Chiropractic and Migraines

It's another perfect February afternoon.  Your kids are outside playing in the snow, building frosty, laughing, throwing snowballs, and enjoying the hot coco that the neighbor, grandma Angus, just brought out to them.  You'd love to join them, but you're trapped inside again, enduring the pain, frustration, and agony of yet another migraine headache...

If you suffer from migraines, you're certainly not alone. They're relatively common, affecting an estimated 10% of the population.  You might ask, "what can be done to get rid of migraines besides drugs?"  According to a recent study, chiropractic might hold the answer to your problem.

127 migraine patients (all had at least 1 migraine headache per month) were divided into 2 groups for comparison.  Group 1: Received chiropractic adjustments at specific vertebral subluxations (spinal misalignments).  Group 2: Served as a control group and were given an inactive treatment of electrical stimulation. 

Results:  Subjects receiving chiropractic adjustments reported substantial improvement in migraine frequency, duration, disability, and medication use following two months of treatment/adjustments.  1 in 5 participants reported 90% reduction in migraines, and half reported significant improvement in migraine severity. 

Are you tired of having to deal with the effects of migraine headaches?  Are you tired of taking over the counter drugs which may have minimal results and many side effects?  Its time to fight the cause of the problem rather than just the symptoms.
