Acupuncture, is a treatment that has been applied to headaches within the study of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Acupuncture is often used to treat migraine headaches, and is also used for tension headaches, cluster headaches, post-traumatic headaches, and disease-related headaches that might be due to sinus problems, high blood pressure or sleeping disorders. While some headache medications can have serious side effects and are often unsuccessful, TCM is a natural alternative. Unlike synthetic drugs, acupuncture has virtually no side effects, and is less invasive than surgery.
