Hi, I'm Si Hwan Jin. Most patients just call me Jin.

I'm an AHPRA-registered acupuncturist and Chinese herbal medicine practitioner, and a member of the AACMA. My clinical approach is grounded in SAAM acupuncture, a Korean five-element style that treats based on individual constitution rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol.

My path here wasn't straightforward. I studied bioengineering systems engineering at the University of Melbourne, then moved into finance. It was during that period that my health started to deteriorate. Conventional medicine didn't have much to offer. Herbal medicine did. That was enough to change my direction completely.

What I find most useful in clinic isn't just treating the presenting complaint. It's making sure patients actually understand what's going on in their body and why. Most people leave their first session with more clarity than they came in with. That tends to make the rest of treatment a lot more straightforward.

Outside the clinic I'm usually cooking, training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or being managed by two cats.

If you've been dealing with something for a while and haven't found a clear answer yet, book in and we'll figure out what's actually going on.
