Headaches can range from being a minor frustration to becoming a severe chronic health issue, and can be caused by a variety of factors, such as tension, stress, food allergies, and eye strain. Acupuncture can be used as a drug-free remedy for headaches and migraines of all kinds, offering a safe, effective, solution with no negative interactions with other treatments. It’s thought that acupuncture may improve pain by stimulating changes to serotonin metabolism, as serotonin appears to be linked to the frequency and severity of headaches and migraines. Regular acupuncture sessions can be part of your holistic headache treatment plan!
