Yarmouth Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture is general practice medical clinic run by Jordan Whitten D.Ac, D.TCMA, R.Ac.

Jordan completed a three year Diploma of Acupuncture, and a six year Diploma of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. 

Jordan believes in helping patients find the support and guidance their bodies need to reconnect to the innate healing process.  He is proud to serve the Yarmouth community with the natural, non-invasive, effective modalities of Chinese Medicine.

His clinical work is inspired by the scholar-practitioner current of Chinese Medicine practice, and as such, is a firm believer in continuous study and engagement with the classic texts of Chinese Medicine - ‘the water is purest at the source.’

The following quote captures the heart of this path: “半日臨證半日讀書”  (Half a day overlooking disease, half the day reciting books). 

Jordan is a member in good standing with ATCMANS (Practitioner No. 2939), and is insured with PHSG Canada.

He has lectured internationally on Chinese medicine theory, including at Washington Acupuncture and Eastern Medicine Association (WAEMA) and the Wu Faculty of Chinese Medicine.

Jordan is currently focusing on advancing his Classical Chinese language abilities, as well as studying 經方 of the Shanghan Lun (傷寒論).
