Chiropractic Care for Migraines

Chiropractic care and physical therapy have been shown to provide pain relief to people suffering from tension headaches, sinus headaches, and migraine pain.

With chiropractic care, our goal is to address the root cause of your headaches so you can find long-lasting relief. Many people turn to painkillers to mask their headache pain, but if you don’t fix the underlying cause, they will keep coming back.

Chiropractic treatments help by making adjustments to the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. Realigning the spine increases your body’s mobility, which can be impacted by migraines.

Issues with compressed or pinched nerves can also be factors, and chiropractic care is known to improve the function of the nervous system.

Physical therapy treatments help by implementing fitness and wellness programs under the direction of our physical therapists. With a therapeutic plan, your body can get back to a healthier lifestyle, increase strength, and reduce sources of pressure that are associated with your migraines.

Long-term relief is most likely when therapy is combined with changes to lifestyle. Our doctors will provide you with a guide for diet and exercise so that you can take control of your overall wellness.
