Some Personal Background

Geoffrey Wilson is the creator and developer of the Transpersonal Oriental Medicine paradigm and has been a leading exponent of it in practice for the past 25 years. He was the recipient of instruction in esoteric Taoism in China and Japan, and classical instruction in the USA, UK, and New Zealand.

His focus has been to assist others in the recovery of wholeness, the acceptance of increased responsibility for their health problems and the development of an understanding of how to deal with them effectively.

After completing an Arts degree in Melbourne with majors in philosophy and psychology, Geoff moved to Boston in 1978 to pursue his study of the Oriental healing arts. Upon his return to Australia he held teaching positions at the Australian Shiatsu College – Melbourne and the Australian College of Natural Medicine – Brisbane.

With a commitment to teaching principles and skills, which enable others to accept increased levels of responsibility, Geoff founded the Traditional Healing Arts Centre and later the Australian Institute of Applied Feng Shui both located in Brisbane.
