Acupuncture has been extensively studied as a treatment for migraine relief and, intriguingly, has shown promising results. Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, it posits that acupuncture can balance the flow of energy, or ‘Qi,’ in the body. Consequently, this balance can alleviate symptoms like migraines. Clinical studies have further indicated that acupuncture can be as effective as conventional migraine medications. Moreover, it comes with fewer side effects. To provide a more detailed perspective, the American Migraine Foundation offers an in-depth look at how acupuncture can be a viable treatment option for migraines. Additionally, a research study published in JAMA Internal Medicine specifically focuses on the effectiveness of acupuncture. Therefore, for those interested in a comprehensive approach to migraine treatment, our clinic offers a blend of Eastern and Western medicine. This includes acupuncture services, about which you can learn more here.
