Menstrual Bleeding

My name is S. A. Here is my health condition testimony I have been suffering from abnormal menstruation cycle with heavy bleeding since the birth of my first child for over 5 years. Each month, my menstrual cycle would last over three weeks with large amounts of blood, clots and nighttime hot flush. I only had a few days break; then my cycle would start over again and again. During past years, I have tried birth control pills, but I could not continue because of side effects. I was prescribed progesterone pills at one point which did not work and also had a D & C after being sent to the hospital.  This immediately stopped the bleeding, but only for a short time. In November of 2012, I found Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J), DAOM., who practices Traditional Chines Medicine and utilizes Chines herbal Remedies. He suggested using his formulas of Traditional Chinese Herbs to support and balance my condition.  As well as changing to a healthier diet. After about five months, my abnormal menstruation bleeding condition gradually better. Bleeding began to stop for a longer period of time; and finally, my menstruation came back to normal cycle for over 18 months. I began having heavy cycles again after having stopped taking the herbal pills for a while. I decided to go back to Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J) herbal formulas and my menstruation cycle went back to normal condition quickly. My health condition and energy feels much better. I would recommend at least trying the herbal remedies before trying other alternatives. I really appreciate Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J) for his care and herbal remedies.                      ~ S. A. 03-28-2014 

Ovarian Cysts

My name is Laura, M. Here is my health condition testimony I have been suffering from ovarian cysts for over 10 years. I had low abdominal pain most days but severe cramps at every period cycle; cramps that would interfere with my daily activities. After seeking different solutions for over 3 years, my cramps were still not getting better, and, on top of that, I had really hard time to get pregnant. I started seeing Dr. Chen in January 2009. He started me on remedies with Chinese Herbal Formulas. After about one month, my cramps were much improved, and after another 2 months, they were completely gone; I had no more breast tenderness, no more bloating before my period, and no more cramps. The most important thing is that in September 2009, I got pregnant with my daughter that is 15 months now. Thank you Dr. Chen. Laura, M. 10-18-2011.

Hair Loss

In August of 2012, we noticed two small bald patches on our 12-year-old son’s scalp. While the patches continued to enlarge, he started to lose hair along his hairline, legs, and arms. He additionally suffered from asthma and food allergies. In January 2013, we tried steroid injections and ointment prescribed by the dermatologist, but our son’s scalp broke out in a rash and his skin started to thin. We made an appointment with Dr. Zhijiang Chen (CJ), D.A.O.M. (Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine), who practices Traditional Chinese Medicine and uses Chinese herbal remedies. He was extremely kind and made our son feel very comfortable. Dr. Chen was expedient with his evaluation and recommended herbal tea, supplements, a foot soak, and topical herbal oil. He additionally made food and lifestyle recommendations, such as acupuncture. We returned to see Dr. Chen 9 weeks later. Our son’s hair had already started to grow back with about 25% improvement! His hair was still thinning, but at a much slower rate. We continued to follow Dr. Chen’s advice and returned 10 weeks later. At this appointment we were very pleased to report almost complete regrowth! At our appointment in July, another 10 weeks later, our son had 100% regrowth of all his hair and had grown 4 1/2 inches in height from the previous year! His pediatrician was impressed with our son’s progress and health and recommended that he continue to see Dr. Chen.  In November of 2013, we were happy to report a thick and full head of hair on our son, as well as only 1 incident of wheezing in gym class since last year.   We can’t thank Dr. Chen enough for all he’s done to improve our son’s health. It’s not easy to follow all of his advice, but very much worth it. J.S., November 24, 2013

Asthma

My son C.K. began having problems with asthma when he was six months old. It started when he became sick with a cold and subsequently had wheeziness.  After being evaluated by his pediatrician, C.K. was sent home with a nebulizer, medication, and a diagnosis of asthma. Over the next six months, we would treat him using the nebulizer when he became sick as that seemed to trigger his asthma attacks.  One night, while on vacation, he had an asthma attack.  He was not sick at the time, and it seemed to be allergy related.  His asthma seemed to be progressing, and his attacks developed more easily. Having struggled with asthma my entire life, I knew the path that he was headed down.  My medical doctor had always prescribed medication to treat the symptoms of my own asthma and never addressed the reason I was asthmatic.  Fortunately, I, myself, had already been under Dr. Chen’s Chinese herbal remedies care and knew that his treatments had helped me tremendously with my own condition.  As soon as we returned home from vacation, I took C.K. to have Dr. Chen evaluate him; he was one year old at the time. My son was completely comfortable with Dr. Chen (DAOM), who is extremely friendly, warm, and very knowledgeable. Dr. Chen recommended some changes to his diet and sent us home with herbal tinctures.  I’m so happy to say that C.K. has never had an asthma attack since. Dr. Chen helped me to realize that I can have control over my son’s health, and we don’t have to become victims to what I thought was the inevitable. Thank you, Dr. Chen, for giving our family the tools necessary to take control of our health. Thank you so very much for everything you have done for us. We are so glad to have you in our much healthier lives!                                              L.K, J.K, and C.K. clients since 2008

Animals

My name is B. B. Here is my Chihuahua healthy testimony.
I’m writing to say how grateful I am to Dr. Chen for caring for my ten year old Chihuahua. My dog is Pedro, and he was diagnosed as having bladder stones and a very large mass. After several scans and various medications, my veterinarian said Pedro would need an operation. When he explained the operation, I was horrified. Pedro is only six pounds and I didn’t think he would survive. I turned instead, thankfully, to Dr. Chen. He was gracious enough to evaluate and send me the Chinese Herbal Formulas he felt my dog needed. Two months later, I returned to the vet and requested a scan. The huge mass in Pedro’s bladder had shrunk to almost nothing. I will forever be thankful to Dr. Chen for his help to Pedro. A year later Pedro is running and playing as well as ever. 03-03-2020.

My Name is L.N. Testimony for my dog AJ healthy condition. My 2 -1/2 year old Black Lab AJ (male) was diagnosed with Bone Cancer of the soft tissue. After a biopsy was done, this made the tumor on his head much bigger than it was before. The tumor started out golf ball size at its worst it was about the size of a softball.  AJ’s condition would not be operable; and only use medication to release pain. I had no other option until one of my friends referred me to Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J), DAOM who practices Traditional Chinese Medicine and utilizes Chinese Herbal Remedies. He was our only hope to keep AJ.  February 2012 we went to his office for a consultation with him.  Dr. C J given lots of his Chinese herbs to AJ and takes by mouth; also, put AJ on a special diet. In about a months’ time I saw the tumor getting smaller and smaller, AJ’s daily activity was more natural and happy; so we reduced the amount of pain meds that AJ was getting.  AJ did not seem to be in pain any more. After about 2 month’s he was off of the pain meds completely and the tumor decreased by 50%.  Every two month’s we would go back to see Dr. C J for continue consult; and every two months the tumor continue to decrease. AJ’s bone cancer size is reduced about 85 to 90% after 8 months of taking Dr. C J Chinese herbs. Currently, AJ still has a small tumor on the side of his head but it is not noticeable like it was. You will not be able to tell he has bone cancer as of today. He is known as our Miracle dog no one can believe it. Thank  you Dr. Zhijiang Chen ( C J ). You are truly a blessing. 10-29-2012

Professional Development

Testimony for my Chinese Herbal Remedies teacher Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J) DAOM “There are good teachers and then there are great teachers. Dr. Zhijiang Chen is not only a knowledgeable Eastern Medicine practitioner, but he also has the gift of sharing his understanding with his students. I’ve had the privilege to study under his guidance since 2004 and truly feel that without his instruction I would have been lost. The philosophy and methodology of Chinese Medicine requires careful translation from Chinese into English. Much of this translation has been watered-down for westerners and thanks to  Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J) I was able to grasp the more detailed and precious lessons of this thousands of years old medicine. My own spiritual path and my clinical practice are enhanced through studying with Dr. Zhijiang Chen (C J). If you wish to find wisdom and practice with confidence, I would highly recommend both Dr. Zhijiang Chen’s books and seminars. They are invaluable for anyone studying Chinese Medicine. And I say all of this with utmost sincerity. ~Jennifer, MSOM 

My name is P. S. Testimony on studying with Dr. Chen.
I would like to share my study TCM experience with Dr. C J. I met Dr. C J after I had decided to start practicing again in 2015. I thought I should take a clinical “refresher” course and was fortunate to have him as the herbal supervisor for my clinic day. I felt an immediate connection with him as I had another Chinese Doctor when I went to China. It was like a family connection…distant but connected. I said, “you will be my shifu-teacher” and as always now, he said, “I will do my best” Dr. C J has a broad and very deep understanding of Chinese herbal medicine and acupuncture. He has helped me understand so much. His analysis of case studies is knowledgeable and logical. His understanding of Chinese herbs is amazing, and furthermore, his applications of the Chinese herbal formulas and the results he achieves are impressive. His deep understanding of Acupuncture and how to apply the theories always lead me in the right direction for treating my clients. Authoring close to 30 books on TCM and taking me
further than I have been in my studies are mind opening and make me think deeper in my remedy strategies. I highly recommend licensed acupuncturists in the USA or other areas in the world to follow him to study TCM and check out his TCM books. Thank you very much Dr. Zhijiang Chen!!! P. S.
