Why Do We Get Migraine Headaches?

If you suffer from migraine headaches, you know how debilitating they can be. The intense pain and sensitivity to light and sound make it impossible to function normally. While many migraine treatments are available, they often only provide temporary relief. By realigning the spine and releasing tension in the muscles of the head and neck, chiropractic care can help to alleviate migraine and can help to prevent future migraine attacks by keeping the spine in alignment and reducing stress on the nervous system.

A common cause of migraines or headaches are interferences in the nervous system, also called subluxation. It reduces your neck motion and the blood supply to the head. Though often due to stress or bad posture, there are many other sources:

Anxiety
Depression
Food
Insomnia
Noise
Teeth clenching

With chiropractic care, subluxations are removed, directly addressing the root of the pain instead of masking symptoms with medication.

Our neurologically based approach is complemented by looking at lifestyle factors that may be contributing to your pain. Together, these aspects can let you live free from migraines with the body functioning as it was intended to.

Can Spinal Misalignment Cause Migraines?

Migraine headaches are often due to changes in the brain’s serotonin level. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that helps to regulate mood, pain, and other functions. When serotonin levels are off balance, it can trigger a migraine headache. Some researchers believe spinal misalignment can cause problems with the flow of serotonin in the brain, leading to migraines.

Spinal misalignment can also cause problems with blood flow and nerve function. Both of these can contribute to migraines. If you suffer from migraines, it’s worth considering whether spinal misalignment might contribute. In some cases, correcting the alignment can help prevent migraine headaches.

Which Chiropractic Therapy is Best for Migraine?

Chiropractic therapy provides a natural way to treat a migraine. Several different types of chiropractic therapy can be effective for migraines, but the best one for you will depend on the cause of your migraines. If your migraines are caused by muscle tension, for example, Swedish massage or trigger point therapy may be helpful. Chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy may be recommended if a misalignment causes migraines in the spine. Cranial adjustments are also an option if your migraines are due to stress or tension in the jaw. Talk to your chiropractor about which type of therapy is best for you.
