TCM Migraine and Headache Relief Therapies
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) can affect mood, energy, sleep, productivity, and daily comfort in the days leading up to menstruation. Symptoms may include mood swings, cramps, bloating, headaches, fatigue, breast tenderness, food cravings, or increased stress sensitivity.
At Regis Wellness TCM Clinic Singapore, our TCM physicians provide personalised treatment plans to help relieve PMS symptoms, improve cycle comfort, and support long-term hormonal balance naturally.
Acupuncture for Pain Relief
Acupuncture can support relaxation, circulation, stress regulation, and relief of PMS-related discomfort. Many patients seek acupuncture for cramps, headaches, mood symptoms, and bloating.
Herbal Medicine
Personalised herbal prescriptions may be considered based on your constitution, symptom pattern, and menstrual history. In TCM, herbal medicine is commonly used to support cycle regulation and symptom management.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a warming TCM therapy that uses gentle heat over selected areas or acupuncture points. It may be recommended for patients who experience cold-type cramps, low energy, fatigue, or discomfort that improves with warmth.
Cupping Therapy
Where appropriate, cupping may be used to help relieve upper back, shoulder, or muscular tension that can worsen stress-related PMS symptoms. It may also support relaxation and circulation.
Lifestyle & Cycle Guidance
Advice may include nutrition support, movement strategies, sleep optimisation, stress management, and practical ways to reduce PMS triggers throughout the month. Guidance may also include exercise timing, work stress management, and habits that support smoother cycles.
How TCM May Support PMS Relief
Traditional Chinese Medicine takes a whole-body approach by addressing both physical and emotional symptoms across the menstrual cycle.
Treatment may help:
- Reduce mood swings and irritability
- Ease menstrual cramps and lower abdominal discomfort
- Reduce bloating and water retention
- Relieve headaches before periods
- Improve energy and reduce fatigue
- Support calmer mood and better stress resilience
- Promote smoother, more comfortable cycles
What is TCM PMS Treatment?
In TCM, PMS is viewed as a sign of internal imbalance rather than simply a monthly inconvenience to suppress. Premenstrual symptoms may be associated with disruptions in the smooth flow of Qi (vital energy), Blood circulation, hormonal rhythms, and organ system balance.
Common patterns may include Liver Qi stagnation, Blood deficiency, Dampness accumulation, or stress-related imbalance. Treatment is personalised to address the underlying pattern while supporting symptom relief and long-term menstrual wellness.
Causes of PMS from TCM Perspective
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, PMS is viewed as a sign that the body is under stress or out of balance before menstruation. Symptoms often become more noticeable in the days leading up to the period, when hormonal and emotional changes may amplify existing imbalances.
Liver Qi Stagnation
One of the most common TCM patterns linked to PMS. It is often associated with stress, emotional tension, irritability, mood swings, breast tenderness, headaches, and bloating. Symptoms may worsen during busy or stressful months.
Blood Stasis
When circulation is not flowing smoothly, some women may experience sharper cramps, clotting, lower abdominal pain, or fixed discomfort before or during menstruation.
Blood Deficiency
When the body is not adequately nourished, symptoms may include fatigue, dizziness, poor sleep, low mood, light periods, or feeling drained before menstruation.
Dampness Accumulation
This pattern may be associated with bloating, water retention, sluggishness, breast swelling, digestive discomfort, or feeling heavy before the period starts.
Cold in the Uterine / Lower Abdominal Region
Some women experience cramps that improve with warmth, cold hands and feet, low energy, or delayed cycles. Symptoms may worsen after cold drinks or exposure to cold environments.
Yin Deficiency with Heat
This may be associated with irritability, poor sleep, night heat, headaches, dryness, or feeling warm and restless before menstruation.
Spleen Qi Deficiency
Often linked with fatigue, cravings, digestive bloating, loose stools, and low energy, especially in women who are overworked or sleep deprived.
Why This Matters
Different women may have similar PMS symptoms but different underlying TCM patterns. This is why personalised assessment is important. At Regis Wellness TCM Clinic Singapore, our physicians tailor treatment plans according to your symptoms, menstrual history, body constitution, and lifestyle factors.
