Yes. Acupuncture has been shown to greatly relieve migraines and their symptoms. Acupuncture needles are often painless and treatments are very relaxing. Chinese herbs, prescribed by experienced practitioners of Chinese Medicine, can also be very beneficial in reducing and/or eliminating migraines. Because Chinese Medicine seeks to treat the root of an illness, not just to mask symptoms and discomfort, the variety of causes contributing to migraine headaches will be addressed by your acupuncturist.
Chiropractors are excellent at treating headaches by adjusting your spine. Seeing that the spinal cord is the entire length of your back, tailbone to skull, one tiny subluxation can disrupt something (blood flow, nerves) giving you headaches. I also recommend it because my mother and I both had similar problems which a chiropractor had fixed. My mother sees one about twice a year now, and I haven't seen one since I was a teenager.

A holistic chiropractor can help with chronic headaches. Another approach to get headache relief is through acupuncture. There are also over the counter and prescription drugs to help with headaches.
There is limited scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of Gatorade in alleviating migraine symptoms. While staying hydrated can help with headaches, Gatorade may not specifically target migraine symptoms. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional for proper migraine treatment.
It helped with my mood swings and mine were absolutely terrible! I am not sure about migraines though. I don't get them.
Some migraine headaches are so severe one needs to have a doctor to look at them. It can help to be in a dark room with a sleeping mask on. Ask your family if they can go out for the day while you are alone in your room. Sometimes children can be loud and that can be hard on your migraine.
the major types are migraine with aura and migraine without aura. hemiplegic migraine, abdominal migraine. retinal migraine, ophthalmoplegic migraine and basilar artery migraine are the other varieties..
Intense headaches which involve auras indicate migraine headaches. Migraine headaches are a neurological disorder involving inflammation of the nerves and blood vessels in the brain. Migraine pain is usually on one side of the head and is throbbing or stabbing in nature. Not all migraines have auras; common migraine is migraine without aura, classic migraine is considered migraine with aura. Each episode can last anywhere from 4-72 hours and can be set off by many things. People who have auras, which refers to a temporary visual disturbance, usually have them right before the pain sets in or early in the headache. Each patient has their own unique set of migraine triggers. Finding out what your triggers are can help you minimize how many migraines you get. If you are getting more than two a month, you qualify to receive preventative medication.
There is evidence that migraines have a genetic component, particularly in certain specific sub-types of migraine (eg, familial hemiplegic migraine). This does not mean, however, that people who do not have a family history of migraine cannot be diagnosed as experiencing migraine headaches.
No. It is not normal to have a migraine every day. It is important, however, to be sure that you are correct in your self-diagnosis. Migraine is a very specific type of headache. It is possible to have daily migraines. Your doctor can help you determine if you do, indeed, have chronic daily migraine headaches. If you do, there are medications that can decrease the number of attacks you have, and other medications that can be fairly effective at stopping the migraines you continue to have with treatment. Two more common cause of daily headaches are (1) withdrawal and (2) rebound headaches. Withdrawal headaches can occur whenever your body is hungering for any number of drugs or substances. Going too long without your daily dose of caffeine or nicotine can trigger a headache as your body tries to tell you that it is time to dose up. These must be addressed by slowly decreasing your intake of that substance, a process sometimes known as "detoxification" or "detox". Rebound headaches are similar, but happen in response to withdrawal from an anti-headache medicine. These classically occur during withdrawal from narcotics, but are actually more common as a result of withdrawal from ibuprofen, acetaminophen (Tylenol), and other over-the-counter headache medications.
