Meet Dr Mark McAuliffe
Dr Mark McAuliffe has been engaged in allied health practice, bringing four decades of clinical experience to his work. He began his professional studies in chiropractic in 1980, establishing a strong foundation in structural alignment and manual therapies.
A Reiki Grand Master, he taught workshops throughout Australia from 1990 to 1997. He has practiced acupuncture and herbal medicine since 1995 and has been teaching since 2000. From 2001 to 2006, he served as a Senior Lecturer at the Australian College of Natural Medicine (now Endeavour College of Natural Health).
Dr McAuliffe continues to mentor doctors and acupuncturists internationally. His clinical expertise spans Neoclassical Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Master Tung acupuncture, Tan Balance Method, and Zhu Scalp Acupuncture. He also integrates structural alignment methods and training in Jin Shin Jyutsu, the Trager Method, and Bowen Therapy.
He is authorised by Dr Slate Burris as the Neoclassical Acupuncture Lineage Instructor for Australia.
Clinical Experience includes:

- Sports injuries

Dr Mark McAuliffe runs a high-volume clinic operating across six treatment rooms with eight treatment beds. Working an 18-hour clinical week, he treats 60–80 patients weekly at an average fee of $120 per consultation, using only the Neoclassical Acupuncture and Structural Alignment systems developed and refined through daily clinical practice.
This training teaches the same assessment and correction methods used in that clinical environment — practical techniques designed to produce reliable structural change and more efficient patient outcomes.
The majority of cases resolve within four visits, reflecting the precision and efficiency of his clinical method.
This sustained, high-volume practice directly informs his teaching. All instruction is grounded in rigorous palpatory assessment, exact intervention, and immediate clinical verification — ensuring that training remains practical, measurable, and outcome-focused.
