Electroacupuncture With Jenna
Electroacupuncture is a therapeutic technique in which a gentle electrical current is passed through acupuncture needles inserted at specific points on the body to help reduce pain, stimulate nerves and muscles, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Motor point treatment targets specific points on muscles where nerves enter the muscle, using electrical stimulation or manual techniques to activate weak or inhibited muscles, improve muscle strength, reduce spasm, and enhance functional movement.
Together, these treatments are commonly used in rehabilitation to relieve pain, improve neuromuscular function, and support recovery from neurological and musculoskeletal conditions.
Orthopedic acupuncture is a form of acupuncture that’s specifically focused on musculoskeletal health — muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons and movement-related pain — rather than broader systemic or internal conditions commonly treated in traditional acupuncture. It’s often used as a complementary therapy for pain relief, improved function, and recovery in orthopedic and sports-related conditions.
Targeted approach: Unlike classic acupuncture that may focus on balancing “qi” or internal pathways, orthopedic acupuncture directly addresses muscle, joint, and structural issues to help restore normal, pain-free movement
Who Should Book With Jenna
f any of this sounds like you, you’re in the right place:
-You have nagging neck or shoulder pain from work, stress, or old injuries.
-Your hips feel tight, achy, or out of alignment, especially after sitting or workouts.
-You’re recovering from a sprained ankle that never quite went back to normal.
-You struggle with grip strength, forearm tightness, or pain from repetitive use (typing, lifting, racquet sports, etc.).
If pain in these areas is limiting how you move, work, or enjoy your life, Jenna’s treatments are designed for you.
About Jenna Sheppard
Jenna was born and raised in Whitney Pier, Cape Breton, and has proudly called Halifax home for the past 10 years.
Her journey into acupuncture began as a patient—deeply inspired by her own acupuncturist and the profound impact acupuncture had on her health and well-being. That experience sparked a meaningful career change and a passion for helping others heal.
As a Black acupuncturist, Jenna is committed to providing inclusive, culturally aware, and compassionate care in a field where representation matters. She strives to create a safe and welcoming space for all patients, particularly those from historically underrepresented communities.
Jenna specializes in orthopedic acupuncture and electroacupuncture, with a strong focus on treating both acute and chronic pain conditions. She works with patients experiencing issues such as musculoskeletal injuries, joint pain, back and neck pain, nerve pain, and sports-related injuries.
Her treatments are tailored to each individual, combining evidence-informed techniques with a patient-centered approach to support recovery, improve mobility, and enhance overall quality of life.
When she is not working, you can find Jenna either at the gym, reading books, playing video games or causing a ruckus with her best friends.
