Migraines No More with the Upper Cervical Care
Migraines are characterized by throbbing and intense pain in one or both sides of the head. They are also accompanied by vomiting, nausea, photosensitivity, loss of appetite, stomachache, dizziness, and fatigue. Episodes can last from 20 minutes to 3 days within which the sufferer might retreat to darkened places. Some cases are so severe that working, studying or handling basic tasks are impossible until the symptoms have subsided.
Migraines can be triggered by depression, lights, anxiety, alcohol, medication, caffeine, exhaustion, and insomnia. However, upper cervical injury is the fundamental cause of most cases of migraine.
Symptoms of migraines are most common among people who have experienced a sports-related injury, automobile accidents, repetitive bad posture, domestic accidents or concussion. Such incidents result in head and neck trauma, which affect the alignment of the skull and the C1 and C2 neck vertebrae. If the neck injury isn’t corrected, the central nervous system can lose its function, and the nerves in the brain stem can become inflamed and migraines are likely to occur.
Upper cervical care has provided lasting relief for many who are plagued by migraines.
