Aja
Njo graduated in 2001 from Tai-Sophia
Institute for the Healing Arts with a masters degree in acupuncture.
Tai-Sophia Institute is one of the oldest accredited acupuncture
schools in the U.S. In addition, I received training in Chinese
Medical Massage at the Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine,
Beijing, China, in 1997. I also had the privilege of studying
electrical acupuncture (The practice of hooking the acupuncture
needles to an electric probe, often used to treat paralysis)
in a Catholic monastery in Bien-hoa, Vietnam, in 1998, 2000,
and 2003.

| Prior
to coming to the U.S. I worked as a teacher and translator.
I have two master's degrees, one in Russian Language and Literature
and a second in history from Palacky University in the Czech
Republic. Before becoming an acupuncturist, I practiced and
taught Shiatsu, the art of Japanese massage. Currently I am
in private practice as an independent practitioner at the Advanced
Alternative Healthcare Clinic in southwest Portland, Oregon.
When I am not at the clinic, my life is full with being mom
to two wonderful sons, wife and volunteer at Outside
In. |
