Jason (he/they) began his studies in acupuncture over twenty years ago as an acupuncture mentee. Experiencing Traditional Chinese Medicine firsthand shaped not only his understanding of health, but also inspired his path into the healing arts.

He holds both an Honours Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts from the University of Guelph, with studies focused in Biological Science, Psychology, and Nutrition. Combined with his formal training in acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, his education bridges both Western and Eastern perspectives on health, allowing him to approach care through a wider lens of understanding.

Jason is the founder of Gui Acupuncture — a practice created from the belief that healing often begins by returning to the foundations: rest, regulation, connection, and emotional balance. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective, his work considers how emotions such as grief, fear, worry, anger, and joy shape the body over time and influence overall wellbeing.

His practice supports many areas of health including mental wellness, stress and nervous system regulation, sleep, digestion, and menstrual and hormonal health. His approach to healing is grounded, collaborative, and rooted in pattern-based care that meets each patient where they are.

Gender-queer, first-generation Canadian, and of Filipino-Chinese descent, Jason recognizes the many intersections that shape how we move through healthcare and healing. Through Gui, he is committed to creating an LGBTQ2S+ affirming and anti-racist space where patients can feel supported, respected, and cared for.
