About Jennifer Henry

Jennifer Henry, the Acupuncture Lady
Jennifer Henry

Jennifer’s interest in acupuncture began with a severe back injury in her early twenties. By using a combination of treatments, which included Chinese medicine, Jennifer avoided the radical surgery that was said to be necessary. This experience directed her interest toward the body’s natural healing ability and the modalities that support that process.

She received her first Bachelors degree in Biology from the University of California at Santa Barbara and her second Bachelors degree in Nursing from Western Governors University. Jennifer received her Masters degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine from the Santa Barbara College of Oriental Medicine (SBCOM).

She completed her nursing clinicals at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, and continued her post-graduate studies for complementary medicine in the areas of Orthopedic Acupuncture, addiction recovery, internal medicine and amino acid therapy. Jennifer also completed internships at the Morinomia College of Acupuncture and Moxibustion in Osaka, Japan, and at the Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology in Bejing, China. She has studied CranioSacral Therapy with the Upledger Institute since 1995.
