Acupuncture and moxibustion

Q. What are acupuncture and moxibustion?

Acupuncture involves inserting very thin needles in specific points (acupuncture points) on the body, while moxibustion involves placing and burning moxa (a type of herb) on the acupuncture points. Both acupuncture and moxibustion stimulate the body’s natural healing power to address your symptoms and reduce discomfort.

If appropriate for your symptoms, we may also pass weak, low-frequency electrical currents through the needles, which passively moves your deep muscles and alleviates tension.

背中に鍼を打たれている女性 — We use disposable, thin needles (0.1 mm for facial treatments and 0.16 to 0.25 mm for body treatments) and Japanese-style needles that cause minimal pain.

Q. I am taking blood thinners to prevent heart attacks. Can I receive acupuncture treatment?

You cannot get acupuncture at J-CLINIC if you take certain vascular or blood disorder medications. Although bleeding from acupuncture is rare, these medications may lower your ability to form scabs and place you at a higher risk of bleeding.

You cannot get acupuncture at J-CLINIC if you take any of the following:

– anticoagulants (prescribed for arterial and venous thrombosis)

dabigatran
warfarin
rivaroxaban
apixaban
heparin

– antiplatelet drugs (prescribed for arterial disease)

aspirin
clopidogrel

– thrombolytics (prescribed for arterial and venous thrombosis)

streptokinase
reteplase
alteplase
tenecteplase

Who cannot get acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, or Chinese medicine prescriptions

You cannot receive treatment if you have any of the following diseases or conditions. (For restrictions to physiotherapy, please refer to the physical therapy department FAQ .)

Treatment methods	People with the following cannot be treated
Acupuncture	Acute febrile illness[1], acute infectious disease, cancer[2] and other malignant tumors, peritonitis, appendicitis, bleeding disorders, trauma[3] (injuries, fractures, dislocations), vascular diseases[5] (aneurysms, severe arteriosclerosis), blood disorders[5] (hemophilia, coagulation disorders), pregnancy[6], acute sepsis, infected wounds, metal allergies, presence of implanted electronic devices such as pacemakers[7]

Gua sha	Acute febrile illness[1], acute infectious disease, cancer[2] and other malignant tumors, peritonitis, appendicitis, bleeding disorders, trauma[3] (injuries, fractures, dislocations), nephritis, vascular diseases (aneurysms, severe arteriosclerosis), blood disorders (hemophilia, coagulation disorders), pregnancy[4], acute sepsis, infected wounds, bloodborne infections such as hepatitis B or HIV
Herbal medicine	Acute infectious diseases, cancer[8] and other malignant tumors, peritonitis, appendicitis, bleeding disorders, vascular diseases (aneurysms, severe arteriosclerosis), blood disorders (hemophilia, coagulation disorders), acute sepsis, infected wounds

[1] If you have a temperature of 38.5 degrees Celsius or higher, you cannot receive treatment. If your fever is caused by a bacterial or viral infection, even if your temperature is below 38.5 degrees, you cannot be treated at J-CLINIC. In some cases (for example, your fever is due to stress or overwork), treatment may be possible; please consult your doctor or therapist.

[2] Treatment enhances blood and lymph flow and may increase the risk of the cancer metastasizing.

[3] You cannot get treatment on the injury site and surrounding areas, but can be treated on other parts of your body.

[4] Once you are in your second trimester you can receive treatment, except on the abdomen and lower back.

[5] If you take certain vascular or blood disorder medications, you cannot receive acupuncture. Please see the question above “Q. I am taking blood thinners to prevent heart attacks. Can I receive acupuncture treatment?
”

[6] As a rule, we do not perform acupuncture if you are pregnant. However, once you are in your second trimester, you can get facial acupuncture (but not electroacupuncture). For conditions like morning sickness or breech presentation, treatment is primarily through moxibustion, but low-stimulation acupuncture may be performed depending on your condition (treatment will not be done on the abdomen or lower back).

[7] You can get acupuncture but not electroacupuncture.

[8] Herbal medicines may be prescribed to alleviate the side effects of chemotherapy or radiation therapy, or to bolster physical strength after surgery.

Please consult your doctor or therapist if you have high or low blood pressure or any concerns about existing illnesses or your medical history.

Q. Can I receive treatment while I am menstruating?

You can receive acupuncture treatment during your menstrual period. Acupuncture can relieve symptoms of PMS and menstrual pain.

Cupping: It is best to avoid cupping during the first 3 days of your period. It is okay after the 4th day.

Herbal saunas should be avoided if your body is hot or you feel flushed.

Q. I want to treat my frozen shoulder with acupuncture.

For frozen shoulder, we often propose combining acupuncture with physiotherapy treatment (manual therapy and ultrasound treatment).

Acupuncture stimulates the affected area and improves blood flow, which gives you better range of motion and pain relief. However, the pain may be due to misalignment/distortions in your body, which is better addressed by physical therapy. Therefore, we recommend combining acupuncture with physical therapy treatment.

We’ll first ask in detail about your pain and examine your movement, range of motion, and the depth of your pain. Based on that, we’ll propose a treatment plan aimed at the root cause of your pain.

Q. Can you treat tinnitus?

Yes, we can treat tinnitus. Many of our patients come for acupuncture when their tinnitus medicines don’t work or when hospital exams don’t find anything wrong.

Often, the tinnitus is caused by a deterioration of blood flow around the ear from excessive stress or stiff shoulders, and from aging.

Acupuncture is used to relax the muscles around the ears and the connected muscles in the neck and shoulders. Acupuncture on the limbs, abdomen, and back will further improve blood flow in the body.

When you make an appointment, please let us know how long you have had tinnitus. If it’s been more than 3 months since the tinnitus began, it may be more difficult to cure or take longer to heal.

Facial acupuncture

Q. Can I get facial acupuncture if I’m pregnant?
Yes, you can get acupuncture (but not electroacupuncture) once you are in your second trimester. Because the body is in a delicate state in the early stages of pregnancy, we do not perform facial acupuncture on pregnant women who are in their first trimester.

Q. Can I get laser blemish-removal treatment* a few days after I get facial acupuncture? I’ll be traveling to Bangkok for a week and hope to get both while I’m there.

While you probably can get laser blemish-removal treatment one or two days after facial acupuncture, we would prefer to advise you based on your skin condition after the facial acupuncture treatment.

Also, depending on the type of laser, it may be best to wait one or two weeks after laser treatment before undergoing facial acupuncture to allow the skin to recover before treatment.

*We do not offer laser treatment.

Cupping

Q. What is cupping treatment?

For cupping, we put alcohol inside glass cups, ignite it, and then quickly apply the cups to the body surface, creating a vacuum inside. This draws stagnant blood (stasis) to the surface and improves blood circulation.

Cupping can be effective in cleansing blood, promoting blood circulation, and eliminating waste products. It can help alleviate symptoms caused by poor blood circulation, such as stiff shoulders, back pain, swelling, fatigue, headaches, and autonomic imbalance.

You can watch a video of the treatment.

Q. Is the cupping therapy at J-CLINIC dry cupping?

J-CLINIC can perform both dry and wet cupping.

However, for wet cupping, the doctor will examine your constitution and symptoms before deciding whether or not to perform the procedure.

Gua sha

Q. What kind of treatment is gua sha?

In gua sha, we stroke your skin along the meridians and acupuncture points with a smooth tool made of jade and animal horn. This therapy improves your blood and lymph circulation.

Facial gua sha activates your facial muscles, improves your cells’ metabolic efficiency, and adjusts the balance of moisture and oil under your skin. It can also counter the dark circles under your eyes.
Body massage with gua sha relieves stiff neck and shoulders, headaches, migraines, and other symptoms.

Q. Can I get gua sha massage on the head only?

Yes, you can get gua sha massage on your head only. For head-only gua sha, we do not use oil.

When you make an appointment, please let us know of any symptoms you are suffering from. For example, if you would like gua sha massage to treat a headache, we may recommend that you have a neck massage as well as a head massage.

Gua sha massage costs 800B / session (30 minutes).

* For first-time patients, there is also an initial consultation fee of 500B.

Herbal medicine

Q. My body feels good with the herbal medicine I was prescribed last time. Can you prescribe the same one?

Even if you feel better on your current Chinese herbal medicine or feel that it is right for your body, we still ask that you undergo a medical interview before we prescribe more medicine. There may be changes in your body that you’re not aware of. Even the seasons can affect your physical condition.

The doctor of traditional Chinese medicine will check for changes in your physical condition by examining your pulse and tongue and fine-tune the formula.

漢方薬の生薬、粉末剤、粉末剤をお湯に溶かしたものがカップに入っている — The herbal medicine we prescribe is in powder form, made from the extract of crude drugs. We can prescribe enough for one to two weeks at a time, according to your symptoms.

Q. I have ulcerative colitis. Can it be treated with herbal medicine and acupuncture?

Yes, it can be treated. Acupuncture and herbal medicine can help reduce your symptoms and prevent the condition from becoming chronic.

We will examine your body type and overall health condition and prescribe herbal medicines to ease your symptoms and improve your general health.

Acupuncture can

improve your digestion
ease your symptoms by balancing your autonomic nervous system
improve blood flow

You can get these treatments at J-CLINIC even if you’re taking medicines prescribed by other doctors. However, please first inform your J-CLINIC doctor about your current medications.

The effects of acupuncture and herbal medicine vary from person to person, depending on the person’s body type and health condition. Whether you receive acupuncture treatment, herbal medicine, or both will be decided after our doctor of traditional Chinese medicine examines you and discusses a treatment plan with you.

Patients taking steroid medications can experience an improvement in their symptoms through acupuncture and herbal medicine treatment. Because of this, we see some patients reduce their steroid medicines. However, stopping medications improperly can worsen symptoms. Always consult with your hospital doctor or our traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Do not make the change on your own.

Treatment during pregnancy and postpartum

Q. Can I get acupuncture if I’m pregnant?
No, you cannot get regular acupuncture treatment if you are pregnant. For treating hyperemesis gravidarum (severe nausea and vomiting during pregnancy) and breech baby, we mainly use moxibustion. However, depending on your condition, low-stimulus acupuncture may be used (not on the abdomen).

Fertility

Q. Do you provide fertility treatment?

Yes, we offer fertility treatment through acupuncture and moxibustion therapy, based on traditional Chinese medicine. We help you improve your physical condition so your body can become “ready for pregnancy.”

We also offer acupuncture and moxibustion treatment aimed at improving the pregnancy rate for those who are undergoing artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization, and ICSI treatment at fertility hospitals and clinics.

* If you have fertility issues, we recommend that you see a fertility specialist. The specialist can teach you how to make a basal body temperature chart and test your cervical mucus. They can also administer tests like general semen analysis and postcoital test (Sims-Huhner test) and do a hysterosalpingogram and transvaginal ultrasound to see if there are any causes of infertility from a Western medical perspective. (These tests are not available at J-CLINIC.)
If you feel unwell after treatment

If you feel unwell after treatment

Q. I had acupuncture 3 hours ago, and now I feel tired. What should I do?

After acupuncture or cupping, some people may feel tired or sleepy, or get a fever. If you experience any of these, please drink plenty of water and rest to help you recover naturally.
These symptoms may be triggered because the treatment activates sluggish cells, improves lymph and blood circulation, and causes rapid changes in the body as waste and fatigue toxins are discharged all at once.

People more likely to experience these symptoms include those who are sensitive to stimulation, have low physical strength, or have been chronically ill and are receiving treatment for the first time or after a long break.

Q. I feel sore in the area where I received acupuncture. Is this okay?

Yes, this is normal and no cause for worry. When acupuncture is performed on tense muscles, you may feel tightness or pain, but this sensation typically disappears naturally a few hours after the needles are removed.

Q. I have small bruises where I received acupuncture. Is this okay?

Yes, this is normal and no cause for worry. With acupuncture, you may experience bruising at the needle site, depending on your constitution, physical condition, and needle placement. The bruises typically fade and disappear within 1 to 2 weeks.

Parking

Q. Do you have parking?

Yes, all of our clinics have parking. Please get your parking ticket stamped at our reception desk. Parking fee rules differ by location and for motorcycles and cars.

Chinese Footbath to Relieve Insomnia, Coldness, and Stress｜J-CLINIC’s Self-Care Products

Hello, I am Dr. Nut, doctor of Chinese medicine at Bangkok J-CLINIC.

Do you know about Chinese footbaths?

They are great for self-care and relaxing. And you can now enjoy Chinese footbath at home with the herbal packs at J-CLINIC!

漢方足湯のイラスト — Warming your feet in a footbath improves blood flow, stimulates your parasympathetic nervous system (the system that relaxes your body), and puts you in a relaxed state.

I recommend them for people who suffer from insomnia, sensitivity to cold, or menstrual cramps and for anyone who is stressed and needs help relaxing.

J-CLINIC’s Chinese footbath contains 12 kinds of herbal medicines

販売されている漢方足湯の写真 — 350B for a pack of 5 (tax included). Available at all three J-CLINIC locations.

What are the benefits of Chinese footbaths?

Chinese footbaths can

help you relax and get a good night’s sleep
warm chilled hands, feet, and body and ease cramps, numbness, and other symptoms of poor blood circulation
relieve menstrual irregularities, menstrual cramps, muscle tension, and stress

How to enjoy a Chinese herbal footbath at home

Preparing the Chinese footbath at home is easy.

Take a basin or tub that you can fit both feet into and fill it with hot water (enough to submerge your feet up to your ankles).
Put in the Chinese herbal pack and let it steep in the hot water.
Wait until the water reaches a pleasant warm temperature that’s not too hot.
Put your feet in and let them soak for 10-15 minutes. Do not soak for more than 30 minutes. A cold footbath is ineffective.
You can wipe the water from your feet when you get out.

* I recommend you take a footbath before going to bed. It will warm your body and help you fall asleep.
* One pack can be used several times, for 2-3 days .

Cautions

Do not use if you have wounds or inflammation on your feet.
Do not use if you have diabetes, varicose veins, coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, or a chronic illness that makes you prone to bleeding.
Do not use for 30 minutes before or after meals or while intoxicated.
Do not use if you are pregnant, have sensitive skin, or are prone to allergic reactions to skin.

For more information about the Chinese herbal footbaths, please contact us by phone, email, or Facebook. We’re happy to answer your questions!

Make the most of your visit to Bangkok! Self-care tips to relieve travel fatigue | J-CLINIC Physical therapy and Acupuncture

Hello, this is Sato from J-CLINIC. We’re a physical therapy and acupuncture clinic in Bangkok.

Now that it’s easy to enter Thailand again, many overseas visitors are coming to Bangkok to enjoy their holidays.

But have you ever felt tired while traveling?

Travel is a time to refresh yourself, away from daily life, but many of you may arrive with fatigue stored up in your body. Maybe you worked hard to finish your projects at your job or home before your vacation or you stayed up late packing. Maybe you didn’t sleep well on the plane.

バンコクを旅する女性 — In all the excitement over new experiences and novel sights, you might not notice how tired you are.

But if you ignore that fatigue, you might end up exhausted or even fall sick when you get back to daily life.

旅行の疲れで体調不良な女性 — Some people also get headaches or feel depressed because of fatigue and the change in environment.

In this post, Dr. Ling Ling, J-CLINIC’s acupuncture and moxibustion doctor , introduces some simple self-care tips to help you relieve fatigue during your trip.

鍼灸治療をする中医師のリンリン先生 — Dr. Ling Ling is a nationally certified doctor of Chinese traditional medicine who can prescribe Chinese herbal medicines and perform acupuncture, moxibustion, and cupping treatments.

Try these so you can enjoy your time in Bangkok to the fullest and return home with fresh energy!

Self-care for fatigue while traveling

1. Drink fruit juices

Fruits are a great source of carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals.

タイで食べることができるフルーツ — Many tourists enjoy eating tropical fruits—it’s one of the pleasures of traveling in Thailand.

疲労回復に効果的なスムージー — Fruit smoothies are a tasty and easily digestible way to consume fresh fruits, especially when your body and gastrointestinal tract are tired.

Drinking fresh fruit juices can help relieve fatigue, activate the brain, and eliminate excess salt.

エムクオーティエにあるスムージやさん — In Phrom Phong (near J-CLINIC), I recommend Boost Juice Bars @ EmQuartier.

エムクオーティエにあるスムージやさんのメニュー表 — They have a wide variety of Thai fruits and berries. It’s my favorite !

2. Eat breakfast within an hour of waking up

Generally, our energy metabolism is good in the early morning hours, peaks at noon and then declines over the afternoon. So, try to eat breakfast within an hour of waking up.

Make sure to eat carbohydrates for breakfast. Your body releases insulin to break down those carbs, which stimulates your internal body clock . Adding some protein to your meal will further help your internal clock.

旅行中の朝食 — Make breakfast and lunch your main meals, with adequate amounts of protein and good fats. Even better, eat a balance of nutritious whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and carbohydrates. Carbohydrates help the body relax, sleep better, and eliminate waste.

It’s best if you keep dinner small—but that may be difficult since eating is one of the great pleasures of travel!

3. Get a good night’s sleep

If you have a hard time falling or staying asleep during and after your trip, it can be because your body is not adapting to the changes in time, weather, and environment.

ベッドサイドに時計を置いて寝ている女性 — To get a good night’s sleep, keep your bedroom dark and quiet. The first 45 to 120 minutes after you fall asleep is when you go into deep sleep. If you don’t get enough deep sleep, you may feel dizzy or not feel refreshed when you wake up.

夜にいれたホットミルク — If you have trouble falling asleep, try drinking a glass of hot milk. Milk contains amino acids that have a calming effect.

4. Breathe to relax

Good breathing can relax the brain and reduce stress.

胸と腹部に手を当てて座って呼吸している女性 — **Try this easy breathing exercise in your hotel room.**

A breathing exercise to relax the body

In a quiet place, sit for 5 minutes with your back straight and relaxed.
Put one hand on your chest and the other hand gently on your abdomen.
With awareness, inhale and relax. Exhale and relax. Repeat.

5. Acupuncture to recover from fatigue in less time

If you want to enjoy yourself as much as possible while traveling and not lose time resting, you can try acupuncture, cosmetic acupuncture, or cupping.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture helps to regulate your autonomic nervous system. It improves blood circulation and loosens tension in your body. Because it relaxes your body, acupuncture is great for anyone who has trouble sleeping soundly at night.

問診をするJ-CLINICの中医師 — Before the acupuncture treatment, a doctor of Chinese medicine will first examine your tongue and pulse to diagnose your constitution.

If your goal is to relieve fatigue, you’ll likely feel an effect even after one treatment.

Beauty acupuncture

If you are looking for beauty treatments while in Bangkok, why not try beauty acupuncture? Facial acupuncture works directly on stiff facial muscles. It improves your circulation and counters sagging. It’s also effective against eye strain.

美容鍼をするJ-CLINICの中医師 — Stimulating your skin with extra-thin needles (only 0.1 mm in diameter) activates collagen and elastin, which promotes skin regeneration.

If you’ve never tried acupuncture before, we recommend our cosmetic care course, which combines acupuncture and gua sha massage.

カッサマッサージをするJ-CLINICの中医師 — Gua sha gets your lymphatic fluids moving, which flushes out wastes, and improves blood circulation. It helps reduce dark circles under the eyes and sagging.

* Gua sha massage uses coconut oil, so you will need to remove your makeup before the treatment.

We also offer the lift-up correction beauty acupuncture course, which you can do with your makeup on. This treatment is more stimulating than the beauty care course. We use bone massage and electro-acupuncture to relax stiff muscles and create a powerful facial lift.

Find out more about our cosmetic care course and lift-up corrective beauty acupuncture courses.

Cupping

Cupping promotes blood circulation. It eases your muscles and makes it easier to relax. It’s especially effective against stiff shoulders caused by poor circulation.

カッピングの施術をするJ-CLINICの中医師 — After cupping treatment, you’ll get red spots. They may look like bruises but are painless . The redness will disappear in about 1-2 weeks, although it may last longer (about 2 weeks) in areas where your blood circulation is poor. You might want to keep this in mind when scheduling your treatment—especially if you plan to wear clothes that show your shoulders and back.

Take care of your body so you can enjoy your trip without fatigue!

We look forward to serving you at J-CLINIC with acupuncture and cupping.

* Find out more about treatment fees for acupuncture and cupping . First-time clients must pay a 500B initial visit fee in addition to the regular consultation and treatment fees.

How often should I get treatment?

If you have many concerns (such as bloating, fine lines, blemishes, and wrinkles), we recommend you come around twice a month for intensive treatment.
Once your skin condition improves, a monthly maintenance session should be sufficient.

For those getting facial acupuncture and bone massage for the first time

If you are new to facial acupuncture or are sensitive to stimulation, please consult our staff first.
Bone massage involves pushing on your facial bones and pulling up the muscles of your face, which some people may find painful.

Please tell our therapist immediately if the pain is too much.

This course is also perfect for when you are preparing for an important event and want your skin to be in top condition.
