A traditional Chinese medicine expert has been cleared of groping a female patient's breasts.
She was being treated for backache with massages and reflexology at the Natural Health Centre, Old Brompton Road, South Kensington.
Dr. Hui Li, 54, had taken over the £40-an-hour sessions, where the woman, aged in her thirties, sought help for a protruding disc.
Li said the woman made up the allegations after receiving an "accupressure" massage between the breasts and a head massage.
The clinic's manager told the Isleworth Crown Court jury Li also administers acupuncture and prescribes Chinese remedies.
He said the defendant has little command of english and UK customs and does tell women they are "beautiful" in an attempt to develop "rapport."
Li, of Valiant House, Plevna Street, Docklands was found not guilty of one count of sexual assault on April 11, 2014.
