Jacques Pialoux

As a key figure in the transmission of the French-Indochina lineage of acupuncture and the groundbreaking work of legend George Soulié de Morant, Jacques Pialoux dedicated over forty years of his life to the study and practice of traditional medicine. The intricate system of acupuncture that Jacques practiced and taught draws upon his extensive research of the principles of the Yi Jing as the energetic interface that binds the material and the spiritual levels of Heaven and Earth. Working entirely without needles, Jacques emphasized subtle awareness and the connection to the healing power of Nature as the foundation of all acupuncture practice.

As an embodiment of the true healer in every sense of the word, Jacques radiated the light of compassion and was tireless in his commitment to serving others. As co-founder and General Secretary of Acupuncture Without Borders – Switzerland, he was engaged in extensive humanitarian work in the form of acupuncture education programs for practicing physicians in several African countries, as well as Haïti and China. His Guide to Acupuncture and Moxibustion has helped a countless number of students reimagine the practice of traditional acupuncture and improve their clinical results.
