Jason acupuncturist has a strong family tradition, his family practice of Traditional Chiese Medicine (TCM) is now in the three generation. Both Jason's grandfather and father were herbalists and acupuncturists. Jason's grandfather was very famous in Kuching Malasia.

 Jason has learned in a traditional way as an apprentice in his father's clinic for 5 years before came to NZ in 1998. His passion is to help people's health.  

 With Jason's skills acquired over 20 years. He is specialized in combining acupuncture with some use of herbs into food, he also uses formula herbs (raw plant-based herbs, herb granules, and ready-made pills) to assist treatments.   

AA is originated in China and brought over to the West by Dave Shipsey, it has a comprehensive holographic view (in a turtle image) of the human body in the abdominal meridian system (AMS). AMS holds the traditional view that human's digestive systems also contain wisdom, compassion and root energy.  Modern research also confirmed it produces serotonin, influences stress, insomnia, and immunity.

Jason has been practicing AA style for 2 years. It helps balance the energy, harmonise the 3 sections of the human body and mind holistically.

KAMPO  is a practice of  Chinese herbs assisted by FUKU SHIN (Japanese abdominal palpation腹诊) diagnosis:

• Use Classical Chinese Formulas
• Small Formulas (3-8 herbs)
• Granulated Herbs
• Small Dosages (3g Twice daily) 
• No Reboiling of Herbs: Herbs are authentic and high quality, and processed and boiled together in  ancient methods
• Matching patients' sho (presentation 证) to formula sho
• Frequent re-evaluation of the patient (5-7 days)
• Not intended to be long-term supplement uses

Kampo medicine is revived (after 1930s) and recognised in modern-day Japan (practiced by 90% Japanese western doctors) for its merits in helping patients' recovery from their illness - it deals with the human rather than the disease.

Jason sees Kampo may play an increasingly important role in helping people with digestive, aging, or gynecological issues.

Jason has completed the level one certificate of ZSAD, this world-known holographic acupuncture system that has integrated the authentic or classical aspects of TCM acupuncture with the advanced modern understanding of brain anatomy and functional zoning (1). It has a promising outcome in Prof. Zhu's 50 years practice for speedy stroke recovery (about 100% if ASAP intervention within 3 days of a  thrombotic stroke)
