“Peri-neural Electrical Dry Needling Migraine Treatment Study”
This study seeks to determine the effectiveness of a specific treatment protocol using dry needling with perineural electrical stimulation in comparison to standard treatment in physical therapy for patients with migraine headaches. This will be a randomized cross-over study in which participants will be in the first arm of the study, have a washout period, then cross over to the other arm of the study.

Procedure - Perineural electrical dry needling
Standard care plus use of perineural electrical dry needling involving use of a monofilament needle of 15 or 30 mm length, 0.25 mm diameter will be placed utilizing the therapist's dominant hand following palpation of correct needle location. An electrical stimulation unit will be used to conduct an electrical impulse. The unit used will be an ES-130 by ITO (Japan) using a DC 9V battery producing an asymmetrical biphasic waveform. The unit has 6 available leads with alligator clamps, connecting ...read more on ClinicalTrials.org
