A woman with dark hair and bangs, wearing a black polka dot shirt and brown pants, is sitting on a pinkish-beige sofa, smiling at the camera. Behind her is a pink-colored room with a wooden ladder shelf decorated with plants, books, and decorative items, and a pink and purple lighting.

Dr. Jen Brown, L.Ac, DAcCHM

Jen Brown is a licensed acupuncturist and board-certified herbalist in Texas with a Doctorate in Acupuncture and a specialization in Chinese Herbal Medicine from Pacific College of Health and Science. She earned her Master’s degree from AOMA Graduate School of Integrative Medicine in Austin, where she completed extensive clinical training working with a wide range of patients.

In addition to acupuncture and herbal medicine, Jen is trained in tui na bodywork and cupping, and she draws from both Eastern and Western perspectives to offer care that’s thoughtful and tailored to each person. She also uses Japanese-style abdominal (hara) diagnosis, including techniques influenced by Kiiko Matsumoto, to help guide her treatments. Her work focuses on women’s health, especially menstrual cycle concerns like irregular cycles, PMS, painful periods, hormonal imbalances, and perimenopause. She also works with stress, chronic pain, and digestive issues, particularly when they show up alongside or are influenced by hormonal and nervous system patterns.

Jen’s approach is centered on the whole person. She looks at symptoms in the context of lifestyle, stress, and emotional health, with the goal of helping people feel more steady, supported, and at ease in their bodies. She grew up in Chicago with a father in the medical field, which sparked her early interest in healthcare. But it was her own experience seeking treatment that led her to acupuncture and ultimately shaped the way she practices today. Along with more than a decade of teaching therapeutic yoga, this informs her grounded, compassionate approach to care.

Now based in Austin, Jen aims to create a space where patients can slow down, feel heard, and reconnect with their health. Outside the clinic, she enjoys yoga, being in nature, exploring the city, and spending time with friends and family.
