Understanding Migraines
A migraine is a neurological condition characterized by intense, often debilitating headaches typically felt as a throbbing or pulsing pain on one side of the head. It can last anywhere from a few hours to several days and is often accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and extreme sensitivity to light and sound. Some individuals experience warning signs called aura, which can include visual disturbances or sensory changes before the headache begins. While the exact cause is not fully understood, migraines are believed to result from abnormal brain activity affecting nerve signals, blood vessels, and chemicals. They can be triggered by factors like stress, hormonal changes, certain foods, or lack of sleep.
How Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care Can Help
Upper cervical chiropractic care focuses on correcting misalignments in the uppermost vertebrae of the spine, specifically the atlas (C1) and axis (C2), which support the head and protect the brainstem. Misalignments in this region can disrupt normal nerve function, impair blood flow to the brain, and create muscular tension, all of which are common contributors to migraines. By gently and precisely realigning the upper cervical spine, this approach aims to restore proper communication between the brain and body, reduce inflammation, and alleviate the root causes of migraines. Many patients report significant reductions in the frequency and severity of their migraines after upper cervical adjustments, making it a natural and non-invasive alternative to traditional migraine treatments.
