Natural Migraine Relief Through Upper Cervical Care
Gentle, Precise Chiropractic Treatment Designed to Target the Root Cause of Migraines
Migraine headaches include pulsating head pain, light/sound sensitivity, nausea/vomiting, and fatigue. In addition to these physical symptoms, many migraine patients also experience anxiety, depression, and withdrawal from social activities due to the fear of having an attack.
Women are 3x more likely to experience migraine headaches, and 70-80% if migraine sufferers have a family member who also gets migraines. Common triggers include hormones, food sensitivities/intolerances, neck posture and movement, and stress.
The impact of migraines goes well beyond the pain. Being drained of your energy, behind at work and home, and overwhelmed with the total experience take a toll on quality of life.
While there are effective medications for certain types of migraines, many patients experience negative side effects and seek alternative options. I hear from migraine patients all of the time, “I just want to know why I’m getting migraines, and then what my treatment options are.”
Thankfully, There Is A Solution To Your Migraines
Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care is a safe, gentle, and effective way to find migraine relief naturally. Using a thorough consultation and evaluation process, we can identify if an unresolved neck issue is at the heart of your headache experience.
Common signs that Upper Cervical Dysfunction may be causing your headaches:
- Neck pain precedes headache episodes
- Head/neck movement is not symmetrical side-to-side
- You experience frequent (2-4x/month) neck, shoulder, or back pain
- You have a history of neck trauma, such as a car accident, concussion, sports injury, high-impact fall, etc.
How Upper Cervical Chiropractic Can Relieve Migraine Pain
- Upper Cervical Care focuses on precise adjustments to the neck (cervical spine) without twisting or popping.
- Upper Cervical Care restores natural alignment and movement to relieve chronic muscle tension in the neck
- Upper Cervical Care desensitizes the muscle and nerve tissue near the base of the skull
- Upper Cervical Care reduces postural imbalances that limit your body's ability to handle stress
