Wang, Shengli, M.D. (China), N.D., Dr.Ac.,
Director, Instructor and Clinical Supervisor
|
|
Dr. Wang began her career in healthcare
in 1976 when she received her Medical Doctorate from Peking Union
Medical College
in Beijing.
Dr. Wang practiced internal medicine at Peking Union Medical hospital for
3 years before receiving specialized post secondary training in
Hematology in 1979. She worked in the hematology department for 8 years
before receiving training as an Allergist in 1987. She worked for two
years as an allergist before coming to Canada on a post doctoral
fellowship. In Canada
she studied the effects of acupuncture on allergies from 1989 to 1991
with the Faculty of Medicine at Memorial University.
She lectured on alternative medicine at Memorial University
from 1993 to 1996.
The results from her post doctorial
research as well as her personal history with TCM led Dr. Wang to pursue
a license as a practitioner of Naturopathy & Acupuncture in 1994, and
subsequently establish the Natural Healing Centre in 1995.
Also in 1993, Dr. Wang received a M.Sc.
of Immunology from Memorial
University.
Currently, she is studying nutritional-immunology and natural nutrition.
This science studies the health properties of foods. Unlike conventional
nutrition which focuses on macronutrients and vitamins and minerals,
Nutritional immunology believes that natural chemicals including
phytochemicals (from plants), polysaacharids, and antioxidants, which are
mainly found in plant foods, aid in the prevention and treatment of
disease. Through Dr. Wang’s research and practice she has seen the
improvement of hundreds of immuno-comprimized patients with diet change,
and organic nutritional supplementation. In other words, we can use plant
foods to support our immune system and in so doing help prevent many
types of disease.
Due to the need for high quality and
affordable products at the Natural Healing Centre, Dr. Wang founded Acta
Herb Inc. in 1998 to research natural health products. As the Chief
Scientific Officer (CSO) and product consultant for Actaherb Inc. Dr.
Wang brings to the company over thirty years of experience in research
and development.
Dr. Wang is the chief doctor of the
Natural Healing Centre, located at St.
John’s, NL, the largest and earliest Acupuncture
clinics in the area, one of the two our stations in the Atlantic
Canada.
