piercings to cure migraines?

[amina]

Hi everyone

recently i came across a post online that said getting your ear pierced at a specific position could cure migraines based on its corresponding to an acupuncture point. I just wondered how much truth their is to that, and whether piercing permanently in that area is a reasonable substitute to getting acupuncture or whether it might cause any long term implications? similarly, are there any other points where piercing is/ isn’t a good idea?

thanks in advance!

generally piercing isnt a good idea when you are aware the body energy needs to flow a certain way. but if you aren’t aware, you are likely never to know what happened.

that’s not really going to help. its a premature thought.

okay, that makes sense. thanks for your help guys.

btw, this was the article that i saw about it if anyone was interested. It does have different people saying different things though so i was curious as to how much of it was just the placebo effect.

Do you suffer with migraines and headaches? A daith piercing could be the cure
