Who we are

JONATHAN TARR
Lic. Ac., DCHAc., CMIR, MSAAc, BSS-Do Dip(T) 

Jonathan is a phenomenal human being with a great sense of humour. He genuinely cares about his patients and students and continues to expand on his knowledge, learning and life. His early career in the early 1990’s started in energy medicine or vibrational healing with the National Federation of Spiritual Healers (NFSH), learning and subsequently being invited to teach Shiatsu at The British School of Shiatsu-Do (London), The City Lit and Mary Ward. From macrobiotics to Chinese medicine, Jonathan followed the path of acupuncture and auricular acupuncture completing these studies in 2004, the same year he was awarded the Winston Churchill Fellowship, which allowed him to go to the source of his studies: China, gaining valuable clinical experience at the Guangamen Hospital in Beijing.

A lifelong interest in music and sound recently brought the work of Fabien Maman to Jonathan’s attention with sound healing and tuning forks, which he now offers as a popular ‘acupuncture without needles’ treatment.

Jonathan continues to share his gifts and knowledge as:

• Director, Ki People (treatments, workshops, events)

• Senior Lecturer, The College of Auricular Acupuncture

• Chair, Microsystems Acupuncture Society

• Founding Member of MAcRWG 

• Committee Member of The British Acupuncture Federation (BAF)
