It is hard to tell you exactly where the point is for migraines in this forum. I suggest you seek a good acupuncturist and ask them to show you.
Migraines can be caused by different patterns, so it would be important to be assessed by an acupuncturist. Acupuncture is very effective in treating migraines.
there are many acupuncture points for migraines, it depends on why you have a migraine. also it requires a diagnosis process to understand why you are getting migraines. I recommend finding a practitioner you like and scheduling an appointment
Tai Yang( the sun points located behind your eye Conner) Du 20( located on the top of your head), GB 20, LI 4
There are several points can be treat for migraine, some are located on head, some on body, some on hand, some on feet.
Migraine is a symptom not the root of the problem. various patients can have headaches or migraine but the treatment may vary and the acupuncture points may vary according to the root of the problem.
There is no single acupuncture point for migraines. Depending on what symptoms you have, it will be a combination of points to treat your headaches.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine do not work as conventional medicine does. Chinese medicine recognizes 6 or 7 different kinds of headaches and without knowing specifically which one *you* are experiencing, I cannot give you any points that might prove useful. Acupuncture is generally a very good treatment choice for headache and migraine. If you'd like to try acupuncture for your issue, go see a local board-certified and state licensed acupuncturist. You can start with NCCAOM.org's 'Find a Practitioner' lookup if you need help finding someone local.
