Acupuncture for Headaches and Migraines: The Natural Remedy

Hello, I'm Dr. Eileen Wei, a registered acupuncturist and traditional Chinese medicine doctor at Nose Creek Physiotherapy in Calgary. In my practice, I've had the privilege of helping many patients find relief from headaches and migraines.

Understanding Headaches and Migraines

Headaches and migraines can be debilitating, affecting your quality of life. They can be triggered by a variety of factors such as stress, poor sleep, weather changes, hormone imbalances, and even sinus congestion. Pain and stiffness in the neck and shoulders, menstrual cycles, and head injuries can also contribute to these conditions.

Many patients have tried using different kinds of painkillers to manage their pain. However, these medications often come with side effects like upset stomach, drowsiness, dizziness, and a feeling of heaviness in the head. Moreover, they may not always work for everyone.

The Power of Acupuncture

This is where acupuncture comes in. Unlike painkillers, acupuncture addresses the root cause contributing to headaches or migraines. It's a natural and effective way to relieve these conditions, offering a holistic approach to pain management.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body, helping to balance the body's energy, or "Qi". This stimulation can help to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. It's a time-tested method that has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine.
