Lethbridge just might be the migraine capital of the world. Many people struggle with our constantly shifting weather systems and barometric pressure changes. And it certainly doesn’t help that life seems as stressful as ever these days, contributing to muscle tension, tension headaches, and even migraines. These can be debilitating and require constant management, often via pills or even injection, that are generally accompanied by unwanted side-effects.

There is a better way!

I blend traditional techniques like acupuncture with cutting edge technologies like cold laser therapy to maximize migraine relief and minimize clinic visits. Traditional acupuncture, often with cupping therapy, has yielded amazing results over the years for headache and migraine relief. But the addition of Cold Laser Therapy and has been a game changer, resulting in even better, longer lasting results for my patients. I find this synergistic combination of therapies to be generally be the most effective approach, however, for patients who are needle averse, Cold Laser Therapy on it’s own can be an effective and completely pain-free alternative.

Treatment options:

• Acupuncture PLUS Cold Laser Therapy: Our signature and most recommended treatment option. This synergistic combination provides the MOST potent, effective, and long-lasting treatment option even for stubborn cases of all types of headaches and migraines
• Acupuncture (only): Time-tested and proven over thousands of years, this traditional modality yields great results for most patients.
• Acupuncture PLUS cupping: Generally this combination works better for tension headaches than migraines.
• Cold Laser Therapy (only): This is a great needle-free alternative. Cold Laser Therapy is proven to be effective with thousands of published studies so far, extremely safe, and entirely pain free

Where to start?

If you are able, the best time to treat migraines and headaches is while you have one! Usually we can get rid of or at least greatly reduce them within the initial visit. This also gives us instant feedback that we are on the right track and that your body is responding to the treatment, instead of waiting around to see if the frequency and severity of headaches decreases over the coming days and weeks. Book an Initial Consultation and we will go over all your symptoms and together develop a dynamic treatment plan best-suited to your needs. You have final say over all treatment options, but I will make recommendations based on my knowledge and clinical experience as to what will likely give you the best results.
