Has Anyone Tried Daith Piercing? Since I’ve Tried Everything To Get Rid Of Migraines I Was Wondering If I Should Try This?

I have a daith piercing in both ears and it has done nothing but be fashionable. I was hoping it end my pain immediately only to get compliments on how cute it looks. Pain remains. It works different for everyone. In my case just a fashion statement.

I’ve had my Daith pierced several times. I found that it gradually loses its effectiveness in about six months, so I switched to the other ear. My migraines and cluster headaches are predominantly on my right side and the Daith on the right gave me the best results. I hope that this helps!
I still get the best results from Botox therapy.

Thanks so much for responding. They say it’s really painful, it can’t be as painful as constant migraines!

I had mine done and unfortunately need to do it again. I works for some people, some others. My mom went from having chronic migraines to non after her daith. I have chronic migrined and only difference i saw was that it reduced pressure and reduced the amount of 10s i had.
