Acupuncture is one of the most common forms of therapy to treat migraine and headache. After pharmaceutical medicine, Acupuncture is the next treatment option. It is gaining more popularity these days. Several research studies show that Acupuncture alleviates pain. Migraine can be a debilitating, chronic health condition. While throbbing head pain is a common symptom of migraine attacks, it’s not the only one. Migraine episodes can also involve nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, blurry vision, tunnel vision, sensitivity to light, and sensitivity to sound.
In TCM, Acupuncture points are selected according to either meridian theory or differentiation of syndrome. The two methods of selection are used in a combination in the treatment of migraine and headache.
Acupuncture produces analgesic effects and clinical studies demonstrate that acupuncture provides drug free pain relief. Patients who are suffering from chronic pain, migraine and headache will find acupuncture to be an effective treatment option and it is worthwhile to visit a registered Acupuncturist.
Normally, six to twelve sessions of treatment are recommended to see good results in cases of migraine and headache. Make an appointment at AcuAyur Holistic Health Centre with registered acupuncturist (Dr Kusum Lata) and decide if this is the best approach for you.
