Migraines treatment may vary from person to person. It is highly recommended that the migraine sufferer finds which of the available treatment suit them best. These migraines treatments include methods such as chiropractic joint manipulation, aromatherapy, acupuncture, massage, acupressure and feverfew supplements.

Acupuncture and Acupressure

Acupuncture is one alternative to migraine treatment that has proven popular. It is still not clear why acupuncture has been so successful. It is believed that endorphins can be released when acupuncture points stimulate the brain. Or that regular treatment can stabilize the brain's serotonin levels. Research has shown that acupuncture can be used to prevent migraines and reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.

Acupressure is similar in concept to acupuncture but uses pressure points to stimulate the nerves instead of needles. This has the advantage that, once you have been trained, you can administer pressure points massage yourself as soon as your migraine symptoms are apparent.

Chiropractic Joint Manipulation

The spine is manipulated to treat migraines. To reduce tension and joint manipulation can be used to treat migraine headaches. This home treatment for migraines may take 2 to 3 sessions per week in order to provide the relief many claim.

Many herbal remedies claim to relieve headache pain. The substance in Feverfew is parthenolide. This stops the body from producing the chemical agents that dilate the blood vessels.
