Paul was the first westerner to graduate with a master’s degree from Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and he practiced and taught Chinese medicine in China full-time for 18 years, including working as an acupuncture specialist at the Guangdong Provincial Hospital of TCM.
Paul is the inner circle apprentice of Dr. Bo Zhi-yun, the founder of Abdominal Acupuncture (BMAA). He has translated extensively for Dr. Bo, providing clinical instruction to BMAA clinics in China and now teaches BMAA in the USA for doctoral candidates. Paul is the senior apprentice of Dr. Zuo Chang-bo, the founder of Zuo Acupuncture. This highly integrative system is founded on the spirit of Tung’s Acupuncture, which Zuo developed into his own system by integrating Taoist alchemy, osteopathy and a broad study of other acupuncture systems.
Paul has a thriving private practice in New York City which integrates these two acupuncture lineages along with manual therapy informed by osteopathy into his own healing system.
