Acupuncturist Kangyan Chen Shares Passion for Healing Passed Down Through Generations

Kangyan, a dedicated acupuncturist at Kangyan’s Health and Beauty Acupuncture in Stamford, Connecticut, is a beacon of health and beauty in her community. Through her private practice, she offers a sanctuary for those seeking natural and effective solutions to improve their health and enhance their beauty.

The name “Kangyan” itself holds a deep meaning, symbolizing the very essence of health and beauty that she strives to bring to her clients. Her journey towards becoming a healer began on a farm in southern China, where she witnessed her mother using fresh herbs from their fields to treat family and neighbors. It was here that her passion for healing first took root, nurtured by the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that her family held dear.

Immersed in her family’s traditions, Kangyan learned the art of using Chinese traditional tools such as the guasha knife, buffalo horn cup, and moxa poles from a young age. Guided by her mother and other relatives, she absorbed generations of knowledge about TCM, laying the foundation for her future career as an acupuncturist.

Subsequently, her dedication to her craft led her to pursue formal education in the field of acupuncture. She earned a Master of Science in Acupuncture Degree from the prestigious University of Bridgeport, honing her skills and deepening her understanding of TCM principles. Her commitment to excellence is further underscored by her national board certification as a Diplomat of Acupuncture by NCCAOM, ensuring that she upholds the highest standards of practice in her profession.

Licensed to practice acupuncture in the state of Connecticut, Kangyan brings a holistic approach to health and beauty, blending ancient wisdom with modern techniques to provide her clients with personalized care. With a genuine desire to help others achieve optimal well-being, she embodies the spirit of healing that has been passed down through generations in her family.
