About Jeff
Since 2002, Jeff Matrician has been licensed by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to practice Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. He was also nationally certified by the NCCAOM in 2002. He holds a Masters of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from the New England School of Acupuncture.
​
In addition to establishing his private practice in Watertown, in 2004 Jeff founded the acupuncture practice at the Wellness Center at Harvard University Health Services a practice only open to the Harvard community.
Jeff received his first exposure to Chinese Medicine through his grandmother, whose knowledge of folk medicine made a deep impression on him. He is a 1998 graduate of Wesleyan University with a B.A. in East Asian Studies. Jeff studied Taichi with Gin Soon Chu, the 2nd disciple of Yang Shou Zhong starting in 1999. He is indebted to Gin Soon Chu's sons Vincent and Gordon, and continues to strive to perfect this nearly lost form of Taichi.
Before studying acupuncture, Jeff worked at Nanjing University, and for the Japanese Ministry of Education.
He was faculty at the New England School of Acupuncture from 2002 to 2013.
​
Since 2010 Jeff has been providing leadership coaching to the executives of small and large companies and nonprofits. His focus is on trying to keep focus on the the big picture and letting the ego get out of the way of the goal. His favorite industry is green tech.
