You can get a daith piercing done in one or both ears. Some advocates of daith piercing suggest that it should be done on the ear which is on the side of the part of your head that pains the most during a migraine. Thus, if you get a left-sided migraine more often, get the piercing done on your left ear.
Simply so, does it matter which ear you get the Daith piercing?
In theory, yes — it does matter what side the piercing is on. Get the piercing on the side of your head where your anxiety-related pain tends to cluster. If you‘re not trying to treat anxiety-related migraines, it doesn’t make a difference which side of your head you get the piercing on.
Similarly one may ask, does piercing inner ear help migraines?
There’s no proof that daith piercings affect your pain receptors or reduce migraine pain. In fact, the piercing may damage the spot where acupuncture would be performed to stimulate, not poke through, this pressure point.
What piercing helps you lose weight?
Proponents of ear stapling claim that the staples stimulate a pressure point that controls appetite, leading to weight loss. Small surgical staples are placed into the inner cartilage of each ear.
Does the piercing for migraines work?
The pressure points in the ear are in very specific locations and would need to be identified by a trained acupuncturist to ensure the piercing was in the right spot. Even then, there’s no scientific evidence that suggests daith piercings are effective in treating migraine symptoms.
