About Us
Wellness Practitioner Jennifer Poulin is thrilled to be following her dream of opening a community acupuncture center with the goal of making acupuncture accessible to everyone.
Jen holds a master's degree in acupuncture from Tai Sophia. In addition, she is a graduate of the Baltimore School of Massage and a diplomat in Asian Bodywork Therapy through NCCAOM. This means that she is one of the very few practitioners qualified to offer acupuncture, Shiatsu, and western massage therapy.
"Shiatsu, massage and acupuncture have changed my life in so many ways and after years of being a skeptic, I am proud to be a part of the revival of ancient alternative medicines.

I have been going to message therapy for many years. Never found a therapist as effective as Jenn ! I also use her for "cupping" and essential oil therapy....both are also professionally done and effective.

jennifer is a wonderful listener and able to assess what is needed for both massage and acupuncture treatments. Since I have multiple chronic conditions to address she took a wholistic approach to address where my weaknesses are to strengthen those areas. We connected immediately and I think it was serendipity that I found her and The Well.

My husband and I went last night- I'm 40 weeks pregnant and trying to induce labor. Bobby was great and the facility was very nice.
It hasn't been 24-48 hours yet, but hopeful and we'll be back in two days if it didn't work, for a second attempt!

MY FACE REST IN THE ROOM THAT I WAS PLACED IN WAS DIRTY FROM THE PREVIOUS CLIENT AND I WAS TOLD TO PLACE MY FACE THERE. I BROUGHT IT TO THE STAFF'S ATTENTION AND THEY CLEANED IT BEFORE MY SERVICES WERE PERFORMED. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THE ROOMS WERE CLEANED AFTER EACH SESSION, BUT GUESS THAT WASNT THE CASE IN THIS SITUATION. THE GENTLEMAN WHO I WAS SCHEDULED WITH WAS NOT THERE FOR MY APPOINTMENT. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE WELL FOR SERVICES THERE WAS NO ONE AT THE DESK TO GREET ME AND I SAT IN THE LOBBY FOR ALMOST 10 MINUTES BEFORE I WAS ADDRESSED AND ATTENDED TO.
Business response:
I am so sorry and disappointed to hear about your bad experience. We strive to serve each client in a professional yet tranquil environment. We have refunded you for your treatment and given you another treatment free. Due to road closures, another acupuncturist took you so that we wouldn't delay your appointment. All linens and rooms are cleaned after each treatment. I will also check the headrest and order a new one. Thank you for your feedback, we will learn and grow from it.
