With approximately 28 million Americans currently suffering from migraines, we are proud to offer acupuncture care that is aimed at helping manage migraine pain, frequency, and intensity.

A recent post by the Journal Advocate one again hi-lights the power of acupuncture, especially when combined with chiropractic care, to help patients in managing their migraines. Their most recent article addresses the issues with current treatment methods for migraines.

“The most common treatment for migraine involves drugs and medications that cause a number of unpleasant side effects like nausea, dizziness, fatigue, drowsiness, etc. These medicines just suppress the symptoms of migraines; they do not eliminate the root cause of the problem. Thus, if the patient stops taking the medicines or forgets to take them on time, the attacks return and are often more severe in nature.”

As acupuncturists, we believe in treating the root of the problem while also helping to manage symptoms.

By restoring the balance of qi within the body, stimulating circulation, reducing inflammation and promoting less stress and feel-good hormones, acupuncture can help make your migraines more manageable and thus, improve your quality of life.

If you or someone you know suffers from chronic migraines and hasn’t yet tried acupuncture, a migraine-free future may be just a treatment away.
