Jennifer Wen
Jennifer has been a registered nurse in the home care settings since 2015 and have been taking care of patients with complex medical conditions. As she found that some patients were not responding well to conventional medical interventions, she began exploring traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) techniques as a supplement to western medicine. She grew up surrounded by TCM in Southern China and was able to successfully incorporate some of these techniques into her nursing practice with positive results. Based on this success, she began the process of gaining her acupuncture license.
Jennifer has experience in guasha, cupping, acupressure massage, and auricular therapy. These are holistic approach and noninvasive therapies to promote wellness and healing. Jennifer specializes in complex cases where TCM philosophies can be used in conjunction with western medicine interventions to achieve the best outcome for a patient, but she will ideally become involved with a patient at the earliest states of a concern where TCM can be used to prevent a more serious problem in the future.
​
She offers body and face gua-sha, acupressure massage, cupping and ear seeding sessions at our studio.
