At Yoskarn Clinic, with over 40 years of clinical experience, we have successfully treated countless patients suffering from migraines and chronic headaches through acupuncture therapy.
Understanding Migraines and Headaches
Most patients who visit for acupuncture suffer from tension headaches, migraines, or both. While headaches can sometimes indicate other medical conditions, acupuncture is widely recognized as a safe and effective therapy for both pain relief and long-term prevention.
Acupuncture During a Migraine Attack
During an acute migraine, acupuncture aims to relieve pain without increasing blood vessel dilation in the head.
-
Treatment focuses on points on the arms and legs, avoiding stimulation around the head and neck.
-
Patients are usually treated in a sitting position to stabilize blood flow.
-
In some cases, high-frequency electro-acupuncture (100 Hz) is used to gently constrict dilated vessels and ease symptoms.
Acupuncture for Migraine Prevention
Long-term prevention focuses on balancing the nervous and hormonal systems to reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.
-
Emotional stress is a major trigger. Using SES acupuncture technique, we harmonize the autonomic nervous system, helping the body switch from stress mode to relaxation.
-
For women, moxibustion therapy on the lower abdomen and back helps regulate hormonal balance.
-
Tight muscles in the neck and shoulders are treated with low-frequency electro-acupuncture (1 Hz) to release tension and improve blood circulation.
