Sometimes it is because this condition can seriously affect family and working life. Migraines can be extremely debilitating and unpredictable, showing no distinct pattern. Sometimes they are
triggered by stress or by disruption of sleep patterns. Quite often as I work with my patients I am able to see a common pattern in the occurrence of symptoms where my patient has not, and I am
able to pitch the treatment accordingly.
If you decide to begin a course of acupuncture, I will initially ask you to see me weekly until we have established a reduction in the level of attacks. At this stage we will work towards
gradually spacing out your treatments until only the occasional 'top up' is required. I will not ask you to stop your medication if you are reliant on it, as I have found that my patients do
this of their own accord once they are experiencing the benefit of acupuncture.
