Gua Sha Workshops
Learn proper Facial Gua Sha techniques with Dr. Jen in hands-on workshops designed to honor the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Participants use the ACU BY JEN Gua Sha Tool (Patent Pending)—crafted to make Gua Sha intuitive, practical, and easy to master.
Developed from Dr. Jen’s 10+ years of facial acupuncture expertise, each tool is made from agate, a stone that supports grounding, inner balance, self-confidence, and spiritual growth. Every stone is uniquely shaped and colored, reflecting the individuality of the person using it.
Attending a workshop is currently the exclusive way to receive this custom tool, ensuring proper technique and respect for traditional principles. New workshops are offered every month, providing an immersive, hands-on experience in facial wellness and mindful self-care.

FAQs
-
Acupuncture is a traditonal Chinese Medicine technique using single-use, sterile needles to strongly boost circulation. It works by using the acupuncture needles to stimulating micro-trauma on key acupuncture points on the body’s skin, muscle and connective tissue to trigger an immune response and other chemical releases to restore balance, or homeostasis, to the body to relieve pain, stimulate collagen, balance hormones, improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation and stabilize the mood to promote overall well-being.
-
Acupuncture is considered very safe due to its minimally-invasive nature. Most people experience little to no side effects. Acupuncture uses very small, thin needles. You may feel slight discomfort and soreness during and sometimes post-treatment, however it should not be unbearably painful. If you are experiencing extreme pain during the appointment, please notify me immediately.
-
Most people can see a transformation after a single session, but I typically recommend people to come bi-weekly for a minimum of 3-6 treatments before switching to monthly touch-ups. Frequency of visits will depend on the skin concern that needs to be addressed, age and state of skin/body health. Facial acupuncture is all about treating the body imbalances first, which then reflects in the quality of skin tone in the face. When the internal imbalances are regulated, it allows for the skin to hold the effects.
-
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that can easily expose key areas like your neck, chest, torso, arms, and legs.
For facial acupuncture, please come with a clean face, and no makeup/sunscreen. Moisturizer is okay.
