About Jennifer Hoang
Jennifer Hoang had her official training in the United States at the New York College of Holistic Professions and in China at the Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her first hands-on experience began at the age of seven when she and her brothers apprenticed under their father during their escape from Vietnam as the "Boat People".
Starting at this early age, Jennifer witnessed the undeniable effectiveness of acupuncture in the jungles of South Vietnam and Malaysia. Observing and helping her father successfully treat severe conditions amongst the malnourished refugees in harsh environments where modern medical aid was not available, Jennifer learned to embrace the ancient art of Chinese healing.
She is carrying out her family tradition as an acupuncturist in the United States. Recently, Jennifer relocated her private practice from Manhattan to Port Jefferson, NY and St. James, NY. She has been a member of the teaching faculty at the New York College for Holistic Professions in Syosset.
Jennifer’s approach is preventative, holistic and individualized. Treatments are usually a combination of acupuncture, acupressure, ear acupuncture, electro-acupuncture,
moxabustion, exercise, meditation, Eastern nutritional recommendations, massage, and the use of essential oil. She performs all treatments without the involvement of any technicians or medical assistants, and treatments are typically forty five minutes to one and one half hours long.
All techniques and equipment are New York State approved. Jennifer specializes in the area of women’s health including healthy pregnancy and child birth, allergies, insomnia, pain, and emotional imbalance. Those who are needle shy find Jennifer’s treatments pleasant, gentle, and without the need to overcome the fear of needles.
