About 36 million Americans suffer from the debilitating headaches known as migraines, according to the Migraine Research Foundation. Women between the ages of 25 and 55 are the likeliest victims. Migraine headaches can last anywhere from a few hours to three days, drastically compromising individuals’ work, social, and family lives and often landing them in emergency rooms. Other issues may accompany the migraine such as nausea, visual disturbances, dizziness, tingling, and sensitivity to light, sound, smell, and touch. Many turn to chiropractors to give them headache and migraine relief.
Some sufferers turn to chiropractors for headache and migraine relief. Spinal manipulations lessened the severity and frequency of attacks in some clinical trial participants, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center.
Each individual's case is different and requires a thorough evaluation before a proper course of chiropractic care can be determined. However, in most cases of tension headaches and migraines, significant improvement is accomplished through manipulation of the upper two cervical vertebrae, coupled with adjustments to the junction between the cervical and thoracic spine. This is also helpful in most cases of migraine headaches, as long as food and lifestyle triggers are avoided as well.
If you suffer from migraines, call our clinic for migraine relief. A spinal adjustment could help your condition without the side effects of medications.
