Prisca Chen
LAc, Dipl OM, FABORM, Mei Zen Preferred Provider
For Prisca Chen, Chinese Medicine isn’t just a profession—it’s a lifelong practice rooted in her upbringing. Growing up in a working-class Taiwanese immigrant family in the San Francisco Bay Area, access to healthcare was often limited, but herbal medicine and medicinal foods were a constant presence in her home. When illness struck, her family acupuncturist provided herbs, dietary and lifestyle recommendations, and referrals when necessary, instilling in her the principles of Yang Sheng (“nourishing life”)—a philosophy that prioritizes prevention and long-term wellness over reactive care. This early exposure to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) shaped her belief that healthcare should be both accessible and empowering, giving individuals the tools to take charge of their well-being.
Originally on the path to medical school at UC Santa Cruz, Prisca realized that conventional medicine alone didn’t align with her holistic view of health. A last-minute decision to pivot to Chinese Medicine led her to a career where she could bridge ancient wisdom with modern science. Today, as one of only eight ABORM-certified fertility specialists in NYC, a Mei Zen Preferred Provider in cosmetic acupuncture, and a nationally board-certified acupuncturist, she offers an integrative approach to reproductive health, fertility, and cosmetic rejuvenation. At Tranquility Base Acupuncture, Prisca goes beyond the bare minimum—providing deeply personalized treatments, high-quality herbal medicine, and a comforting, judgment-free space where patients can feel truly supported in their health journey.
