- HOW IS ACUPUNCTURE EFFECTIVE IN MIGRAINE TREATMENT?
Migraine has almost become the disease of our age. In the fast-paced city life where everything is consumed rapidly, mental stress is inevitable. Emotions develop, which creates a very suitable basis for the opportunism of migraine.
No matter how much we try to define migraine here, those who experience it know it. There are as many migraine types as there are migraine patients in the world. Because each patient experiences his or her disease in a special and unique way. Therefore, no matter what medical treatment is used, we, as doctors, must always take this fact into consideration so that we can apply the most appropriate treatment strategy to our patient.
In all diseases that progress with pain. The brain has a habit of recording the current pain. Especially in chronic diseases such as migraine, pain information is recorded in the cerebral cortex. This recorded information is like a file in the drawer, and as long as it is in the drawer, it can only be used with painkillers (analgesic) treatment approaches. The current disease cannot be overcome. If we want to achieve a radical clinical effect; first of all, the pain information recorded unnecessarily must be deleted as much as possible. If this can be achieved, then pain relief (analgesic) information can be very easily and This should be the most basic goal and strategy of migraine treatment. If we can achieve such an approach, then we can mostly overcome migraine and get permanent clinical results.
We can achieve the goal and strategy we mentioned above. Is there a treatment modality, then?..Yes, there is: ACUPUNCTURE.
Acupuncture means the body's innate biological medicines (endogenous pharmacology), It means treating the existing disease and helping the body heal it with its own pharmacy. Since we activate the body's original medicines, the existing disease can be cured without any side effects without giving any external chemical drugs.
Migraine treatment with acupuncture has very satisfactory results. Since it is a chronic disease, a treatment of 15 sessions is planned and the sessions are applied twice a week. At the end of the session, the needles are removed from the ear. All of the ear acupuncture points are removed. In ear acupuncture, the acupuncture points in the ear are detected with a digital electronic device called a detector that measures the electrical potential of the points, and the points that have deviated from the neutral position and become pathological are needled with gold or silver needles according to their electrical load. These needles are kept for approximately 20 minutes. All of them are removed so that none of them remain in the ear at the end of the session. This detection (spot scan) that I mentioned must be done regardless of the disease, and needles must be inserted after it is done.
In the acupuncture treatment applied in migraine cases. Neuronal stimulations resulting from needling applied to acupuncture points first ensure that the pain information recorded by the brain is erased as much as the body allows, and then analgesic information is loaded. Thus, the brain is, in a sense, returned to factory settings. .
While all these positive pharmacological effects occur with acupuncture treatment, no side effects occur on the body. Therefore, due to the activation of the body's natural medicine systems; It is always possible to apply acupuncture, which is a drug-free, side-effectless treatment, safely in all cases diagnosed with migraine and to get permanent clinical results.
We all have the right to a quality life without migraine and pain...
