About

Hi, I’m Katrina Qi - founder of Qi Healing House.

In May 2025, I launched this space with a simple but heartfelt mission:

To make the timeless wisdom of traditional healing, the breakthroughs of life science, and the cultural stories behind them accessible to ordinary people.

This space began as a deeply personal journey, shaped by 3 defining chapters of my life.

• The Seed — Geneva’s Global Health Legacy
  In my early twenties, I lived in Geneva, surrounded by the epic institutions shaping global health: the WHO, UN, Global Fund, Red Cross, GAVI, and Doctors Without Borders. As a student intern in this NGO ecosystem, I felt inspired by the scale of humanitarian effort, by how public and private forces could unite to improve lives across borders and ethnicities.
  
  But I also saw the limitations: good intentions often faltered without the right methodologies and tools particularly in business and technology. And in these grand global conversations about health, the voices of traditional medicine were largely absent.
  
  That seed stayed with me. I returned to Asia to explore innovation more deeply, driven by a belief that the future of healthcare must bridge good heart and traditional heritage with modern systems.
  
• The System — Business, Technology, and Scale
  For the next decade, I worked across the Asia-Pacific region — first in strategy consulting with Accenture, then in tech with Meta. My work spanned digital transformation, data analytics, social media partnerships, and innovation across sectors like pharmaceutical, consumer goods, TMT and government.
  
  It was a fast-paced, expansive chapter. I saw how powerful biz-tech innovation could be in shaping world, but also observed how it often served commercial industries first, leaving essential social sectors like health and education trailing behind. Yet these are the very sectors that define what it means to be human, especially in this era of Artificial intelligence.
  
  Over time, I realized: real progress isn’t just about speed or scale. It’s about compassion, connection, and purpose.
  
• The Awakening — Illness as Teacher
  After years of running fast, life slowed me down. I struggled for three years with post-COVID complications — chronic fatigue, hormonal imbalance, and digestive issues that led me, more than once, to the emergency room. Even with access to world-class healthcare in Singapore, I found limits in modern medicine. As a result, I returned instinctively, to traditional medicine: Chinese herbs & acupuncture, Indian meditation, and many other healing techniques, which mysteriously fixed me eventually.
  
  Along the way, I met extraordinary doctors, healers, and thinkers. Many had devoted their lives to healing, yet had little time, platform or language barriers to share their knowledge. Their wisdom is precious to the world, and yet unseen. So I made a promise to help amplify these voices and build a bridge between traditional healing world with modern and global systems.

My Vision of Qi Healing House

I hope Qi Healing House is a living, evolving playground — where ancient traditions meet modern innovation, East collaborates with West, logic and love come together. That’s why I dream of building a Media Lab for Healing — a space where people from all walks of life can co-create with doctors and healers, whether you’re a designer, artist, researcher, engineer, educator, or just someone with a big heart and open mind.

I believe that health and longevity are not isolated pursuits. They are shared human quests, which require collaboration without borders, without ego, and without fear. Therefore, it should be built on compassion, consciousness, and the collective awakening of humanity.

What You’ll Find Here:
