Vascular pain & headaches

Vascular pain & headaches

Cluster headaches, or vascular algias of the face, cause extremely intense unilateral pain around the eye, often accompanied by tearing, nasal congestion, and marked agitation. Their recurrence, sometimes several times a day, complicates management through conventional approaches.
Dien Chan offers non-drug protocols to relieve these debilitating episodes via targeted facial stimulation. A rigorous method taught by our international team since 2002.

What is Dien Chan?

Dien Chan is the original method of facial reflexology. This modern, natural technique works non-invasively using delicate instruments called multireflex tools.
By combining reflex diagrams projected on the face and body with precise point stimulation, Dien Chan tailors care to each individual’s needs.
The ISMDC (International School of Multireflexology – Dien Chan) has taught this approach since 2002 in Europe and the Americas.
Authors of “The ABC of Dien Chan” (Éditions Grancher, Paris) in French, “Multireflexology Dien Chan” in English and the Faceasit app (Apple Store), we support practitioners seeking to create deep, personalised, and effective treatments.
Dien Chan draws from both Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Its goal: to stimulate the body’s natural self-regulation abilities and restore energy flow to prevent blockages.

Though the list of symptoms may seem daunting and vascular algias present a complex therapeutic challenge, Dien Chan offers a relevant approach to relieve many. The key lies in developing a holistic, adapted care plan.

1| General state

Our priority will be to calm the nervous system, often overstimulated in this condition.
Begin by soothing the person with the Yin rake nº416, gently raking the scalp for at least 4 minutes. If the person is particularly stressed, delicately tap bqc·points 124· 34· with the Little-hammer nº128.

2| Body step

Even if pain is localised (around the eyes), a global approach remains essential. Dien Chan, through its reflex logic, identifies and stimulates body zones linked to the ocular sphere.

It is highly interesting to stimulate the back of the head at eye level using the Massage stick nº424. If this part of the skull is very sensitive, massage it for at least 3 minutes in circular motions, as if loosening the surface.
Another body zone linked to the eyes is located on the back at chest height. With the same Massage stick, seek out muscle tensions and massage them.

If this massage is uncomfortable, prefer the Big-hammer nº430 to tap the tense area with its saucer side (yin effect).
When one knows reflex diagrams, it becomes clear that the eyes of Madame Yin (the blue lady on the extremities chart of the face) coincide with the knees of the reflex diagram called “Penfield,” as well as with the pulp of each little finger.
These relationships invite us to seek sensitive points on the knees and little fingers. Use the large detector of the Comet nº133 to test sensitivity, then choose a yin roller to relieve tension.

Relieve facial vascular pain (cluster headaches) with Dien Chan. Personalized protocols and self-treatment for effective, natural, and lasting management.

For the knees, the Double yin ball nº411 or the Double mini yin roller nº308 will be most suitable. To massage the pulp of the little fingers, prefer the yin roller of the Yin-yang roller nº206.

3| Reflex step

After establishing reflex correspondences, we can refine the approach using specific reflex diagrams, then consolidate the effects with a personalised formula of bqc·points.
Many diagrams propose reflex zones linked to the eyes, as every reflex head includes them. For vascular algias of the face, some of these diagrams suggest targeted bqc·points to integrate into the consolidation step.

However, it is essential not to neglect local work around the eyes to relieve this pain.
Given the acute (rather yang) nature of this disorder, a multireflex tool with a yin effect is preferred. The yin roller of the Yin-yang roller nº206 is particularly recommended for working on the eyebrow arch.

As for the smooth brass sphere of the concave tool nº207, it proves very effective for relaxing ocular tension. Roll it gently about fifty times over each eyelid.
Take care to check the client’s feedback and any perceived relief.

This local step is all the more relevant as it follows the two previous steps, thus inviting the brain to focus attention on the affected area.
Further proof that Dien Chan is not limited to mechanical point activation but is part of a holistic, progressive, and sensory strategy.

4| Consolidation

In this article, we propose a constellation of bqc·points to test in order to create a tailor-made formula, adapted to each client’s unique needs.

a| Nervous system

Although some of these symptoms were already addressed during the first step dedicated to general state, it’s useful to keep them in mind to enrich the evaluation and dialogue with the client.

  • Motor agitation (inability to remain still during crisis)
  • Marked irritability or acute stress during flare-ups
  • Hypersensitivity to certain triggers: light, strong smells, alcohol, etc.
b| Nasal congestion or runny nose

If present, here are some bqc·points to test:
491· 61· which stimulate the Metal element that affects mucus liquefaction and ocular disorders.

c| Eyes

Intense, unilateral pain around the eye, drooping eyelid, excessive tearing on painful side, ocular redness…
65· 188· 555·: ocular disorders, headaches and improves cerebral irrigation.
184· 34·: cranial motor-ocular and optic nerves
354· 18· 330·: excess tears
235· 59· 6· 50·: redirect vital energy to the eyes

A little reminder in the form of a wink (pun intended):

With the Faceasit’clinic app, you’ll find many more bqc·points than those proposed in this article.
Yes, we’re generous!
But beware, these points form constellations, not planetary alignments – though the results might still make you see stars.

Test them, consult their detailed files and keep only the most sensitive ones.
Like a chef tasting before seasoning, compose your tailor-made formula to adapt to your client’s personalised version of the disorder.
And because our mission is to make you truly autonomous, our trainings, articles and tools are here to stimulate your creativity so you can accept all challenges, even the most Vietnamese head-scratchers.

5| The prescription

At the end of the session, using a multireflex tool (chosen according to its effectiveness during the session) will allow the patient to prolong the therapeutic action independently at the first signs of a crisis.
This synergy between clinic care and self-treatment promotes deeper, longer-lasting results, paving the way for significant improvements in subsequent sessions.

Vascular algias of the face are particularly painful and difficult to treat. Dien Chan offers a natural and effective alternative by combining facial reflexology with targeted stimulation using multireflex tools.
Through a structured and personalised approach, this method calms the nervous system, restores energy balance and reduces crisis frequency. Self-treatment between sessions prolongs benefits and reinforces results.

Thus, Dien Chan establishes itself as an innovative solution to durably improve quality of life for affected individuals.
This is why it’s essential to learn it from a serious institution, without risky interpretations or oversimplifications.
With four complete training modules, without dilution or unrealistic promises, you’ll have solid foundations to become the architect of personalised, effective care protocols.
