You Leave Knowing Exactly How to Treat
All 12 Meridians โ And Why.
A two-day hands-on intensive with TJ Frank.
For licensed practitioners who treat using needles.
You're already needling.
You're seeing results.
But there's a gap.
You have the training. You have the hours in clinic. You're getting results with the points you trust.
But there are patients where you're less certain. Where you reach for your reliable combinations and hope the treatment moves things in the right direction. Where the pattern in front of you doesn't quite fit what you learned, and you're working from instinct more than framework.
Most practitioners who needle know this feeling. Not doubt โ you're qualified, you know your craft. Something more specific: the sense that there's a more systematic way to read what a patient needs, and you haven't fully found it yet.
But you do have two days.
That gap is what this workshop is designed to close.
TJ Frank doesn't just teach needling.
He teaches meridian mastery.
Over 20 years of clinical practice, TJ has developed a framework that focuses on one outcome โ meridian release. Your first skillset is knowing which meridians to treat. The second is how to sequence the needles to get the whole meridian to release โ the secret to lasting, powerful results for your clients.
He's taught this framework to hundreds of practitioners. People travel to Maui specifically to learn directly from him. Now, for the first time, he's bringing it to Australia.
What he teaches isn't theory for its own sake. It's a working clinical model โ the kind you bring to every treatment room, every patient, from the week after the workshop.
TJ graduated from Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in 2005 and spent a decade working in clinical practice in Maui, Hawaii. He has trained extensively in China and has taught his meridian framework to practitioners across the US and internationally.
His approach integrates Western anatomical understanding with the classical meridian system in a way that is immediately applicable in clinical practice.
What TJ teaches isn't available
anywhere else in this format.
"Before this training I was getting results with acupuncture โ but I was never totally sure why the treatments were working. TJ's framework changed that completely. I understand the meridian system in a way I didn't before โ which meridians need releasing and then knowing which points in which sequence to use. I'm using fewer points and getting better results. For any practitioner who needles and wants to understand why their treatments work โ this is the training."โ Dr. Tom Rolley FRACGP, GP & Medical Acupuncturist, Byron Bay
Most CPD gives you information.
This is different.
Most workshops present from the front. You watch, you take notes, you go home and try to remember what you learned. Two weeks later you're back doing what you already know.
This workshop is built differently.
Hands-on correction throughout both days
TJ doesn't demonstrate from the front and take questions at the end. He is beside you, adjusting your technique, explaining what you're feeling and why it matters clinically. You'll see TJ needle, then you'll do it and TJ will review and improve your technique in real time. The learning happens in the correction, not the lecture. That doesn't happen online. It happens in this workshop.
All 12 meridians. Not a sample, not a highlight reel.
Most meridian CPD focuses on a handful of channels. This workshop covers every meridian across two full days โ anatomy, function, clinical associations, and key points for each. You leave with the complete picture, not a partial map.
A framework, not a recipe
The goal isn't to send you home with new point combinations to try. It's to give you the assessment logic to work out the right treatment for any client in front of you. You'll understand how to set up chain-and-link patterns on each meridian and the empirical points to trigger the release. That's the difference between precision and hope.
All 12 meridians and the key points on them.
Plus four powerful Qi Gong forms.
Each meridian follows the same rhythm โ TJ teaches the pathway and point logic, demonstrates, the group practises on partners, and TJ moves through the room to correct and refine.

From practitioners who've
trained with TJ.
TJ's approach is unlike anything I encountered in my acupuncture training. The way he connects the meridian system to what you're actually seeing and feeling in the treatment room โ it makes everything click. I walked out of that workshop treating differently from the very next patient.
Acupuncturist, SydneyI've been dry needling for six years and always felt like I was missing the bigger picture. This workshop gave me that picture. The hands-on correction alone was worth the two days โ you can't get that from a webinar.
Physiotherapist, BrisbaneFor health practitioners who are

P.S. โ You already know the meridians are there. You already know your treatments would land differently if you understood them properly. This is two days to get that โ without four years of acupuncture school. Your clients get better results. You walk out knowing exactly what you're doing and why. That's what's on the other side of this workshop when you register today.
