About Your Practitioner
Yoon Lee
is Ahpra-registered Chinese Medicine Practitioner (Acupuncture) and trained Myotherapist with more than 15 years of clinical experience in Melbourne. His approach integrates the depth of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the clinically informed modern musculoskeletal approach, offering a calm, considered, and patient‑centred approach to care.
Qualifications & Professional Background
Yoon completed his Bachelor’s degree at the Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine before undertaking a Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture) at RMIT University.
He later expanded his clinical foundation with an Advanced Diploma of Myotherapy, allowing him to work across assessment, manual therapy, and functional exercise with a balanced and integrative perspective.

• Myofascial Expert Training (2026): Precision palpation, whole‑body assessment, and evidence‑informed application of myofascial and joint mobilisation techniques.
Clinical Focus & Clinical Approach
A clinical approach that explores contributing factors and guides your care plan.His clinical approach goes beyond addressing isolated areas of discomfort. In his early clinical years, Yoon saw a wide range of patients across various clinic settings, which helped him develop a deeper understanding of long‑standing physical patterns, habitual compensations, and movement‑related challenges.
This broader perspective allows him to recognise how each person’s body has adapted over time and to provide clarity and reassurance for individuals experiencing persistent tension or ongoing discomfort.In each session, Yoon combines acupuncture, myotherapy, soft‑tissue techniques, cupping, dry needling, and corrective exercise—not as fixed protocols, but as tools selected according to what each body needs on the day. His style is not forceful or aggressive; instead, it is precise, attentive, and supportive of the body’s natural capacity to promote balance and comfort.
Care Philosophy
Every session begins with a simple question: “What is this person’s body telling us today?” From there, Yoon considers lifestyle, work patterns, movement habits, and individual goals to provide tailored treatment and practical self‑care strategies.
His aim is not only to reduce discomfort but to enhance comfort, mobility, and day‑to‑day function, ultimately supporting a better quality of life. Yoon is committed to thoughtful, respectful, and personalised care that honours each person’s unique presentation

What is Acupuncture/Myotherapy /Cupping/Acupressure&Deep tissue/ Remedial massage?
Acupuncture
Moytherapy
Cupping Therapy
Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In TCM theory, it is understood to influence the flow of Qi and Blood and support the body’s natural regulatory functions. Fine needles are placed at specific points to encourage balance and overall wellbeing. Techniques are selected according to each individual’s presentation on the day.
<<These explanations are based on TCM theory and may differ from Biomedical explanations>>
Myotherapy uses soft‑tissue techniques and gentle manual work to ease muscular tension and support comfortable movement. Each session includes a brief assessment of posture, loading and movement habits, with techniques selected according to your presentation on the day. Dry needling may be included when appropriate, performed by an AHPRA‑registered Acupuncture practitioner.
<<Examples of presentions people commonly bring to the clinic>>
-
persistent neck and shoulder tension
-
postural strain from desk‑based work
-
movement‑related discomfort
-
general muscular tightness and stiffness
-
lower back loading patterns
-
tension associated with prolonged sitting
-
overuse‑related soft‑tissue discomfort
-
mobility restrictions affecting daily activities
Cupping is a technique used in both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern myotherapy practice. Using either heat or air pressure, cups are placed on the skin to create gentle suction. In TCM theory, this method is understood to influence the flow of Qi and Blood and support the body’s natural regulatory processes.
From a musculoskeletal perspective, cupping may help increase local circulation and assist in reducing muscular tension by encouraging blood flow to the surrounding tissues. This can support mobility, ease tightness, and promote general relaxation in the treated areas.
Remedial Massage
Acupressure & Deep Tissue
Corrective exercise with Advanced Stretching
Remedial massage involves the assessment and treatment of muscles, tendons and connective tissues to support comfort and functional movement. Techniques are applied to encourage circulation, ease tightness and support the body’s natural recovery processes. Deep tissue massage works with deeper layers of muscle and fascia using slower, more focused pressure. Both approaches may help reduce muscular tightness, ease postural strain and support mobility in commonly affected areas such as the neck, upper back, lower back and shoulders.
Acupressure Therapy: A needle-free manual approach applying targeted pressure to key points to support muscle relaxation and promote a sense of physical well-being.
Deep tissue massage works with the deeper layers of muscle and connective tissues using slower, more focused pressure. It is commonly used to address areas of tightness, postural strain and general muscular discomfort. This approach may help ease tension in regions such as the neck, upper back, lower back and shoulders, supporting mobility and overall relaxation.
Corrective exercise focuses on identifying movement patterns, postural habits and muscular imbalances that may contribute to discomfort or reduced mobility. These exercises are designed to gently guide the body toward more efficient and balanced movement. By improving strength, control and flexibility in targeted areas, corrective exercise may support posture, enhance stability and assist comfortable functional movement in daily activities.
