Jennifer Sloan L.AC., CMT

Jennifer Sloan is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Herbalist who received her Master of Science degree from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco. Along with her studies of acupuncture and herbs, she completed special studies in Pain Management, Gynecology, Pediatrics, Dermatology, and the movement therapies of TaiJiQuan, and QiGong.

She finds that the techniques used in Chinese Medicine, while being very effective at treating any and all types of acute or chronic pain, are also extremely useful in treating many other conditions. This includes all issues of Women’s Health (from PMS to fertility issues, pregnancy, and peri-menopausal symptoms), Men’s Health and Children’s Health.

Jennifer is also certified as a Massage Therapist, having studied the Chinese massage techniques (known as TuiNa) under the expert tutelage of Dr. Rocky Wang. To this, Jennifer also brings many years of study in the fields of Western herbalism, diet and nutrition, and an understanding that all of these modalities can be used together to create the best treatment plan for every individual patient.

Chinese medical theory asserts that there is a profound connection between mind, body, and spirit, and that, by extension, there is also a great interdependence between the individual and the surrounding environment. In order for an individual to thrive, there must be harmony among all of these aspects of one’s life. It is this essential harmony that Jennifer strives to help her patients find in themselves, through the gentle coaxing of acupuncture, simple exercises, lifestyle and dietary advice, natural supplements and individualized herbal formulas.
