I have frequent bouts with terrible tension headaches that often end up turning into migraine headaches if not taken care of in the early stages. I am a firm believer of acupuncture and I have found that if I receive a treatment within the first few hours of the headache I get substantial pain relief and am able to carry on with my normal day. It only takes about 30 minutes for the headache to disappear and for my neck and shoulders to relax. Toni also taught me several pressure points on my body that I can simulate when I feel the headache starting in case I canʼt get in for a treatment. I want to say that the treatment is not scary or painful at all. Most of the time you can’t even feel the needles being inserted, and if you do it is only like a little tiny sting and gone immediately. I would say the hardest thing about a treatment is sitting or lying still for 30 minutes.
