Dr Eileen Han

The closest living link to Dr Richard Tan's clinical method. For 20 years, Dr Han worked directly under Dr Tan — running his clinic, assisting at his seminars worldwide, and continuing to treat his patients after he passed. Treats 50–70 patients daily using Balance Method exclusively.

Born and raised in Taiwan, Dr Han trained from an early age alongside experienced Acupuncturists before spending fifteen years in her family's Acupuncture needle and Chinese medicine supply business — an immersion in the craft long before her formal medical education. She went on to earn a Master's in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and, in 2017, a PhD, with doctoral research on the holographic principles that underpin the Balance Method.

A California-licensed Acupuncturist since 2005 and certified at Gold Level in the Balance Method, she founded Essential Health Acupuncture Clinic and, in 2018, her own teaching academy. She is the author of the two-volume Balance Method reference The Power of the Points, and teaches the system exactly as she learned it at Dr Tan's side — from the core foundations through to the advanced curriculum.
