First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether acupuncture can reduce migraine pain and lower signs of inflammation and brain stress in the blood. Researchers will compare three types of gentle stimulation: laser, electro, and traditional acupuncture. 75 adults with migraines will receive treatment, and their pain levels and blood markers will be checked three months later. The goal is to find a safe, drug-free option to help people feel better.
