Research from Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine suggests that acupuncture may reduce migraines by calming inflammation, improving brain energy balance, and resetting pain pathways.
This study demonstrates that acupuncture is more than a placebo — it produces measurable changes in both the body and the brain.
It helps explain why acupuncture can reduce migraine symptoms in many people.
While the study was small and short-term, the results are very encouraging.
