Acupuncture treatment eases headaches

Acupuncture may bring some added pain relief to people with chronic headaches, according to new research.

The study by German researchers is one of the largest to date on using acupuncture to ease headaches.

The researchers said acupuncture patients reported greater pain improvements than those who stayed with their usual care only. At the start of the study, they reported an average of 8.4 headache days over three months, which dropped to 4.7 by the time the study ended.
