Jo was born in Hong Kong, and experienced the therapeutic effects of regular massage, being treated by Chinese blind massage practitioners.
Jo dedicated herself to Asian floor-based bodywork ( Shiatsu, Tui Na and Thai Massage) from 2002-2011. She met her main teacher, Ajahn Pichest Boonthumme in 2007, living and studying in Thailand for 3 years. Here, Jo learnt spiritual practices, meditation and chanting alongside Thai Massage.
In order to deepen her understanding of how the body works, Jo completed a 4 year Masters degree in Osteopathy. She has been a registered osteopath since 2016. She continues to widen the breadth of her knowledge through professional development, most recently with a certificate in complex infant feeding disorders.
