Migraine Treatment in Subang Jaya

Migraine

Treatment

Migraines aren’t just “bad headaches.” They can derail your focus, sleep, work, and social life. The throbbing pain, nausea, and light sensitivity make it impossible to function normally.

Migraine is a type of headache disorder. It’s a neurological condition that causes intense, pulsing pain – usually on one side of the head, and can be accompanied by nausea, visual disturbances, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound.

While medication is often the first thing people reach for, many soon realise it’s only part of the solution. At Regenesis Physiotherapy, we take a broader approach that includes targeted physio, body alignment correction, and proven lifestyle strategies to reduce both the intensity and frequency of migraine attacks.

Common Migraine Symptoms

Migraines usually unfold in four key phases:

  • Prodrome (few hours to days before)
    You might feel unusually tired, irritable, or sensitive to light. Some people crave certain foods, yawn excessively, or notice neck stiffness. These subtle clues can signal a migraine is on its way.
  • Aura (5-60 minutes before)
    Not everyone experiences aura, but those who do report temporary vision changes like flashing lights, blind spots, or zig-zag lines. Some also feel tingling sensations or have trouble speaking clearly.
  • Migraine Attack (4–72 hours)
    This is the most intense phase. Pain is usually one-sided and pulsating. It’s often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light, sound, or even smell. Simple actions like walking or bending over can worsen the pain.
  • Postdrome (After the attack)
    After the pain fades, a foggy or drained feeling may linger for up to 48 hours. You might feel exhausted, moody, or mentally slow.

Our Treatments for Migraine

Targeted Muscle Release & Manual Therapy

We start by identifying tension patterns in the neck, shoulders, and upper back areas that often contribute to migraine attacks. Using hands-on techniques like myofascial release and joint mobilization, we ease tightness and restore movement in problem zones.

Postural Correction & Ergonomic Coaching

Many patients develop migraines from long-term poor posture, especially from desk jobs or constant screen time. We help you relearn healthy posture and modify your daily habits, so you’re not triggering pain without realizing it.

Strength & Mobility Work

Migraines can affect your physical performance and vice versa. We use guided exercises to build resilience in your upper spine and core, reduce overcompensation patterns, and prevent tension from building up again.

Lifestyle Guidance: Hydration, Sleep, Hormonal Balance

Migraine management isn’t just about muscles. We also coach you on practical, real-life strategies for improving sleep quality, staying hydrated, and managing hormone fluctuations,  especially if you suffer from menstrual migraines.

Drug-Free and Personalized

Every plan is built around you. We adjust techniques based on your response, your triggers, and your progress. No one-size-fits-all treatment, and no unnecessary medication if you prefer to stay drug-free.

Whether you’re dealing with occasional migraines or chronic attacks, Regenesis provides a safe, science-based path to relief, right here in Subang Jaya.

Very friendly staff and definitely look for Dr. Chia. Had a case of inflamed tendon on my ankle and thought it would take at least half a year for full recovery. Dr. Chia had it fixed in about a month and half and I would highly vouch for her expertise. Dr. Chia is very sociable therefore making the whole treatment process very enjoyable and less frightening.

Being pain-free is really priceless, especially if it’s affecting the nerve, every min every day, 24x7!I was diagnosed with severe cervical spondylosis - neck bone degeneration esp at c5-c7 with bone spur causing very bad nerve pain at my back shoulder blade and right arm , literally 24x7 since Aug 2024. It really affected my day to day life. A well-known specialist surgeon insisted for immediate surgery but with no guarantee that all will be well. However, I opted for physio, as per another Dr’s recommendation. Unexpectedly came across Regenesis via internet good reviews.That was the best decision I made! Wayne was very patient, knowledgeable, explained to me on every process he did, constantly reminding me on the required exercises and the dos & don’ts. Due to my severe issue, I had visited Regenesis daily for the first 2 weeks & 2 days once later, diligently. After 5.5 mths, the pain subsided ..the visits were then changed to twice weekly just to make sure all in order, till today!Wayne from Regenesis comes highly recommended! This is a sincere and honest testimonial based on my real experience!

Excellent physiotherapy clinic for treating sports injuries. Ms. Chia was highly professional and effectively resolved my wrist and knee issues in fewer than five sessions. She also provided practical home exercises and workouts that helped accelerate my recovery. I highly recommend seeking out Ms. Chia for anyone in need of quality physiotherapy care

Ms Chia is very detail and experience when analysing my shoulder injury (more than 10 years). The road to recovery is a journey but at least the shoulder pain has reduced a lot after the treatment though I still need to do more weight training to strengthen the muscles. Highly recommend this centre especially if you have old injury that has been bothering you.

My cases is L1 fracture,and my first physiotherapy experience after my surgery was excellent, thanks to Dr. Wayne! He was well-mannered, professional, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He took the time to listen, explain the treatment plan clearly, and ensure I was comfortable every step of the way. His expertise and genuine care made a real difference. Highly recommended!

It has a great experience and I have been there for 12 treatments for a lower back pain. The pain I have suffered all this years is now somewhat lessened after each treatment. In fact after my last treatment, it has improved tremendously. I am unable to continue my treatments as I have been asked by my employer to be relocated overseas for a one year assignment. Upon return if I need their assistance again, I will surely look for them once again.Thank you Regenesis for helping me out. I truly value and appreciate the help and care rendered.

I did a walk-in one evening after spraining my ankle, not wanting to risk it getting worse - especially knowing how notoriously chronic sprain injuries can get if left alone. Given the simplicity of the injury, I expected nothing more than a severity assessment and some home care advice.Instead, Wayne very quickly knew the effective treatment to apply - a combination of massages and dry needling that provided immediate relief. Every technique felt very precise and intentional, which was clearly backed by deep expertise and knowledge. I still received the expected care advice, but I also walked out of the clinic losing the limp that I walked in with.By the next day, my ankle felt almost back to normal SURPRISINGLY - when otherwise, I’m sure it would have continued hurting for days. I know exactly who to thank for this. Don't worry Wayne, I'll still take it easy for the next two weeks at least haha.

Fabulous physiotherapists in Regenesis, I love coming here for treatments and looking forward to a chill chat while in the treatment. Always prompt and easy to book and service top notch! They’ve also open early and evening which is a plus point. Parking is easy and after treatment, lots of food to eat. Just book it, you won’t regret it.

How We Work

01

Initial Assessment

Your migraine treatment journey begins with a thorough assessment. We want to understand not just your symptoms, but how your condition affects your movement, independence, and daily life.

02

Custom Treatment Plan

No two patients are the same, and that’s especially true in treatments for migraine. Your care plan may include a mix of hands-on manual techniques, modern modalities, and guided therapeutic movement.

03

Improvement

We educate patients and caregivers on daily modifications, ergonomic strategies, and safe movement techniques to use at home. For many patients, building confidence is just as important as the hands-on therapy itself.

FAQ on Migraine Treatment

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, especially if your migraines are linked to muscle tension, poor posture, or nerve compression. Physiotherapy won’t “cure” the condition, but it can significantly reduce the severity and frequency of attacks by targeting physical triggers most people don’t realise they have.

Absolutely. Physiotherapy is non-invasive and drug-free, which makes it an excellent choice for women dealing with menstrual migraines or pregnancy-related head pain. We’ll tailor your treatment based on your stage and symptoms.

Some patients notice improvement after just a few sessions, particularly in neck and shoulder mobility. For chronic migraines, we usually recommend a structured plan over several weeks to build lasting changes and reduce recurrence.

Not necessarily. While a neurologist’s assessment can be helpful, many patients come to us without a formal diagnosis. We’ll conduct our own comprehensive evaluation and collaborate with your doctor if needed to ensure a coordinated care approach.

That’s perfectly fine. Physiotherapy works well alongside medication, and many patients find they can reduce their reliance on drugs over time with a combined approach.
