Prepare for Your First Acupuncture Visit — Migraine Care (Montreal)

Steps to prepare for your first acupuncture visit so migraine care starts effectively and safely.

Keep a headache diary

Track the frequency, duration, common triggers, and typical recovery pattern for at least 2 weeks before your appointment to speed up assessment.

List medications and safety information

List current medications, supplements, and any recent medical investigations; this helps the clinician build a safer, more effective plan.

What to wear and what to expect

Wear loose clothing for easy access to common acupuncture points; appointments typically include an intake, exam, and a tailored first treatment.
