people into their own internal harmony. These practices, deeply rooted in Daoist wisdom, became not just a profession, but a way of life, thanks to Shifu Michael Rinaldini and his teachings.

When the pandemic shifted the world, it also deepened my own spiritual alchemy. I turned inward—and discovered the metaphysical tools that would redefine my practice: BaZi Destiny Analysis, and the profound mystery of the Yì Jīng (Book of Changes).

A Sanctuary Is Born

In 2015, I founded Purple Jade Holistics—a space where science meets spirit, where ancient wisdom is made practical for the 21st-century soul.

My work blends:

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine for physical balance,
  • Chinese Astrology and the Yì Jīng for insight and clarity,
  • And gentle guidance through seasonal, emotional, and energetic cycles.

Each client receives a truly integrated path of healing, with tools tailored to body, mind and spirit.

In Service of the Brave

As a proud signatory of the Armed Forces Covenant, I honour and support veterans and active members of the armed services. My work with this community holds a special place in my heart.

Many of my clients are carers, protectors, and professionals navigating immense responsibility. They find solace and renewal through the practices I offer. This is the testimonial of Maria, a cardiology nurse:

Daciana isn’t just a practitioner—she’s like a spiritual Google with a soul 😄
But instead of ads, she offers insights that spark real transformation.

🌱 Feeling lost or in pain? She helps you understand the root and gently guides you toward healing.
🔮 Unsure of your gifts? She sees them clearly—even if you’re only just beginning to unwrap them.
🧭 Drowning in ideas? She brings calm, focus, and direction: “Here’s your path. Walk it.”
💸 Want abundance without burnout? She shows you how to create success with joy and meaning.
🌀 Wondering what your purpose is? She has an uncanny ability to reflect it back—yet still honours your freedom to choose.

What sets her apart? She doesn’t hand you answers. She asks the kind of questions that awaken your truth.
She’ll ground you when needed—but never dim your light or clip your wings

With Daciana, you’re not just a person with problems. You’re a soul with potential.
She’s here to help you switch on your inner light… but the choice to shine is yours.

I’m deeply grateful to her—for walking beside me through my beautifully chaotic journey 🌈
At times she struck sensitive chords, yes… but now I see: without them, the music wouldn’t be half as sweet.

5 stars? 5 daisies? I’d give her galaxies 💫

Whether you arrive at my door with anxiety, fatigue, a health condition, or a sense of spiritual disconnection, I meet you where you are. Together, we listen—to your body, your chart, your soul—and begin weaving wholeness back into your life.

Because healing isn’t a straight line. It’s a spiral path. And I’m honoured to walk it beside you.
