Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: To compare recent domestic and overseas research trends about acupuncture therapies on migraines.
Method: Case reports and randomized controlled trials were searched via Pubmed. Searches were limited to publications between 2012 and 2017.
Results: Four case reports and twelve randomized controlled trials were searched from Pubmed. Research showed that acupuncture therapies are more significantly effective than other therapies, such as sham acupunctures and Western medicines.
Conclusion: There has been more active overseas research about acupuncture therapies on migraine compared to domestic studies. To examine the efficacy and suitability of acupuncture therapies on Koreans with migraines, domestic studies and research should be conducted more actively.
