The secret of the migraine protocol in facial reflexology? Act early. At the first signs (aura, sensitivity to light, onset of tension), apply the protocol to the targeted reflex zones.

The Little-hammer yin-yang
Precision and relief for a targeted treatment of throbbing migraine with the Little-hammer yin-yang nº128.
Begin with the yin side (metal mini-rods) and tap with infinite lightness the temples on the painful side for two minutes. This delicate gesture soothes vascular pressure and prepares the tissues to receive the rest of the protocol.
Then turn the tool over and with the rubber tip, stimulate the main formula point by point (41· 39· 73· 34·), at least one minute per bqc·point.
The throbbing pain begins to dissolve, the nausea eases progressively.
To go further, systematically check the complementary formulas to identify the underlying cause of your migraine (38· 39· 50· for digestion, 26· 16· for the endocrine sphere and 126· 300· for the urinary system).
Every migraine has its own signature — and Dien Chan takes the time to listen.
The Yin-yang roller
Between sessions, the Yin-yang roller becomes your daily ally to space out attacks and act on their deep causes.
If your migraines have a digestive link, perform fifty back-and-forth movements in the right nasolabial fold (liver reflex zone) then in the left (stomach reflex zone), three times a day.
— Its small yang ball of real horn stimulates peristalsis and gently restarts digestion.
— Its yin roller then takes over to soothe hepatic inflammation and rebalance the whole.
Compact, light, always ready — the Yin-yang roller fits anywhere and is out in seconds.
A simple but remarkably effective preventive ritual for those who wish to regain control over their daily migraines.
The detector – smooth sphere
This tool is the hallmark of seasoned practitioners. The multireflex detector makes it possible to stimulate each bqc·point of the main formula (41· 39· 73· 34·) with remarkable precision, adapting the pressure until the patient feels a slight discomfort (the sign that the point is well activated). Thirty seconds per point is enough.
The most sensitive points are not there by chance. They reveal the deep origin of the migraine (sensitivity on 38· 39· 50· points to a digestive link, on 26· 14· or 287· to a hormonal cause, whilst bqc·points 126· 300· to a urinary or renal origin).
A true reading of the body — right at your fingertips.
Finish by rolling the small smooth sphere with infinite gentleness on the painful temple. Its cool and soothing contact closes the treatment with all the delicacy the situation demands.

In most cases, it is relatively easy to determine whether a disorder is yin or yang in nature. However, our students sometimes have difficulty knowing how to act when the distinction is not obvious. ✔︎

Vascular facial pain & headaches
Vascular facial pain or cluster headaches cause extreme unilateral pain around the eye with tearing and nasal congestion. Dien Chan offers targeted facial stimulation protocols to relieve these disabling episodes by calming the nervous system and restoring energy circulation. This non-invasive, holistic approach combines the knowledge of Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine to restore the natural self-regulation of the organism.

The sooner you act, the more you cut short the throbbing pain and nausea before they truly set in.
Also take the time to identify your usual food triggers.
This small observation work can change many things in the long run.
If your migraines have a digestive link (liver or stomach often involved), integrate the adapted treatment into your daily routine.
A few back-and-forth movements around the mouth and along the nasolabial fold are enough to relax these organs preventively and reduce the frequency of attacks.
On days of strong tension, combine this treatment with the anti-stress protocol for a global action on the entire nervous system.
Frequently asked questions
Can facial reflexology be used during an acute migraine attack?
Yes, and this is even the most effective moment. First apply the yin side of the Little-hammer to the painful temple for a gentle vasodilatory action. The stimulation of the points must be progressive — sensitivity is increased during the attack. Many patients report a reduction in intensity of 50 to 70% in 20 minutes.
Can facial reflexology replace anti-migraine medication?
Facial reflexology can reduce the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks and progressively diminish the use of medication. For severe or complex migraines, it is an excellent complement to medical treatment. A natural method should never replace a prescribed treatment without medical advice.
