Visiting a Chiropractor for Lasting Migraine Relief

Migraines are common conditions that affect roughly ten percent of the global population. In addition, millions upon millions more suffer from regular headaches. Yet, it’s often possible to treat migraines and headaches by visiting a chiropractor. Want migraine relief? Get in touch with Dynamic Motion Chiropractic, serving Winston Salem, NC, and other nearby areas. First, look at the different types of migraines and how a chiropractor can help.

Vestibular Migraines

Problems with the inner ear typically cause vestibular migraines. Your inner ear is vital for balance, so balance issues often accompany these migraines. In addition, your internal ear problems may be caused or impacted by spinal issues.

Hemiplegic Migraine

Yet, the symptoms associated with a hemiplegic migraine can feel like a stroke, including numbness on a particular side of your body. Nerve problems and spine structure issues may contribute to hemiplegic migraines. Structure adjustments may provide relief.

Tension Headaches/Migraines

Your face and skull contain many muscles. Tension in these muscles can create pressure on the head, resulting in a headache or migraine. Tension headaches are perhaps the most common type of headache, and often patients suffer reoccurring symptoms. Tension in the muscles may also cause jaw pain and other issues.

You may strain your muscles due to issues in your neck and back, including misalignment. Adjusting the spine can relieve tension, headaches, and migraines. While pain medications may mask the pain, for a time, if muscles remain strained, the pain could return.

Other Types of Migraines

You may suffer from several other migraine types. For example, horrible migraines are common in children, often accompanied by nausea and vomiting. These migraines may evolve into more classic, head-focused migraines with time.

Migraines caused by menstruation are also common. Issues with the eye, including muscle tension, can also produce migraines. Hormonal changes are also associated with migraines and headaches, including in young adulthood and later life.
