Migraines

A migraine is more than a bad headache. It is a neurological condition that usually causes moderate to severe throbbing pain, often on one side of the head, and can come with nausea, sensitivity to light and sound, or visual changes. Attacks can last from a few hours to several days.

Common triggers include stress, poor sleep, hormonal changes, certain foods and drinks, and muscle tension in the neck and shoulders.

Our Chiropractors Will

• Review your headache history, examine your neck and upper back, and take X-rays if needed.

• Use adjustments, soft-tissue work, massage and acupuncture to ease the neck and shoulder tension that can contribute to attacks.

• Help you identify triggers and discuss posture, sleep and stress habits.

If you have a sudden, severe headache, or a headache with weakness, confusion or vision loss, seek emergency care right away.
