Have you tried acupuncture to treat migraines? Please share your story.
I been getting acupuncture for 4 years now. I just switched to a new person. I went in with a mild migrsine and came out with a raging migraine. I was shaking and nauseous by the time I got home. I… read more
Anyone have any info on a Daith piercing? I am considering it, but need more information.
I tried it a few years ago. Made mine worse, so I took out the earring and let it grow over. I'd recommend trying acupuncture first. They use the same point, and if that works, you might be a good… read more
I am looking for non-medicinal migraine solutions. Does the Daith Piercjng work? Also wondering if anyone has had success with acupuncture.
Mine doesn't work for my migraines
I have had migraines since I was 5 years old. My Mom always thought they were sinus headaches. They are mostly on the right side. If I get one on the left, it will last a few days, then move to the right. We moved and current doctor just does not get it.
My migraines change from the left side to the right side. They migrate. And there is no rhyme or reason for it. At none that I've figured out.

My migraines are definitely triggered by the barometric pressure going down. It doesn't seem to bother me when it rises. I live in the Calgary, Alberta, Canada region and we have the worst BP changes in the country. Used to love the Chinooks over the mountains as it brings warmer weather but now that I have migraines, I dread them.
I get one almost every time the B. Pressure changes. If I take a ubrelvy as soon as I get the first sign of a migraine I can avoid severe pain. Just have the "dull" pain/pressure
I have tried accupuncture and I think it is finally working for my tension headaches. My person is putting the needles in my stomach area and it is helping. I am also going for messages thru physical… read more
