Migraine Treatment

“Burlington Migraine Treatment And Information For Area Migraine Sufferers”

If you are suffering from migraines, it is very important that you read this bit of text.

Many migraine sufferers unfortunately rely mostly on bed rest in a dark room & heavy medications for migraine pain relief.

And the reason I say unfortunately is that your migraines are not because you are taking enough or potent enough medication.

Aside form pathological causes such as brain tumors or problems with the arteries in your neck or brain, most migraines can be traced to either food intolerances or food allergies, & structural problems with the skull or neck.

What I mean by this, is that the sheets of bones that form your skull are all held together by something called sutures.

These are almost like a joint between the bones that allow the skull bones to move. Actually, they do move with your breath & flow of your cerebral-spinal fluid & they are supposed to.

This is normal.

Now, if you have suffered head trauma from a fall, a sports injury, a car accident, a concussion or your skull was traumatized during birth, the boney plates of your skull can become misaligned & stuck that way.

This can cause a multitude of health symptoms of which one of the more common is migraine headaches.

Also, the aforementioned trauma’s can cause misalignments of the 7 vertebrae that make up your neck ( cervical spine ).

Inside the neck portion of your spine is you brain stem.

This is a very important part of your nerve system as it coordinates & controls numerous bodily functions ( that is why it is also referred to as your “Houston Control” ) and if your brain stem is impaired by a poorly aligned neck, this can again cause a multitude of health problems of which migraines can be one.

The same thing can happen if any of the 7 vertebrae in your neck are misaligned.

This can happen as a result of the same trauma’s previously mentioned causing pinched nerves in your neck, and pinched nerves in your neck almost always result in some sort of headache migraines included.

Another source of migraines that many people do not realize is the jaw joint or TMJ.

This can often misalign from extensive dental surgery, reconstructive facial surgery, head trauma, and excessive clenching of the jaw or grinding of the teeth.

Many people hold their tension in the jaw & many people grind their teeth at nite; this is called bruxism.

Because chiropractic deals specifically with all the joints of the skeletal system ( our job is to re-align them to make sure they articulate & function properly ), treatments have proven to be hugely beneficial to those suffering from migraine headaches.

And most chiropractors would assist you in identifying any food substances that may be a contributing factor as well. If you are sick & tired of all the pain & suffering, & all the drugs ( which are just not good for you ), give chiropractic a try.

Safe, gentle treatments will help your body heal from the condition.

We will identify the cause of your migraine headaches, not just mask them with drugs & medications which really doesn’t do you any favors in the long run.
