About Jack Logan

Diploma-qualified in Shiatsu & East Asian Medicine and currently completing a Bachelor of Health Science in Chinese Medicine, Jack is a member of the Shiatsu Therapy Association of Australia. His clinical approach is grounded in East Asian medicine, with a particular interest in how touch, movement and breath can influence the nervous system and help the body shift out of habitual patterns of tension.

Jack now works at the esteemed Ping Ming Health Chinese Medicine clinic in Melbourne CBD — on Elizabeth Street overlooking Flinders Street Station — as the resident Meridian Massage and Shiatsu therapist. His treatments combine channel-based Shiatsu with gentle movement and resistance techniques drawn from Sotai, allowing sessions to respond not only to areas of muscular tension, but also to broader patterns of movement, guarding and nervous-system regulation. Cupping and gua sha may also be incorporated where appropriate.

His bodywork is informed by Chinese Medicine channel theory, particularly the relationship between the Jing Luo system, movement and areas of tension or restriction. Rather than treating an isolated area in a purely mechanical way, sessions aim to work with the body as an interconnected system, using pressure, movement and comfortable directional patterns to encourage greater ease and adaptability.

Jack regularly undertakes professional development across Shiatsu and movement-based therapies. This has included Movement Shiatsu (2020) with Bill Palmer and Sotai training with Paul Mostavvin (2024).

Alongside his clinical work, Jack maintains an ongoing teaching and practice in Raja Yoga under Robert Byrne, practises Ziran Qigong as taught within Master Liu Deming’s lineage, and maintains a dedicated Vipassana practice as taught by S. N. Goenka, with over 70 days completed in silent meditation retreats.
