Daith Ear Piercing is a recent addition to potential treatments for migraines. The piercing, which was first invented in 1992, goes through the cartilage of the inner helix of the ear, and originally it was just done for cosmetic reasons. However people started reporting that their migraines were improved after they had had it done. 2 years ago it went viral after Dr Thomas Cohn, a respected pain doctor in the USA, mentioned it on his blog. Since then thousands of people have had it done
Although their effects are not yet proven there is some evidence that it can help with migraines. There are many unanswered questions, and more research is needed, so Dr Chris Blatchley has started an online survey for people who have already had a Daith Ear Piercing for Migraines
