Bone Setting
Bone Setting is a traditional method for correcting restrictions in the joints, fascia, and nervous system. It focuses on opening the body, restoring space, and reorganizing your structure so you move with more freedom and ease.
This method comes from long-term internal training, requiring refined sensitivity and the ability to feel deep inside the body — a skill that takes years to develop.
Because of these high requirements, this approach has become rare, even in mainland China. Here you receive one of the few remaining lineages of true body work.
We are based in Chiang Mai, but travel throughout Asia for sessions and workshops.

How it works
Scheduled 3–6 day blocks
Bone Setting sessions are run in focused 3–6 day clinics in selected cities.
Rather than weekly appointments, clients book during these short blocks and return when we return to their area, usually every 1-3 months.
Each visit builds on the last, with time between clinics allowing the body to settle and integrate the changes.
Availability for new clients is often limited.
Experienced Practitioner
10+ years of Kung Fu foundations, combined with certified bodywork training and nine years of professional practice in London/EU.
Integrated Approach
Training and bodywork work together: one opens and reorganizes the body, the other teaches it how to stay strong, grounded, and flexible.
Personalised Method
Every session adapts to your unique structure, tension patterns, lifestyle, and goals — practical, clear, and results-focused.
Results That Hold
The changes you create aren’t temporary. You teach the body how to keep them through new patterns and better structure.
About Us
Bone Setting History
This work comes from an older internal lineage traditionally practiced by martial artists who trained the body for sensitivity, structure, and control. It is a lost art that cannot be systemized, standardized, or learned through technique alone.
Bone setting in its original form was passed on only through close, long-term apprenticeship with skilled masters, requiring years of direct observation, correction, and embodied training. Because of this, very few people practice it today, even in mainland China.
The work offered here comes from that lineage, developed through sustained internal training and extensive hands-on experience rather than tools, force, or protocols.

What Our Clients Said
“I felt better after just one visit.”
THESE GUYS! 🙌🏻 As most of you know, 15 years ago I experienced a horrendous spinal injury which initially had me in a back brace unable to move for months & ultimately left the vertebrae in my lower back fused with absolutely no movement & up to just 7 days ago I experienced pain on a daily basis . . . Well, after just ONE (yes, one) session with @andymacks_ig & @duranmack of @hme_healing my spine is MOVING & I am pain free! Nearly half of my life I’ve spent dreaming of a solution & now, unbelievably I’ve found it ⚡️ These guys are wizards, incredibly knowledgable, professional, honest, intuitive, wise & such good fun. So happy to have found you now!
Thank you for another amazing session this afternoon guys. My body, spirit, mind & inspiration are all renewed 🙏🏻 This is a good day!!!

"For the first time in my life, my body actually began to reorganize itself."
I’ve had all types of massages, adjustments, and bodywork—Rolfing, Deep Tissue & Thai Massage, Myofascial Release, Cranio-Sacral, Chiropractic—and none compare to HME HEALING. The Qi Setting I received seemed to get to the most essential, deepest parts of my body and nearly instantly corrected root skeletal misalignments in my ankles, hips, sacrum, lumbar, thoracic, cervical vertebra, and even reset my left shoulder so it finally moves comfortably and sits properly in its socket.
After a Qi Setting session (just 10–15 minutes), I feel like I have a brand new skeleton. A typical massage feels good for a day or two, but this left me with an aligned, comfortable core body sensation that lasts for months. After a few sessions, I now have the precious gift of a new, efficient, relaxed way of carrying my body.
In my late 40s I noticed my spine developing odd irregularities and worried I was headed toward the same painful hunch my grandmother suffered with. Now, after several sessions, I feel confident I can maintain a healthy, aligned spine as long as I keep up my Taiji practice and receive a good session every now and then.

"They have an uncanny ability to sense tension"
"I went for a treatment to help correct postural alignments and relieve tightness in my body to improve my Taiji training. They have an uncanny ability to sense tension and postural deficiencies in the body, and his Qi Setting skills are truly amazing in helping to release the areas and re-align the skeletal structure. I felt areas of my body open up that would have taken me years to get to, if ever.
