About Jennifer (Jenny) Abel R.Ac., R.TCM.P
The body’s ability to heal is amazing, especially when we listen to the messages the body gives us.
Practicing in a gentle, intuitive way, my priority is your comfort and holding a safe healing space to help connect you to your own innate healing power. I also love empowering patients with lifestyle ideas, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diet therapy, meditations, resources, and sharing the healing powers of TCM herbs.
Having studied Acupuncture and TCM Herbology at the Tzu Chi International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine(formerly International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Vancouver), I have also completed numerous continuing education courses in my field, including advanced training in Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture with Michelle Gellis. I received extensive one-on-one TCM Herbalist mentor-ship from Elaine Li. I am in good standing with the College of Complementary Health Professionals of BC.
In addition to TCM studies, for the past 15 years I have been fortunate to have direct study with Mada Dalian, a modern buddha, mystic, and master healer. This experience is life changing, and brings a deeper awareness of the pivotal role repressed emotions play in our health, and the importance of addressing the mind, body, spirit, and consciousness to truly heal.
When not in clinic I enjoy hiking and exploring coastal trails, adoring animals, spending time with loved ones, and practicing active meditations.
I am grateful to share the wisdom of TCM. If you are wanting to take an empowered approach to your health and well-being I would be delighted and honored to share that journey with you.
