Gene Kuntz

Growing up in Louisiana, Gene heard stories of Cajun Healers using herbs and prayer to heal the sick. This, combined with his early love of kung fu movies, set Gene on a path to begin a practice of meditation at the age of 5 and martial arts at the age of 13.

Gene's interest in esoteric arts and the body led him to massage therapy school in 2007. After completing massage school, Gene has used his healing hands on over 7,000 people and performed over 12,000 massages. During this time, he furthered his education with study in both western massage techniques, such as repetitive use injury therapy, medical massage, and reflexology as well as more esoteric techniques, such as Incan Shamanism, Cajun Healing, Reiki, and Qi gong.

Interested in deepening his practice as a healer, Gene pursued his Masters in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with a focus in Medical Qi gong. Early in his TCM practice, Gene worked alongside practitioners at Seton McCarthy’s Community Center to develop “living well with pain” and “living well with stress.” It was there that he began to see the astounding benefits that meditation practices and acupuncture can have on one’s well-being. Through group participation in Qi gong and NADA protocol, also known as auricular acupuncture, patients who were suffering with chronic pain were astonished and empowered when they found themselves pain free using these practices.

Gene now uses acupuncture, herbal formulas, experience in martial arts and meditation to assist his patients in their health goals. Today, Gene works in his private practice and with different recovery centers around Austin. He also has a business with his wife Sara, and business partner Shea, making Bone Setting Water - a powerful healing and pain relieving herbal remedy. 

You may see him around town doing some tai chi, enjoying the beautiful nature Austin has to offer or nerding out a board game store.
