Sophia Xiao-Colley is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, wellness expert, acupuncturist, author, and the creator of the Human Body Ecosystem Model.

With nearly three decades of experience in holistic medicine, she has witnessed the profound intelligence and healing potential of the human body.

Her journey began over 30 years ago in China, sparked by a spiritual realisation that we are beings living through our bodies, designed to grow and thrive.

After moving to New Zealand, this understanding deepened as she recognised the human body as a natural ecosystem—one that mirrors the interconnected systems found throughout the Earth. Sophia’s work centres on translating ancient medicinal wisdom into meaningful, practical guidance for the modern world.

She believes it is both our responsibility and privilege to return to a state of balance and wholeness, individually and collectively. By attuning to the body’s subtle, wordless messages, she teaches that anyone can improve their wellbeing and build a healthier relationship with their own unique ecosystem.

Her passion extends beyond personal health to planetary wellbeing. Sophia envisions a future where healthy, harmonious people live on a clean, green Earth—and invites others to join her in contributing to this shared goal.
