A migraine is a disorder characterized by recurrent headaches that could be from moderate to severe pain. The headaches normally affect one-half of the head, are pulsating in nature, and last from a few hours to 3 days. Other symptoms could be present with the headache as nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to sounds, light or smells, normally getting relief by rest.



For people that suffer frequent migraines, acupuncture works as an alternative to prevent migraines, normally the treatment involves inserting very fine needles, into the face and head, and other chosen points in the Chinese meridian restoring the balance to the body.
