The American Migraine Foundation is recognizing acupuncture as a good treatment option for those that experience chronic migraines. Some argue that certain dietary restrictions can help with the frequency of one's migraines, alongside regular acupuncture treatments. Migraines are not just headaches,and can manifest differently from person to person. Migraine symptoms can include feeling depressed, light sensitivity, nauseousness, and fatigue. This can last for hours or even several days. Current modes of therapy can range from pharmaceutical options, nerve pain medication, magnetic brain stimulation, nasal sprays, botox injections, caffeine consumption, calcitonin monoclonal antibodies, stress management, biofeedback, yoga and meditation, consumption of vitamins/minerals, psychological therapy, as well as others. However, Mayo clinic states that clinical trials with patients who tried acupuncture had been helpful for headache pain caused by migraines (July 2023).
