TCM views headaches and migraines as energy blockages caused by Liver Qi stagnation, Wind invasion, Blood deficiency, or Phlegm dampness that disrupt natural circulation and cause pain.
Headaches and migraines can be debilitating conditions that significantly affect daily life, work productivity, and overall well-being, often leaving sufferers seeking relief from recurring episodes of intense pain. At Qin's Clinic, we offer a holistic Traditional Chinese Medicine approach that targets underlying causes rather than masking symptoms, providing both immediate relief and long-term prevention of future headache episodes.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), headaches and migraines are often caused by imbalances such as Liver Qi stagnation, Wind invasion, Blood deficiency, or Phlegm dampness blocking natural energy flow. Emotional stress, dietary triggers, weather changes, and chronic fatigue can trigger or worsen these conditions by disrupting the body's internal harmony.
