WHAT CAUSES MIGRAINES?
Migraines are complex neurological events often triggered by multiple factors—hormonal changes, stress, poor sleep, or environmental stimuli. But many people don’t realize that spinal misalignment and nerve irritation—especially in the neck—can play a critical role.
We use detailed spinal analysis to uncover physical contributors to migraines and correct them through gentle, targeted care.

FAQs:
Q: Are migraines really related to the spine?
A: Yes. Spinal misalignment—especially in the neck—can irritate nerves and restrict blood flow, increasing the likelihood and intensity of migraines.
Q: How quickly can I expect results?
A: Many patients feel improvement within a few visits. Chronic cases may take more time, depending on the underlying cause.
Q: Will this replace my migraine medication?
A: Our goal is to reduce your dependency on medication by resolving the root causes. You should consult your physician before stopping any prescriptions.
Q: What’s the difference between migraines and tension headaches?
A: Migraines are often more severe, include neurological symptoms, and last longer. We’ll help identify which type you’re experiencing and tailor care accordingly.
