Headaches & Migraines
If you are among the many Americans that suffer from frequent headaches, then you know how painful and inconvenient they can be. On average, around 37 million people across the nation suffer from intense headache pain called migraines. These headaches are so severe that they can cause people to miss work or school and miss out on fun activities and events. If migraines have disrupted your life at any point or are still affecting your quality of life, it will be hugely beneficial for you to seek chiropractic care from Adapt, a Raleigh chiropractor.
Chiropractic Is Natural, Safe, and Effective
When intense migraine pain hits, the first reaction is to turn to medication to relieve the pain. While this may be necessary in order to reduce additional migraine symptoms like pain, nausea, vomiting, or sensitivity to light, medication only provides a temporary solution. It doesn’t treat the root cause of migraine pain and will not keep migraines from occurring in the first place. Chiropractic care from Raleigh chiropractor Dr. Nikolai Simonsen can get to the root of the problem and safely and effectively provide a resolution to migraine pain without the risks and side effects that come with medications.
How Can Chiropractic Care Relieve Migraines?
Raleigh chiropractor Dr. Nikolai Simonsen focuses on spinal health and wellness. Subluxations, or misalignments of the spine, can lead to poor spinal health as well as poor overall health, including problems like migraines. Often times, migraine sufferers have a twisted, turned, or slightly misaligned vertebrae known as a spinal subluxation. This will disrupt nerve communication from the brain to the rest of the body, affecting how the body functions. It can also be the source of uncomfortable, debilitating migraine pain. A gentle chiropractic adjustment from Dr. Simonsen will remove spinal misalignments and treat the root cause of these headaches to bring about long-term relief. It doesn’t take much for our vertebrae to get out of alignment, which is why chiropractic care is an ongoing process that requires maintenance. Regular adjustments can keep migraines from occurring so that you can live life to its fullest once again.
Chiropractic Has Worked for Others
If you are unsure if chiropractic care is the right choice for you, know that others have also found relief from migraines with consistent chiropractic care. Case studies have been conducted to show the effectiveness of chiropractic for relieving migraine symptoms. In one case study, an 8-year-old boy complained of chronic headaches for over two years but found relief after being under regular chiropractic care. Another case study focused on a 12-year-old boy who had missed almost an entire semester of school every year for 7 years due to intense migraines along with vertigo and dizziness. After just one week of chiropractic care, his vertigo and dizziness disappeared and he experienced no more headaches or neck pain!
If you are tired of living life around your migraine pain, take the steps to find relief and schedule a consultation with Dr. Nikolai Simonsen of Adapt Chiropractic so you can get back to living your best life.
