Most of the people have come to develop a keen interest in the daith puncturing maybe because of the aesthetics it enhances to a persons appearance. In the past nine months, the interest has been skyrocketing more so the
body piercing Toronto and its environs. It has come to attention that it could cure migraines.
It would be safe for anyone to assume that after so many years of expansion in the industry that at least one person from the crowd would have come out with a personal confession saying something like, You know friend, I have been suffering from migraines until recently. The puncturing must have fixed me!. That has never come up until now.
These occurrences can be entirely explained by the basis confirmation theory. It contains a lot of unfound facts that nobody cares to consider. Talk about a placebo effect. All that individuals care to know is that once a person is done with the procedure, he is healed.
The confirmation bias in this situation could have worked like this; A piercer has a hypothesis that the particular piercing can cure migraines. The person then tells that to the clients, how overwhelmingly many customers claim it has helped them. He/she ignores the evidence that does not support the hypothesis. The population could as well be a placebo. Those who due to circumstances are led to believe they have the condition, although a doctor has never confirmed it.
That is the reason all experiments are set up with a control in place. Placebos are also used. Those scheduled to collect the information do not know who get the placebo and who got the real medication. The results are not just a confirmation of the experimenters bias. And that is the reason why conducting a proper study done topically is of importance. To protect everyone from being coloured by biases.
It is still important to know that nobody can be blamed for being excited about this. It is nobodys fault that science reporting is done wrong these days. Thanks to the bad science. The people who are writing about the health science more so in this issue, are getting it all wrong. Going through a recently published book called the bad science can enlighten one on the same.
Possibly it could be that they have never seen anyone with a migraine condition when triggered. They may be thinking that it is a headache that they experience when they are hungry or tired. What is being referred to, in this situation is where a person becomes temporarily blind and throws up all over the place uncontrollably.
Therefore, the people spreading these unfound claims should realize how much power they wield over these desperate populations. Such people need to be well protected from the rigorous skeptical journalism. Suggesting such things like they can be able to treat a migraine is totally misleading and is playing with their emotion. For all piercers, it is of utmost importance to approach such issues with the highest ethical standards. And for those writing blogs and articles, they should refrain from writing articles such as this.
