CHIROPRACTIC FOR MIGRAINES & HEADACHES

A rather disheartening reality is that nearly 50% of migraine sufferers find little relief from conventional drug treatments. In fact, the medications often prescribed for migraines can sometimes exacerbate the problem, leading to more frequent and severe headaches.

Migraines afflict approximately 1 in 6 people worldwide. Given the limitations of standard medical treatments, researchers and healthcare professionals have been exploring alternative healthcare options to address this issue. Among these alternatives, chiropractic care has garnered substantial attention from researchers.

While it remains uncertain which individuals will respond positively to chiropractic care, and the potential influence of the placebo effect is still not fully understood, there have been instances where patients have experienced remarkable relief from migraines after only a few months of chiropractic treatment.
