If you suffer migraines you know how intense the pain can be. It's so bad you wish you could cut your head off.

Some are saying that this special daith piercing will fight migraines and other headache pain.

A friend of mine shared this post from Kay Clark on her facebook page over the weekend as she, as well as myself, suffer from terrible migraines and regularly occurring headaches.

 

So on Tuesday I had my Daith pierced after hearing it can be a cure for headaches & migranes. I have suffered with them...

Although there isn't enough studies done to prove if this is an actual cure for migraines there are many that have said it has significantly reduced or even eliminated the migraines.

According to MN Physical Medicine it stated that "people who have received a Daith piercing have coincidentally found improvement with their migraine headaches. It is not universal, and it is has not been studied formally. The correlation is based on the success for some people with acupuncture in the same region of the Daith piercing.

If a person enjoys ear piercing and suffers from frequent headaches, it may be worthwhile to consider getting this spot pierced. Since body piercings are generally less than $100, this may be a very economical treatment alternative. If you suffer migraines and are very unsure whether you want a piercing, trying acupunture first would be a good alternative to determine if this treatment may be successful. If this is not working, and the migraines are not being well managed, further discussions with your medical practitioner about treatment options is warranted."

Hmmm... you know I'm seriously considering doing this. I mean honestly what do I have to lose? Just a few bucks out of my pocket, possibly a sore ear for a few days, but heck if it gets rid of those nasty, head splitting almost want to vomit headaches I'm all for it.

What about you? Would you do be willing to do this?
