Headaches and Migraines
Your head is where it hurts. It may not be where it starts.
Headaches and migraines take far more than the hours they last. There is the dread of the next one, the cancelled plans, the day after when you feel washed out, and the constant watching for whatever might set it off.
Many people spend years treating each headache as it arrives, never being asked why they keep coming.
In Chinese Medicine, no two headaches are treated the same. Where you feel it, when it comes, and what else is happening in your body at the time all matter. Tension, sleep, digestion, stress and your cycle can each play a part. Fewer headaches come from understanding your pattern, and that takes more than relief on the day.
We look at the whole picture, including the things you may not have thought were related, and build a treatment plan around you. This may include acupuncture, cupping, herbal medicine, and practical food and lifestyle guidance.
If headaches have been deciding your week for you, my care works comfortably alongside your GP and any treatment you are already receiving.
