Migraine headaches can certainly harm your entire life. Outside of the pain, they can cause difficulty focusing, dealing with emotional issues, moving through normal daily tasks, and even talking to others. A migraine is no one’s friend, but you don’t have to resort to desperate measures to find relief. Our team at Revitalize Integrated Body Systems shares how chiropractic care can help safely and naturally.

Chiropractic Care Can Help

A migraine can be caused and triggered by many different things. These include stress, misalignment in the neck or back, blood vessel constriction, nerve compression, and more. Our family chiropractors will determine the root cause of the headache and develop a treatment plan customized to your needs. This plan can include several or even all of the following:

Adjustments: One of the most effective treatments a family chiropractor offers is adjustments. These adjustments use gentle force on areas of the body that have become misaligned. Once alignment is restored, it takes the pressure off the nerves, muscles, discs, and blood vessels – all of which could be related to your headaches.

Spinal decompression: If nerve compression is the root cause, decompression therapy can be utilized to gently stretch the spine from the neck to the lower back.

Therapeutic massage: When you’re stressed, your muscles become tense. The same can occur when there is a misalignment or other spinal issue. This tension can impact the flow of blood, leading to a migraine. Therapeutic massage helps relieve this tension.

Lifestyle guidance: Chiropractic care doesn’t end in the office. You will also receive recommendations on different exercises you can do to treat the cause of your pain, as well as nutritional guidance and advice on daily movements to eliminate the source.
