Jen Resnick came to Traditional Chinese Medicine through the practice and teaching of the martial arts.  Her 25 years of movement studies led her to investigate theories of the body in Chinese medicine and in meditation practice.  She attended Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in NY and soon fell in love with the breadth and depth of Chinese medicine.

An international champion and nationally-renown martial arts instructor, Jen began her TCM practice in the Bay Area of San Francisco where she also was the Executive Director of a community martial arts center. There, she combined Chinese medicine theory with the practice of martial arts, qi gong and meditation to investigate the path of somatic healing and empowerment through movement.  Her training in Qi Gong and Zheng Gu Tui Na trauma medicine allows her, in turn, to effectively treat sports injuries and musculoskeletal pain. 

Jen is also a pioneering member of the Global Alternative Healthcare Project, one of the first organizations to offer TCM-based medical aid internationally.  She recently traveled to Bali, Indonesia and, together with other team members, treated over 2,000 people.

As a practitioner of TCM, Jen honors the path of seeking wellness through the whole being, and the cultivation of balance in oneself.  She is committed to bringing the fullness of this ancient medicine to each patient and is excited to join Soho Herbs & Acupuncture as a practitioner.

Jen’s educational background includes a B.A. in Semiotics from Brown University and graduate studies at San Francisco State University.  She is nationally certified with the NCCAOM in Chinese herbs and acupuncture, and is licensed in California and New York.
