Magnet therapy 'effective' against migraines

Magnet therapy can be used to treat some types of migraine, it has been revealed.

According to UK watchdog NICE, there is limited evidence that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) may help ease symptoms in some patients, the BBC reported.

The UK guidance said that although the procedure is still relatively new, it may be useful for patients for whom other treatments have failed.

It said that more data is needed about its long-term safety and efficacy.
