Acupuncture for Headaches and Migraine
If you suffer from headaches or migraines, you can find relief without resorting to prescription or over-the-counter medications, which often have side effects. For thousands of years, acupuncture has been used to relieve headaches and migraines, as well as their underlying causes.
Our south Dublin city acupuncture clinic offers a safe and effective approach to relieving headache pain without causing harmful side effects.
Causes Of Headaches
There are many factors that play a key role in the root causes of a headache. These include body constitution, emotional health, excessive work, social activities and exercise, improper diet, physical trauma and hormones. Headaches can also be diagnosed according to specific symptoms, times of occurrence, location, type of pain, and triggers.
Relief with Acupuncture
Acupuncture takes a holistic approach to health, focusing on the whole body. We’ll conduct a detailed health history and examination to identify the root cause of your headaches and determine the most effective treatment.
Here are a few simple lifestyle changes that may help alleviate or even prevent headaches:
– Track your triggers: Keep a diary of when your headaches start. Migraine sufferers may find it especially helpful to note symptoms, as certain foods and hormonal changes can be possible causes.
– Manage stress: Stress can contribute to many health concerns, including headaches. We can discuss healthy ways to manage stress with you.
– Exercise regularly: Physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle and can be a great antidote to stress.
– Adopt healthy habits: Eat healthy foods, stay hydrated, and try to get enough sleep each night.
– Consider acupuncture care: Acupuncture is extremely effective in naturally reducing the frequency and severity of many painful conditions, including headaches and migraines. By working with us and making some simple changes, you’ll be on your way to saying goodbye to headaches.
The length of treatment usually varies from three to eight sessions or more, depending on the severity of your condition. Many patients begin to feel improvement after a session or two.
