Dr. Zhenxia Deng (Dr. Zen), Acupuncturist
Dr. Zen, Dr.AC, R.TCMP (BC), holds both Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Chinese Medicine from Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Since 2012, she has practiced in a variety of settings worldwide, including a TCM hospital in China, aboard cruise ship traveling between the U.S. and the Bahamas, and in acupuncture physiotherapy and osteopathy clinics in New Zealand. Now based in Canada, Zen continues to offer her unique, culturally informed approach to care.
Her specialty lies in gentle, palpation-based acupuncture, drawing from the Dr. Tan Balance Method and the Japanese style of Kiiko Matsumoto. Zen’s treatments are precise, patient-centered, and focused on identifying and treating the root causes of imbalance.
Zen believes true healing requires addressing all layers of wellbeing—physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Outside the clinic, she enjoys yoga, meditation, gardening, hiking, and experimenting with international cuisine, constantly seeking new ways to enrich her life and practice.
