About Jack

Jack began his journey into Shiatsu and East Asian therapies in 2017, when he received a Shiatsu treatment from the Australian Shiatsu College to help manage the effects of chemotherapy during treatment for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. This deeply healing experience inspired him to pursue Shiatsu himself.

After completing his qualifications in Shiatsu & Oriental Therapies in 2020, Jack began practicing at the Chinese Medicine clinic Natural Wellness Albert Park, where he honed his skills and developed his niche.

He later connected with Acufitz in Fitzroy, a community acupuncture clinic run by Dr. Jinan Cai, where he learned to apply Dr. Tan’s acupuncture techniques through the lens of Shiatsu.

In 2024, Jack began practicing at his local yoga studio Yogareal, working traditionally on a futon. He continues to practice there today while undertaking ongoing study in Chinese Medicine.

Jack regularly participates in professional development across both Shiatsu and movement therapies. This includes Movement Shiatsu (2020) with Bill Palmer and Sotai training with Paul Mostavvin (2024).

He also maintains an ongoing teaching and practice in Raja Yoga under Robert Byrne, Ziran Qigong under Andrew Chambers, and a dedicated Vipassana practice as taught by S. N. Goenka, with over 70 days completed in silent meditation retreats.
