Treatment Options
Care We Use for Migraines
Is Chiropractic Safe for Migraines?
For most people, yes. We review your health history first and work alongside your physician when that is the right call.
How Can I Tell a Migraine From a Tension Headache?
Migraines often throb on one side and bring light sensitivity or nausea. Tension headaches feel like a tight band. We cover the difference on our blog.
Can a Chiropractor Help With Migraines?
Chiropractic care does not cure migraines, but many people find they come less often or ease when neck tension and posture strain are treated. We work alongside your physician and help you track your triggers.
How Can I Calm a Migraine at Home?
Rest in a dark, quiet room, drink water and try a cold pack on your forehead or the back of your neck. Note what came before it, such as poor sleep, skipped meals or long screen time, so you can spot your triggers.
