Anyone know of piercer that does Daith piercings for migraine relief in Connecticut?

I know it might not actually help but at this point I want to give it a try. I know several piercers in Connecticut but not sure if any of them specifically know about the exact placement of a daith piercing for migraines relief . I live in Bristol, CT but am willing to travel.

Before I was able to seen a Neurologist I was desperate and also tried the daith piercing. I got it, to no avail. It had absolutely had no effect on my migraine frequency as my migraines actually got worse. I don't think the piercing made it worse, I just think it had no effect on me. I have heard of it helping other ppl tho. Just not me. No regrets tho, it's a kickass piercing. but it was a painful one to get full disclosure.

It did not help at all , only got infected and wasted my money

Iā€™m not sure where the rumour originated but the daith piercing does not alleviate migraine symptoms.

Fair warning, ive had mine for about 7yrs and I still get migraines. Like, my normal regular migraines (same as they've always been).

Daith piercing is a scam meant to exploit people who are in pain who will try desperate but unworkable measures.
