Jennifer Strong R.Ac. (Dr.TCM.-Alberta), is a Registered Acupuncturist, practicing acupuncture and Oriental medicine since 1996.    She completed her medical training at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, following an undergraduate degree earned at Mills College (an ivy-league women’s college).  Jennifer has completed additional training in facial rejuvenation and in advanced acupuncture techniques.

As Sheng Zhen chi (qi) gong has proven to be deeply effect in healing on every level, and as it is assessable to beginners, Jennifer continues to study Sheng Zhen.  She is authorized by its’ founder, Li Jun Feng, to teach, and so offers classes through the Comox Recreation Centre and at her clinic.
