Since 1996, Jane has been practising Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. She first practised with her family in London at the Institute of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture, a clinic - and later a Traditional Chinese Medicine school for twelve years -which was established in 1972 by her parents. So over the years, Jane grew up appreciating this wonderful ancient medicine that has benefited so many families in the community. In fact, most of them have been “referred” via word of mouth. Her education consisted of a Bachelor of Science from the University of Western Ontario and a diploma in Traditional Chinese Medicine at the Institute. She then travelled to China where she completed her clinical internship at several TCM hospitals in China, followed by successfully passing 'Level A' for the International Acupuncture Examination in Beijing, China. Upon returning to Canada, she moved to the Durham region to settle her own TCM practice with the Oshawa Clinic Group where she has remained since. Her father (at age 78), to this day, continues to practice at the same location in London, ON, where he also mentors TCM students from various schools. The dedication from both parents has inspired her commitment to the practice of TCM. Other mentors that has influenced her practice over the years included Prof. Zhu Qing-Ming, Taoist Master Jeffrey Yuen, Ann Cecil-Sterman, and Andrew Sterman. In addition to her clinical practice, Jane is one of the many passionate advocates for the TCM community in Canada. As a proactive member of the Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture Association of Canada, Jane is excited to be working towards expanding the acceptance of TCM in integrative healthcare via media campaigns and through associations with Insurance Providers and major health organizations, like WHO (World Health Organization). She continues to look forward in connecting with her community in promoting the health benefits that TCM/A can offer. In the past, Jane has accomplished this via her roles as Vice-President (External Relations, CMAAC) and co-organizer of the World Federation of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Societies (WFAS) International Acupuncture Symposium at Toronto in 2015. Jane had also taken a role as one of the Advisors for the Humber College TCM Program. Humber is the first publicly-funded postsecondary institution in Ontario to offer a comprehensive three-year traditional Chinese medicine program. She has also participated in consultations with other TCM schools.
