Cancer Support
Acupuncture has proven effective as an adjunct therapy for cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and/or radiation. At An Shen Wellness Clinic, we treat cancer patients for the side effects often experienced while ongoing treatment for cancer, such as fatigue, nausea, depression, and anxiety. Acupuncture may also be effective for neuropathies that develop with the use of some chemotherapy drugs. Many insurance companies now pay for acupuncture treatment. If you are undergoing cancer treatment and are experiencing side effects, ask your oncologist about acupuncture or call us to discuss acupuncture treatment. We currently have a cancer support program that offers discounted rates to cancer patients. Call Caroline Derrickson -Umathum at 360-694-7668 to find out more or email her at Caroline@anshenwellnessclinic.com
Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese Herbal Medicine has been used by the majority of the Chinese population for thousands of years, and even today, herbal medicine is still the most common form of treatment worldwide.
Herbs have been proven to be safe and effective when administered correctly, and are a powerful tool in the maintenance of health and the elimination of disease. Many of the herbs that are commonly used today have at least a 2000-year history; therefore an immense amount of experience has been gained over this time that contributes to their clinical use today.
Modern forms of applying herbal therapies are extract granules or powders and tablets or capsules. At An Shen Wellness Clinic, we use a variety of both powders and patents (tablets). Herbal therapy is used in conjunction with acupuncture to provide complete natural treatment of many conditions. One example of an area that is well treated with herbal medicine is WOMEN'S REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH. We use formulas for PMS, painful periods, menopause, irregular periods, and infertility to name a few.

Women's Reproductive Health
Acupuncture and herbal medicine is an effective treatment for many conditions related to women's reproductive health. Some of the conditions include: PMS, menopause, infertility, irregular periods, and painful periods.
The combination of acupuncture and herbs can smooth out the most troublesome PMS. At An Shen Wellness Clinic, we even have husbands picking up herbs for PMS because they work so well - One husband recently picked up herbs for his wife and called the formula his "breathing pills" When I asked him what he meant, his reply was " When she takes these herbs, I'm able to breath easy!". Acupuncture and herbs work well together to lessen or eliminate the symptoms associated with menopause such as: hot flashes, nightsweats, anxiety, sleep disturbance and fatigue to name a few. If you are experiencing these conditions, contact An Shen Wellness Clinic at 360-694-7668 or email Caroline@anshenwellnessclinic.com
