Arun Rao

Traditional Chinese Remedial Massage Practitioner

Cert IV (Traditional Chinese Remedial Massage)

B.Health.Sc (Nursing)

Arun has been practicing and teaching traditional Chinese healing practices for over twenty years and now has a special interest in their ability to support emotional well being and harmony. Beginning his journey in Chinese Martial arts at the age of 13, Arun went on to learn and instruct the “internal arts” of Qi Gong and Nei Gong gaining a deeper understanding and ability to work with Qi (body’s energy). He then studied Traditional Chinese Medicine, using his theoretical knowledge to inform his clinical massage practice. For a many years Arun lived and participated in a Buddhist Meditation community, developing his understanding the psycho-emotional realm and teaching meditation classes. Later, becoming qualified as a nurse, he embarked on a career in mental health, supporting people in a recovery-focused community model, both acute and long term to support people find harmony and fulfilment in their lives. 

This culmination of experience gives Arun the ability to use Chinese Medical theory, along with a deep understanding of the mind, and mind-body connection to provide a truly holistic treatment, that facilitates physical and emotional well being. Equally, for those who simply want a great, feel good massage, Arun’s experience in the physical arts, and his intuition, mean you will leave the treatment feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated, with a unique feeling of mental clarity.
