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.
