During a fateful school soccer match at the age of 15 Scott sprained
his ankle. Fortuitously, he was advised to see a "Chinese medicine man"
by his coach.
When inside the Chinatown acupuncture clinic, the pungent smell of
herbs and the precision of the acupuncturist all seemed strangely
familiar to Scott, which he can only describe as if he "was coming
home". This experience left a long lasting impression, one that would
determine his life path in years to come.
During his formative years, Scott enjoyed martial arts, athletics,
team sports and a natural curiosity for understanding how things
'work'.
By the time he was 20, he was juggling full-time carpentry work
around a part-time remedial massage business and Kung-Fu training. It
was all smooth sailing until his back was severely injured from lifting
concrete slabs, a turning point in life which led him to the healing
art of Qi-Gong, initially as a self healing technique.
The next several years saw Scott develop his interest in Qi-Gong,
and to teach Qi-Gong workshops at health retreats in Australia.
Subsequently, his alignment with the philosophies of the Chinese
healing arts led to more formal studies of Chinese Medicine. In pursuit
of further learning he travelled to Asia in 1996. The highlight of this
journey for Scott, was working as an acupuncturist and massage
therapist at Kalubowila Hospital in Sri Lanka at the free acupuncture
clinic.
On returning to Australia in 1998, Scott advanced his studies in
Chinese Medicine. Today Scott works along side Sports Physicians and
General Practitioners in Sydney's CBD, specializing in
muscular-skeletal problems and stress related illnesses.
Scott's passion and curiosity for understanding how things 'work',
continues to inspire him. He now defines his life's work as a healer to
include listening attentively, understanding compassionately and
inquiring insightfully to assist positive change into peoples' lives.
