Daith piercings look beautiful on any ear, but also have potential benefits you may not have heard of! Keep reading to find out more.
What’s a daith piercing?
A daith piercing is near the innermost cartilage fold of a person’s ear. For most people, you’ll pierce through the thickest part of the ear cartilage. Daith piercings have some great benefits and also look great.
Hidden benefits
According to professionals, a daith piercing may help ease migraine and some anxiety related symptoms. Your ear is home to many pressure points, which target the vagus nerve. The vagus nerve is the longest of the 10 nerves, from the bottom of the brain to the rest of your body. Getting a daith piercing may put pressure on this nerve, cause simulation, and relieve some symptoms.
Treatment of anxiety and migraine-related symptoms has not been scientifically proven – however, it’s worth a try & looks great!
