Shawn (Sungwoon) Tjen

Shawn is a Registered Acupuncturist and Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner who has been actively practicing since 2015. He is known for **his uniquely integrated approach**, which includes:

· Manual Therapy: Cupping and deep tissue/sports massage to release tension and improve circulation.

· Electro-Acupuncture: To enhance brain-tissue communication, stimulate endorphins for pain relief, and restore nerve function.

By tailoring these methods, he creates personalized treatments for progressive healing and effective outcomes.

Before transitioning to Chinese Medicine, Shawn worked for seven years as a software engineer—ultimately following in the footsteps of his grandfather’s career in traditional medicine. His clinical focus lies in musculoskeletal issues, supported by a strong foundation in anatomy and physiology, as well as **internal medicine conditions, gynecological concerns, and neurological symptoms**.

Outside the clinic, Shawn is a dedicated father of three children. While his time is often devoted to family, he has a long-standing love for baseball and enjoys the strategic and engaging nature of the game. He also finds an unexpected sense of relaxation and mental stimulation in shopping, which offers him a refreshing escape from daily routines.
