Migraines and headaches are
two of the most common ailments that people suffer from every day. Migraines
are most notable by being on one side of the head and can be very painful, even
debilitating in nature. They are often associated with sensitivity to light,
sound, changes in vision, and nausea/vomiting. Migraines are often caused due
to an allergy or sensitivity, which then causes a neurological
"backlash" within the body. The best treatment for migraines is to
determine your specific migraine triggers and eliminate them. This is not
always possible. When this occurs, rest, cold packs and a visit to your
chiropractor will be extremely helpful.
The same goes for your regular every day headaches, also called Tension
Headaches. Normally caused by poor posture either from sitting or standing.
Keeping your head up straight and walking "tall" can decrease the
occurrence of tension headaches, along with regular visits to your
chiropractor.
Migraines and headaches cause swelling within the muscles, this swelling
creates a change within the spine, causing joints to move improperly. This
leads to further inflammation and pain. Correcting joint mobility and alignment
restores proper motion, decreasing inflammatory episodes and relieving pain.
