Postnatale depressie

25 oktober 202117 december 2018

Veel nieuwe moeders ervaren de ‘baby-blues’ in de eerste twee weken na de bevalling. Veranderende hormoonspiegels, gebrek aan slaap en de enorme veranderingen in het leven die optreden na een baby kunnen allemaal bijdragen aan gevoelens van verdriet en verlies van energie. Postnatale depressie is ernstiger en langduriger. Het treedt op als de depressie niet binnen twee weken verdwijnt of als de depressie zich na de bevalling een maand ontwikkelt. Postnatale depressie kan verdriet, hopeloosheid, angst, verlies van energie, verlies van interesse in dingen, schuldgevoel, veranderingen in eetlust en slapeloosheid veroorzaken. Het is ook mogelijk dat een vrouw negatieve gevoelens over haar baby heeft of weinig interesse.

Voorkomen is beter dan genezen. Een behandeling krijgen voor postnatale depressie kan u bijvoorbeeld helpen sneller een beter gevoel te krijgen. De volgende activiteiten kunnen helpen om u beter te doen voelen:

Vraag om hulp van familie en vrienden
Praat over hoe u zich voelt
Besteed tijd alleen met uw partner of echtgenoot.
Besteed niet veel tijd alleen
Probeer niet te veel te doen
Probeer goed uit te rusten
Ga uit het huis; maak een wandeling of doe iets waar u van geniet
Praat met andere moeders

Behandelingen bij postnatale depressie

Steeds meer onderzoeken gaan in op de behandeling van postnatale depressie, dan wel met acupunctuur. Hierbij merken onderzoekers op: Door het opwindende en remmende proces van de hersenschors via het zenuwstelsel en het immuunsysteem te reguleren, is acupunctuur vervolgens in staat om verschillende neurotransmitters te balanceren tussen de intracefale neuronensynapsen, de reactie van de hersenen op stress te verminderen en de stressvolle geest te ontspannen. Daarnaast reguleert en behandelt het de fysieke symptomen en verlicht de depressieve en angstige toestand.

Kruidentherapie
Ten slotte behandelt Chinese geneeskunde postnatale depressie heel goed. Er zijn veel klassieke kruidenformules om zowel de bron als het symptoom van angst na de bevalling aan te pakken. Hierover kunnen wij u ook meer informatie over geven.

Voedingsadvies
Daarnaast is voedingsadvies nuttig. Overweeg daarom het volgende:

Visolie
Het eten van voedsel dat de nieren voedt (thuisbasis van Jing Essence): zwarte bonen, vis, zwarte sesamzaadjes, melasse, zeewier
Paardenbloem en brandnetels (gemakkelijk verkrijgbaar in theevorm) om ijzer en calcium opname te stimuleren

After 1.5 years of problems with Achilles tendon injuries in both legs, I turned to traditional Chinese medicine at my wits' end. I was treated by Ahc Chen who helped me with my complaints with acupuncture and herbs. I am very happy that I can now function and exercise normally again. My thanks for this!!!

After living with headaches for two years, and despite several visits to the doctor, there was no clarity. Ultimately, with difficulty, I was referred to the hospital, but no one there could say exactly where my complaints came from. It was quickly dismissed as stress. I was prescribed antidepressants, but I preferred not to start them.That is why I started looking for alternative treatments that could help with headaches. That's how I ended up with acupuncture. During my search I found Dr.'s clinic. Chen. Fortunately, I was able to quickly go for a first appointment, and we immediately started with a combination of acupuncture and laser acupuncture.I have now had a number of treatments and I can really say that my complaints have been reduced by at least 80%. I'm slowly starting to get my life back, and it feels so good!Thank you very much for the wonderful care - I will definitely recommend you to everyone!

Dr Chen is a super sweet, funny and wise man. He makes the correct diagnosis and is extremely professional. I came here because of tension headaches caused by cramped trapezius. Because my cervical vertebra had recently been replaced and my lower back had also had surgery in the past, Dr. Chen was super honest and clear about the 'long' treatment process during the very first treatment because I have difficult energy flow due to scar connective tissue. Dr. Chen knows so much. Both from TCM and Western physicians and, in my opinion, this combines wonderfully. He also gave me some herbs. I was skeptical at first, after a few weeks I haven't gotten rid of my complaints yet, but I do notice a difference. If you continue to discuss your complaints and listen to the advice, Dr Chen can help you through any problem. I am extremely grateful. It is also a super organized company, from making the appointment, to the websites, to the nutritional advice, etc., it is super clear and well expressed. In short, better than expected.

For two years I suffered from severe migraine attacks. I tried everything and nothing helped. I ended up with Dr. Shandy. She gave me herbs, specific nutritional advice and acupuncture. After three treatments I no longer suffer from headaches at all. I am extremely grateful to her and I will continue to visit her.

A few weeks ago, with a decent flare up from Tietze syndrome (cartilage between rib cage inflamed) went to this center. Lots of pain and difficulty straightening my back.Shandy was my practitioner and she listened very carefully to my complaints.After the first treatment I was able to stretch my back again and my back felt warm.In the meantime five treatments further and things are going well.I can move smoothly and without pain again.Moreover, Shandy is a friendly fun person who contributes to very positive experience.

I have had a number of treatments for back pain complaints. Dr. Shandy Man gave me a lot of attention, listened to me carefully and helped me to heal. I would definitely recommend this practice.

I’ve been seeing Chen for over a year now to help with my chronic back and neck pain, along with frequent, intense headaches that doctors haven’t been able to fully explain. Since starting treatment with Chen, I’ve regained trust in my body, and my quality of life has steadily improved. Unlike the conventional therapies I tried, which often left me feeling frustrated, Chen and his team made me feel welcome and truly heard from the start. For anyone on the fence, I highly recommend giving it a try to see if it helps you, too. Big thanks to the entire team for creating such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere!

Acupuncture treatment for chronic headaches for Shirley. After a few times the pain reduced. Now after 8 treatments the pain has reduced so much that we are already tapering off again. Very happy with this result!

If I could give Mr. Chen more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! He and his team truly deserve it. I highly recommend anyone dealing with facial paralysis or Bell's Palsy to book an acupuncture appointment with Dr. Chen or any of his colleagues.After the doctors at the hospital told me I would have to live with facial paralysis because my nerve was not functioning, I felt hopeless. However, after just a few sessions with Dr. Chen, my face became more symmetric. A month later, movement had returned. Dr. Chen provided me with a diet plan and Chinese herbs, but most importantly, he gave me hope from the moment I walked in.I cannot thank Dr. Chen enough for his professionalism, empathy, and ability to listen to my needs. His positivity always brightened my day. Acupuncture not only helped my facial nerve recover but also significantly improved my overall health. The center is clean, and the receptionists are friendly. I am forever grateful to Dr. Chen and his team.

In recent years I have regularly suffered from inexplicable abdominal complaints (swollen abdomen, painful intestines). I have now completed 6 treatments and I am already doing much better. My stomach feels light and pleasant. In addition, the treatment also had a positive effect on my menstruation. Previously, I retained a lot of fluid and suffered from a swollen stomach in the week before my period. During my last period I had no problems. So I had a very positive experience with Mark from AHC Chen.

For more than 20 years I had pain in my neck and shoulders/upper back, especially in my left monk's cap muscle. Immediately after the first treatment by Dr. Chen, my complaints were already 80% gone. Unbelievable but true. After a few additional treatments, the complaints have now completely disappeared. In addition, nutritional advice and Chinese herbal mixes have ensured that I have much less flare-ups (inflammation) in my joints as a result of rheumatoid arthritis (which I have been suffering from for 30 years). Currently the treatments focus on other pain complaints that I have. I am hopeful and, above all, grateful for the results so far.

I had been suffering from severe burnout complaints for a long time. Since I have been receiving treatment from Mr. Chen has improved my health a lot. My histamine restriction has become a lot less, which means I sleep better. I also sleep better. I recommend acupuncture Rotterdam to everyone!!! Good parking! Thank you again for the good treatment!

Visited my GP who told me to learn to live with tinnitus. Then sought treatment from Dr. Shandy. She relieved me of my complaints after one acupuncture treatment.

I have had migraines every day for years, and since I started acupuncture treatment at Shandy Man, I have had no more problems. Didn't have a headache either. It works well for me. Super! Nothing to complain about. I will continue to maintain.

After persistent eye pain and whiplash complaints from a car accident 6 months ago, we decided to try acupuncture with Chen. Where physiotherapy did not help, my complaints have greatly reduced after 1.5 months of (laser) acupuncture.In addition, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Lots of expertise and thinks along with you. I would recommend everyone to visit this practice.

Eighteen months ago I came under the care of Dr. Chen.As soon as you arrive at the counter, the reception from the employees is extremely pleasant.The diagnosis was consistent with what I had heard from another doctor years ago. However, I had never undergone acupuncture treatments before. Doctor Chen's acupuncture treatments have helped me enormously. The complaints have not been completely resolved, but progress is going slowly......but surely. I now have plenty of energy again! Thank you Doctor Chen.Also a special word of thanks to Mr. Fat: thank you also very much for the TuiNa treatments. Partly because of your passion for your work, I have been helped very well in practice! You have made a lot of sense to me about my way of life - related to Chinese medicine. Thank you very much.Francis Ponjee

I came to dr. Chen with a chronic headache that lasted for years and because of tiredness, pain spreaded to wider areas. No amount of physiotherapy, medicine or general treatment was able to reduce this pain. Dr. Chen assured me that it is possible to rebuild the area and reverse the pain. After 10 laser acupuncture treatments my pain is gone. I sleep better than ever and can function again. This place gave me faith again. Thank you.

Last November (2022) I first came to Dr. Chen. After a difficult recovery from a number of vertigo attacks from Meniere's disease, I sought help to function normally again. Restore quality of life and return to normal work. I searched the internet for options to help cure Meniere. After an intake with Dr. Chen, I started with a 'protocol', as he calls it. That is 15 days every day (consecutive) acupuncture treatment. So every day, even on his days off, Dr. Chen comes to the practice to treat (what do you mean customer is king 🙂)! Those appointments for the 15-day protocol are also scheduled immediately so that you can start quickly. I couldn't drive myself at the time, so that did have an impact, not only on me but also on my environment (I don't live in Rotterdam). In the beginning I thought I would feel better right away, but recovery of your body also takes energy, so sleep a lot and recover for the first time. After the 15-day protocol we had planned a week of rest, which I also needed for a while and then I started to notice a difference. After that I had acupuncture twice a week every week. Every week it got better. And so reduced to 1x every 2 weeks at the moment. I keep going because I notice that it does my body good and has a real effect. Dr. Chen is also a very skilled man, has a lot of expertise and also helps with other complaints. In addition, he is also a very nice and funny man! So if you have physical complaints, whatever they are, I would recommend acupuncture to everyone with Dr. Chen!

Expert and pleasant treatments at Doctor Chen! After 4 years of occasional cardiac arrhythmias (especially a transshipment) these suddenly got worse and was therefore prescribed beta blockers. Pills in my body didn't feel good and wanted to have it investigated further. Went to Dr Chen in June 2023 and after a few acupuncture/laser treatments I was able to halve my beta blockers and even stop them after a few weeks. In addition to the treatment, I received good nutritional advice and herbal pills, the tongue is looked at and both wrists are felt.

I suffer from tinitus and after hearing from my doctor you just have to learn to live with it, I became quite depressed. Dr Chen has already reduced the symptoms considerably and is still working to bring it down to 0. I feel happy again both emotionally and physically. Am very happy with his dedication and expertise towards me. Dr Chen is a competent person and it feels good how he personally deals with me and the tinitus.

HEALED AFTER SEVEN YEARSMy experience with Dr. Chen has been nothing short of astounding. After struggling with extreme tiredness for seven years, symptoms were getting so bad they affected every area of my life (work, relationships, self-worth). I was growing desperate, as doctors couldn't find anything wrong with me and didn't take me seriously. I decided to try acupuncture. Dr. Chen welcomed me, listened to me and treated me with compassion and understanding. After just one month of treatment and dietary advice, the difference was already noticable and I felt I was getting control of my life again. Now, half a year later, I am almost completely healed of my symptoms. I can not thank Dr. Chen and his team enough for their kindness and skill and recommend Dr. Chen's practice to anyone who is willing to commit to the Chinese doctrine of healing. Thank you!

Born in Rotterdam, but living in the USA for the past 25+ years. I was visiting family when I experienced serious pains around by knee.When it did not go away or lessen after a few days of stretching and light exercises. I decided I needed professional help. After calling multiple different physical therapists and healers/acupuncturists, none of which could or would me with a few hours/1 day notice, Dr Chen was the only Doctor that took my emergency seriously.Dr Chen opened his clinic early on a Saturday to fit me in and came in on his day off to do second session on a Sunday.Dr Chen is personable, kind and engaging. He has a soft hand and a great sense of humor. But more importantly he cares about his patients. He helped lessen and manage the pain and he was upfront about it not going away miraculously, but it would make my flight back home more comfortable.He also gave me diet instructions and lifestyle adjustments that will help mitigate the issues. All and all an amazing experience that I will not soon forget. And next time I am in town I will visit him again...hopefully under less urgent circumstances.

Hello, I had pain in my lower back and shoulders and I found Dr. Chen office via google search. Since the time I started taking acupuncture to get ride of pain, I had a very positive experience with Dr. Chen. He is a very good and knowledgable doctor that do listen to patients. He is doing fantastic job and do care to all patients. Eventhough, my issues were resolved I still keep going to acupuncture to ensure my body will stay in healthy mode. I do recommend Dr. Chen should you have any issue with your lower back and shoulders.

Fantastic CM clinic in Rotterdam. Highly recommend Dr. Chen - just within few weeks he brought me back to life after my body was fully broken - best experience with CM I have ever had - thank you!

I attended the clinic as i have suffered for twenty years with chronic trigerminal neuralgia. I was instantly put at ease by Mr Chen and his confidence that with the correct management and treatment we could ease this issue. I am now 5 weeks into the course and my pain is decreased significantly and i am attending now just once weekly. I can't give a high enough review and i would say if you have doubts you should at least go for an appointment and listen to Mr Chen. 10/10 service from the team there.

Dr Shandy helped me so much with my joint problems and pain management. I am also all around calmer and less anxious since going regularly. The energy of the space is great - no-frills, and there to get it done, with a very kind staff. I am trans and feel very comfortable and respected. Could not recommend more.

After making several visits to the hospital for my complaints I had no success with any of the treatment. Doctor Chen has given a different approach that aims to to solve the core issue and not the symptoms. He is very intelligent, kind, professional, and funny. Within one month my issue was gone! I highly recommend their health center.
