As many as 46% of people cope with an active headache issue. This includes the 10-12% of those living with migraines in America. Migraines affect women more often than men and can cause one to be unable to perform regular daily activities.

The Reality of Migraines

Migraines also affect one’s financial situation. Many find that the only way to find some semblance of relief is to go to the emergency department for care. This often leads to expensive testing, such as CT scans and MRIs, to rule out other conditions and properly diagnose migraines. Then there are a variety of ways to alleviate pain – over-the-counter or prescription meds and surgery to mention just a few. All of these add to the financial burden.

One woman reported that she spent over $5,600 on her migraines. However, relief never came. Sadly, most ways to cope with migraines fall short because they are covering up symptoms rather than addressing the root of migraine pain.

 

Alleviating Migraine Pain Through Spinal Alignment

Here at Source Chiropractic and Wellness, we take an alternative approach to helping patients with migraine pain. Upper cervical chiropractic is cost-effective, long-lasting, and is non-invasive. Does that sound too good to be true?

A case study was conducted involving 101 people suffering from migraines or other headache types. After receiving upper cervical chiropractic care, all of them reported seeing a significant improvement in symptoms. What does upper cervical chiropractic this involve?

It starts with the use of technology to help examine a patient’s neck. We specifically look at the C1 and C2 vertebrae because if they are misaligned by only ¼ of a millimeter, they can be the source of migraines. A misalignment here can place stress on the brainstem causing it to malfunction. Proper signals and blood flow to and from the brain are hindered.

Next, we use a gentle method to help the bones realign naturally. Once this is done, many patients report seeing improvement in their headaches or migraines in a short amount of time. Some see them go away entirely.
