  possibly neck.

  migraine according to the Chinese theory. The
  location, nature of the pain, severity, and
  accompanying symptoms are all used to get a
  detailed picture of what is causing the attacks.

  general health, take your pulse and look at your
  tongue.

• All of this information is then used to determine
  your Chinese Diagnosis. This is a very precise
  way of looking at the causes of your headaches or
  migraines, and it allows the acupuncturist to
  work out a treatment that is specific to your
  symptoms, and overall health.
• Headaches are often related to stress or can
  occur along-side fatigue, muscular pains or
  insomnia and migraines are often accompanied by
  nausea, dizziness and aversion to bright lights.
  In all of these cases, acupuncture can be used to
  treat the root cause of the problem as well as
  dealing with the manifestation.
• In many cases tight muscles in the neck and
  shoulders can contribute or even cause headaches
  or migraine, and acupuncture for headaches in
  Tulsa can be useful to relax the muscles and
  often has dramatic effects. If you have held
  tension in these muscles for some time you may
  not even realize that they are the cause of the
  problem. Some acupuncturists may also use Tui Na
  alongside the acupuncture treatment.

  acupuncturist will use tiny, sterile needles.
  Normally between 6 and 12 are used. Some will
  probably be around your head and neck, and some
  elsewhere on the body. The acupuncturist's
  technique, and the smallness of the needles means
  that it doesn't hurt, and most people find the
  experience relaxing.
