Frontal headaches, characterized by pain in the front of the head, can range from mild to severe. These headaches may present as a pressing or throbbing sensation above the eyes or across the forehead and are common in the general population.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), identifying a pattern is key to tailoring treatment to the individual's unique health condition. It considers the illness's cause, nature, and location, ensuring that remedies target the root issue rather than just symptoms.
This approach is central to TCM's holistic strategy, guiding dietary advice, acupuncture, and herbal prescriptions for comprehensive healing and balance. Understanding patterns is thus fundamental for effective, personalized care in TCM.
