Migraine Relief With Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine

Most types of head pain are classified as tension, chronic or migraine headaches. Chronic headaches occur every day whereas migraine headaches are usually one sided and moderate or severe in intensity. The sufferer of these types of headaches is more often than not confined to a darkened room for the duration of a headache which has the power to impact every aspect of their daily life.

This can cause great emotional stress to the sufferer. If this is you then please don't despair - there is a natural side-effect free solution called Chinese Medicine. Chinese Medicine uses a combination of acupuncture and Herbal Medicines to decrease the number of migraine and tension headaches and recent studies have proved that it can also prevent the sufferer from having further attacks.

But before an Acupuncturist decides upon a treatment, there will first be a consultation in which you will have your tongue and pulse diagnosed and be asked the following questions.


  • Is your headache located behind your eyes and temples?
  • Does the headache get worse at night, morning or after eating?
  • Is the pain dull, sharp or severe in intensity?
  • Is the pain sensitive to the light
The answers to these questions will help your Acupuncturist to select the correct acupuncture points for you. Acupuncture points are the areas on your skin where small painless disposable needles are inserted. When these points are stimulated the self healing code in your body will be activated to decrease pain and increase circulation and blood flow - thereby preventing further headaches.

Care Cure Acupuncture offers a Free No Obligation Consultation for all of their patients. Clinics are located in Galway City, Tuam, Loughrea, Dun Laoghaire and Longford. Ring 086-2159282 or see www.carecure.ie for further details.

Eliminate Fibroids The Natural Way with Care Cure Acupuncture

The section below explains how the condition of the liver channel is connected with uterine fibroids.  Your liver regulates the blood in your body – in other words we say in Traditional Chinese Medicine theory that the liver has been given the function of storing blood in the body, regulating blood flow and preventing blood overflow.   I.               Storage of Blood Blood from the liver glorifies and nourishes the body’s meridians (channels which flow through the body) and it also nourishes your fingers/toes nails and eyes. If blood stored in your liver failed to nourish the meridians, it would result in symptoms including numbness, pins and needles, tendon twitch, muscle spasms, and convulse of limbs. Similarly if the eyes do not receive proper nourishment from the liver blood, patients will experience dry, sore eyes or even blurred vision. If your nails do not get enough blood supply, they will become brittle and thin, withered and easy broken. What’s more, liver bl

When visiting our clinic for a consultation, you will be asked to stick out your tongue so our practitioner can diagnose your condition. This can seem like a very strange request, and you’re usually left to wonder what they saw there. This article helps clarify what your practitioner sees on your tongue by clearly explaining the basics of tongue analysis, and will also show you how you can use that information to make dietary choices to benefit your overall well-being.

Acupuncture and Herbs to treat Sinus Infections Sinusitis  or  sinus infection  is inflammation of the air cavities within the passages of the nose. Tiny holes that connect your nasal passages to your sinuses get blocked. It can be caused by a number of factors including colds and flu viruses, infection, polyps, allergies and irritants. If your sinuses can’t drain properly it causes inflammation and swelling around the nasal area. This can directly affect your breathing, cause pain, irritation, headaches and affect your day to day living. The combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs is a highly effective way to treat both the symptoms and the root cause of your sinusitis. Our practitioners stimulate the small channels that connect the sinuses to the nasal passages. Stimulating these congestion points increases blood flow to your sinuses and loosens mucus . This allows the mucus to drain into the nose from the sinuses and allows air to flow into the sinuses from the n
