I have recently discovered a very effective treatment for migraine. A neurologiist Dr Yamamoto in Japan developed New Scalp Acupuncture to treat neurological disorders eg Parkinsons, MS and stroke. Only medical people are trained in this style of acupuncture. My GP has twice stopped migraine using this method. He places usually 3 special, long acupuncture needles in the scalp. For me it takes about 30 minutes for the migraine to go. At first I feel relaxation for neck and shoulder muscles, then gradually the pain eases. I've also been told that if you can be given oxygen soon after the onset of migraine it will stop the pain. One of my doctors gave me a note of the local hospital to be given 30 mins oxygen on presentation with a migraine. Research supports this hewever I've never tried this treatment.
