Acupuncture for Migraines, Headaches & Pain Relief
You Don’t Have to Live With Pain
If you’re dealing with migraines, headaches, or ongoing aches and pains, it doesn’t have to be your “new normal.”
Acupuncture is a natural, drug-free therapy that helps relieve many types of pain, from migraines and headaches to back pain, neck pain, joint pain, arthritis, and muscle tension. Other Chinese medicine therapies—such as cupping, moxibustion, and Chinese herbal medicine—are often used alongside acupuncture to support deeper, longer-lasting relief.
Does It Really Work?
Yes. Research shows acupuncture reduces chronic pain across the board—not just headaches.
Large studies have found acupuncture to be more effective than placebo treatments and comparable to medication for pain relief, often with fewer side effects.
How Acupuncture Helps Pain
Acupuncture works by calming the nervous system and activating your body’s natural painkillers. It improves circulation, reduces inflammation, and helps quiet pain signals—allowing the body to heal and reset.
People often report less pain, better movement, improved sleep, and reduced stress.
Is It Safe?
Yes. Acupuncture is very safe when performed by a licensed practitioner using sterile, single-use needles. Side effects are rare and mild.
The Bottom Line
Pain doesn’t have to run your life. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine offer real relief for many people. In my practice, I’ve seen patients whose pain—and migraines—have completely resolved.
