Migraines seem to be very common but they should never be considered “normal.” Too often patients tell me that they ate or drank something that triggered their migraine.  I can assure you, chocolate is NOT one of the causes of migraine headaches.

Some studies indicate that 13% of adults in the US population suffer from migraines.  Women between the ages of 35-55 tend to be the highest demographic of those who suffer from migraines.

“Looking for relief from your migraines? In need of a chiropractor for migraines? Did you know that according to the migraine research foundation, migraines are the 6th most disabling illness in the world? Migraines seem to be very common but they should never be considered “normal.” Some migraine studies indicate that 13% of adults in the US population suffer from migraines. Migraines are most commonly seen in women between the ages of 35-55. Many migraine sufferers have a hard time with daily functions and will miss work during a migraine attack. The most common approach to migraines is lying down in a dark room and waiting it out while concurrently taking different types of pain medications.

When the first few bones of the upper part of your spine are misaligned, it causes a back up of CSF and blood, which causes an increase in intracranial pressure. Studies show that when a misalignment of the upper part of the neck is corrected the pressure decreases and the CSF flow becomes normal.”
