How does acupuncture help with migraines?

Acupuncture helps relax tight neck and scalp muscles, improve blood flow, 
and balance nerve signals that amplify pain.

By easing inflammation and stress responses, many people see fewer attacks
and easier recovery when one shows up.

What causes migraines?

• Stress and neck or jaw tension.
• Hormonal changes around cycles.
• Poor posture or long hours on screens.
• Food and drink triggers like alcohol or aged cheeses.
• Irregular sleep or dehydration.
• Bright lights, strong smells, or loud noise.
