Your last opportunity to see Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei at a live seminar in Australia, is happening in March 2025!
On the 21st-23rd of March 2025, in Sydney, Australia, Qiology is hosting world famous acupuncture presenter, Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei accompanied by KMS Instructor, Monika Kobylecka for our next Seminar:
Kiiko 2025 | New and Advanced Topics in KMS Acupuncture
This unique opportunity, 11 years after Kiiko Sensei’s last Australian teaching visit, presents practitioners and students of acupuncture with the ability to see one of the world’s living masters of acupuncture for the last time in Australia. This is a must attend event, and one of the most anticipated acupuncture CPD events in Australia for 2025. This will be an iconic moment in acupuncture education in Australia that the present and emerging generations of Australian acupuncturists will benefit from taking part in – An opportunity to learn directly from one of the most significant acupuncture masters of our generation.
Kiiko Matsumoto Style of Acupuncture is renowned worldwide for its clinical effectiveness, and for this reason it’s a highly sought after system of treatment to learn through acupuncture CPD. Those who experience KMS acupuncture treatments receive rapid clinical results, and practitioners become well known for being able to rapidly assist with all varieties of disorders encountered in their acupuncture clinics. We can thank Kiiko Sensei for her tireless development of this style, so that we may be evermore effective in our clinics.
Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture has been continuing to evolve over the years as Kiiko Matsumoto refines and develops the treatment strategies that she has integrated as a result of her study with important Japanese acupuncture Masters, including Master Nagano, Master Kawai and Dr. Manaka. Kiiko Sensei has also developed many of her own unique treatment strategies based on her insights on emerging patient trends in recent years.
During this 3-day seminar, Kiiko Sensei will not only cover the hallmarks of the KMS style of acupuncture that have made it well-known worldwide, but will demonstrate several of the latest developments in the style from the last 10+ years, as well as the newest treatment methods and theories that are currently in development through her tireless research in her clinical practice- Treatments that work rapidly, which we can observe working in real time. It’s here where we take the guesswork out of getting clinical results, and confirm in the moment that the treatment point we are using is having a healing impact on our patients through immediate palpation-based feedback.
Each of the 3-days will focus on the diagnostic zones of the abdomen, the neck and the back with a variety of new and advanced diagnostic and treatment methods based on Kiiko’s latest clinical experience being covered in detail.
This masterclass seminar will be suitable for those who are new to the style, those who are beginners, intermediate or advanced in the style. What you will learn will be applicable the next day in the clinic.
Further to that, you will leave this seminar feeling absolutely inspired by the brilliance of Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei.
For those wishing to advance further in the KMS style after completing this seminar, we will be able to recommend various pathways of study and development, and will make various trainings available to you into the future.
I am absolutely ecstatic about Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei’s final Australian seminar that we are hosting in Sydney in March 2025.
Not only do I walk away from Kiiko Sensei’s seminars with an exponentially increased understanding of acupuncture, and new methods in how to achieve great and lasting clinical results, but it’s simply the most fun and enriching seminar experience seeing Kiiko Sensei in action. She is just brilliant, and lights up everyone with her presence, her depth of knowledge and her amazing treatment methods.
There is a very good reason that Kiiko Sensei has inspired so many acupuncturists, students and acupuncture educators worldwide.
Don’t miss out on seeing one of our generation’s true masters in action…

Benefits of Kiiko Matsumoto Style (KMS) Acupuncture
An Inspirational Short Video with Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei:
“Conversation with a Master”
In this video, Kiiko Sensei covers some vitally important concepts regarding how it’s vitally important for us as acupuncturists to find the most effective acupuncture points for the individual that we are in fact treating in that moment.
If we use our skills to find the “Silver,” “Gold” or “Diamond” levels of acupuncture point indicated for that specific patient, then we can achieve amazing clinical results. Kiiko Sensei gives some examples of patient cases from her clinical practice to outline this concept.
Guided by the Chinese medicine classics, through the work of Kiiko Sensei’s own masters, and through her own tireless research on her patients in her clinical practice combined with teaching internationally, Kiiko uses her unique palpation diagnostics to find the relevant diagnostic zones and the most effective acupuncture points to use in all types of conditions encountered in the clinic. By gathering this unique information and sharing it internationally with her students and instructors, we continue to gather the most effective strategies to help in effectively treating our patients.

Talking about Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture: Interview – Peter Scarselletti (Qiology) & Chamy Leung (Acuneeds)
Kiiko Matsumoto, Lic. Ac.
Founder of Kiiko Matsumoto Style of Acupuncture, Kiiko Matsumoto is internationally known for her scholarly work on acupuncture and interpretation of Chinese Classical texts.
Kiiko Matsumoto is the founder of the Kiiko Matsumoto Style of Acupuncture and is considered to be a “living Master of Acupuncture”. She is well known for her ability to integrate the work of some of the most famous Japanese masters into her practice for the last three decades.
Her style of acupuncture focuses on treating the root cause with emphasis on the entire body rather than single symptoms. As a result, patients find Kiiko’s treatments to be effective and long lasting.
…gentle and effective practitioner
Kiiko Matsumoto’s dedication to her patient’s health is evident in her loyal patient base. She approaches each case with enthusiasm and extensive knowledge. Her style of acupuncture is effective in many different conditions because it focuses on the entire body and adjusts to meet the needs of each individual. Kiiko is well known for achieving incredible results while using the smallest gauge needles that are virtually painless. Many physicians refer their patients to her because they know that she can provide their clients with significant pain and symptom relief without the worry of side effects.
…a brilliant and dynamic teacher
Kiiko Matsumoto’s approach is taught in many acupuncture schools. She regularly teaches her style of acupuncture around the world and in the U.S. Her dedication to researching and understanding the Chinese medical classics makes her one of the authorities on the subject of acupuncture. She shares this knowledge with her patients in her clinic and with students around the world in her seminars. Kiiko’s passion for sharing her research makes her a popular and sought after teacher. Her students find her seminars to be practical, fun and dynamic.
As is required by National Law, we disclose that Kiiko Matsumoto is not a registered health professional within Australia.

Monika Kobylecka, L.Ac.
Monika Kobylecka is a licensed acupuncturist practicing Kiiko Matsumoto Style (KMS) acupuncture at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA). Monika completed her Master of Science degree at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine where she was first introduced to Japanese acupuncture. What shaped her current practice was meeting renowned Japanese practitioner Kiiko Matsumoto in 2004 and learning this master’s unique style. It was during one of the first classes Monika attended with Ms. Matusmoto that she discovered how acupuncture can be practical, effective and interactive – something that a patient doesn’t have to believe is working; they can feel it working right during the treatment.
For over a decade, Monika worked closely with Ms. Matsumoto – observing her in her clinic in Boston, and assisting her in her seminars. She continues to learn from Ms. Matsumoto and has been selected as an approved instructor for the introductory, hands-on classes in KMS acupuncture in the United States and around the world, and is one of the most sought after online teachers of KMS acupuncture methods.
Back home in Los Angeles, Monika’s private practice is based at CHLA where she holds privileges. She sees paediatric patients in an integrative setting of the Pediatric Pain Clinic; is involved in ongoing research on the effects of acupuncture; and runs the CHLA Employee Acupuncture Clinic which provides acupuncture to physicians, nurses and hospital staff.
Her passion for acupuncture, facilitated by Kiiko Matsumoto Style, translates into an ongoing effort to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western medicine in a practical and patient-focused manner.
As is required by National Law, we disclose that Monika Kobylecka is not a registered health professional within Australia.
Monika Kobylecka has had the unique opportunity of studying, working, and teaching with Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei for more than 15 years, and has dedicated herself to the practice and teaching of this clinically effective Acupuncture style. Monika specialises in presenting Kiiko’s most up-to-date information, in a highly structured and coherent manner, allowing attendees to maximise their understanding of Kiiko Style Acupuncture, enabling them to apply it fluently within their practice on their first day back in clinic, for outstanding results.
History of Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture:
Who was Master Nagano?
In post-war Japan, Master Acupuncturist Kiyoshi Nagano began a remarkable and fruitful investigation. Despite being blind, Nagano memorized classical Chinese medicine literature and developed a unique and ingenious theoretical and clinical approach that incorporated classical concepts and emergent insights from Western medicine. His ideas and methods did not follow an established group, which brought a certain stigma in Japanese acupuncture circles. Being mentally robust, he was proud of his ‘lone wolf’ status. Over the next half a century – using his extraordinary palpation and pulse diagnosis skills as a guide – he crafted ingenious acupuncture protocols for all types of conditions. He also became a mentor to two of the most important Japanese acupuncture teachers of our time: Master Acupuncturist Kiiko Matsumoto and Tsuyoshi Shimamura. Master Nagano passed away in 2003

Seminar Curriculum:
KIIKO 2025 | Sydney, Australia: New and Advanced Topics in KMS Acupuncture
One of the most important aspects of all of Kiiko Sensei’s live seminars is staying true to the original foundational palpation-style acupuncture material that she has been teaching for several decades, as well as bringing new and effective diagnostic and treatment methods that she has been developing, to share with her students to augment the total body of work that Kiiko Sensei has developed to date, which encompasses the Kiiko Matsumoto Style of Acupuncture. A perfect balance of original and new material!
In Kiiko’s live seminars, the primary focus is always to:
- Cover the latest, newest, and most advanced material that Kiiko Sensei has been working on to meet the needs of emerging health issues of our current generation.
- Share new areas of interest that Kiiko Sensei has been exploring which are inspired by the classics, or her original masters, which she has brought into the clinic, and achieved outstanding results with.
With Kiiko Sensei’s new material, anything that “makes the cut” (simple to find reflexes, easy to apply treatment, highly effective results in the vast majority of cases, and easy to learn and apply) is added to the massive body of work of KMS acupuncture, and is shared with Kiiko Sensei’s students as soon as possible.
In this 3-day live seminar, Kiiko Sensei will be sharing the latest and newest methods through lecture and demonstration, focusing on the material of the last 10 years, and the latest material that is currently under development.
We currently cannot provide further details on the exact nature of the new material to be covered yet, as at the date of the seminar, Kiiko Sensei’s latest and newest material will most likely be presented to, and demonstrated on seminar attendees.
However, what we can suggest at this point in time is that major areas of diagnostic and treatment focus will be divided into the 3 primary regions of diagnosis in KMS Acupuncture: the abdomen, the neck and the back, and their relevant associated treatments/treatment points.
We will be sure to update you with more information on the curriculum of the seminar closer to the date of the seminar.
Seminar Structure:
This 3-day live seminar in Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture meets your continuing education needs through a balance of detailed lectures, demonstrations and Q+A, delivered by Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei and Monika Kobylecka.

Pathways of Study in Kiiko Matsumoto Style Acupuncture:
There are several pathways of study in KMS acupuncture, all providing their own unique and enriching continuing education experience.

However, the other pathways are also equally enriching in their own ways.
We outline the various pathways of study below:

There are seating sections in the centre, and seating sections in the “wings.”
The centre, and the wings each have front row seating. We have colour coded areas to determine the various types of seating.

Only those that purchase these seating options are permitted to sit in this section, and they will have a specifically allocated seat (row and number), that they will stay in for the full 3-day duration of the seminar. This allocation will be indicated on your seminar attendee lanyard card.
Further to this, the centrality of the seating position is allocated based on the order of purchasing. Early purchase achieves prime seating position.
Please note that the first row (A) and the third row (C) are blocked for visibility purposes, and no seating is permitted in those rows. This is to maximise the viewing experience for those in the premium seating area, and we cannot alter this arrangement or allow seating in the blocked rows.
Those who are seated in the premium seating section are permitted to place their bags/belongings on the empty seats in front of their seat, as part of their premium seating arrangement.

Presenter’s Media
An Inspirational Short Video with Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei:
“Conversation with a Master”
In this video, Kiiko Sensei covers some vitally important concepts regarding how it’s vitally important for us as acupuncturists to find the most effective acupuncture points for the individual that we are in fact treating in that moment.
If we use our skills to find the “Silver,” “Gold” or “Diamond” levels of acupuncture point indicated for that specific patient, then we can achieve amazing clinical results. Kiiko Sensei gives some examples of patient cases from her clinical practice to outline this concept.
Guided by the Chinese medicine classics, through the work of Kiiko Sensei’s own masters, and through her own tireless research on her patients in her clinical practice combined with teaching internationally, Kiiko uses her unique palpation diagnostics to find the relevant diagnostic zones and the most effective acupuncture points to use in all types of conditions encountered in the clinic. By gathering this unique information and sharing it internationally with her students and instructors, we continue to gather the most effective strategies to help in effectively treating our patients.
