Clinically proven for migraines.
Whether you're seeking an alternative to conventional medications or looking to complement your current treatment plan, acupuncture can help both manage and prevent migraines:
Studies show that acupuncture can reduce migraine frequency by at least half for 57% of patients compared with 46% who received medication.
Acupuncture recipients report significantly fewer headache days per month compared to those under routine care.
How it works:
-
When people suffer from chronic migraines, their pain pathways can become oversensitized. Acupuncture helps regulate this by influencing neurotransmitter levels, particularly serotonin, which plays a crucial role in pain modulation.
-
Acupuncture can enhance blood circulation, particularly cerebral blood flow. By inserting needles at specific points, it can help dilate blood vessels, reducing the constriction often associated with migraines.
-
Acupuncture can also offer relief by reducing inflammation throughout the body. By stimulating the release of anti-inflammatory markers, it can help alleviate the inflammatory processes often involved in migraine attacks.
