What is a Migraine Headache?

A migraine headache is usually more intense than a typical headache is. If you suffer from a migraine, you may also have sensory warning signs such as sensitivity to light, nausea, or increased sensitivity to sounds. When you have a migraine, regular headache treatments and medications are not always effective. Migraine headaches that accompany neck pain, tension, or stiffness often respond well to chiropractic care. The pain from a migraine may last for days in which you are unable to live a regular life. If you are suffering from chronic migraine headaches, we may be able to help. Chiropractic care for migraines can be highly effective. Please give us a call to schedule your chiropractic appointment for migraine headaches.
