Yes. However, if you are attending a complementary practitioner, you should always inform your doctor. Complementary therapies such as Biofeedback, Physiotherapy and relaxation therapy are well respected within the medical profession as treatment for migraine, while individuals also report that treatments such as acupuncture, reiki, homeopathy and herbal remedies may be beneficial in augmenting a drug treatment strategy. It is important to know that there are other alternatives out there to drug treatments. Always check the credentials of complementary practitioners before undergoing treatment and approach the treatment with the same caution and judgement that you would with any drug treatment.
