Meet Sean Dugan L.Ac.
 

Folkwise Herbal Medicine

Hi, I’m Sean. I specialize in using herbal medicine to help people overcome imbalance, disease, and injury to live full, healthy and long lives.

​

As a licensed and board-certified herbalist, I have studied Chinese Herbal Medicine extensively, and constantly seek to expand my knowledge and experience.

 

I have a strong clinical background in successfully treating difficult and chronic cases, often deemed impossible to resolve by other clinicians, and I do not give up easily.

 

I look forward to working with you, and you can trust that I will always be in your corner, actively working to achieve the best outcomes for your health.

Hear from my clients

I've been fortunate to be able to help hundreds of clients with a wide range of health conditions using the transformational power of Chinese herbal medicine. Here a few clients share their experiences with Folkwise Clinic, highlighting the effectiveness of our herbal treatments in improving their health and well-being.

Nancy Z.

"If you have been told that you will have to live with the pain, I would highly recommend reaching out to Sean and seeing if he can help. My husband has a lot of arthritis in his hands, and had daily migraines for years. With the treatments, his arthritic pain is very tolerable, and his migraines are gone. He doesn't have to take pain pills or ibuprofen on a regular basis anymore. The effect of the treatment has been life changing."

Olivia R. 

"When it comes to women's health and vaginal discomfort, it feels like the only answer doctors will give is to take antibiotics, and just keep taking antibiotics. After six rounds of antibiotics trying to treat ureaplasma and BV (bacterial vaginosis), I reached out to Sean at Folkwise. Sean had me fill out an intake and prepared a custom herbal program for me. Within less than one week of taking the prescribed herbs, my body was feeling more balanced than it had in a long time. The herbs cleared up the ureaplasma and BV symptoms quickly. All of the antibiotics I took had caused problems with my skin, hair, and digestion, but the herbs helped all those balance out too. Not to mention, I felt way more validated going to Folkwise and felt Sean had a better understanding of how to treat the issues. I only wish I would have gone there sooner."

Nancy V. 

"I’ve had acid reflux for the past couple of years, but recently I’ve been struggling really bad. I was in constant pain and discomfort to the point where I didn’t even want to eat because it would make the problem flare up so bad. Even healthy food caused me pain. I wasn’t sure what to expect with this type of treatment but the remedies that Sean prescribed to me have helped ease my pain and discomfort immensely. He gave me Chinese herbs to make a tea that I drink daily. It took about 2 weeks to feel the benefits but his remedies have changed my quality of life a great deal for the better. I am currently just using the Chinese herbs (no medications or diet change) and I would say that my acid reflux has gotten about 80% to 90% better! I am able to eat a healthy variety of foods and the pain and discomfort between meals has basically gone away. I highly recommend Sean to anyone that is looking for a natural healing option that actually works."

3. Consultation and Treatment Plan

At our first visit you share your story, and I listen. I ask all the important questions to get to the bottom of your health problems, and I use Chinese medicine diagnostics to understand the nature, cause, and solution for the problems at hand. After my assessment, we will agree on an effective herbal treatment plan that works for you.
