You’re not just a number here.

Our patients consistently choose us because we deliver results that last, not temporary relief that fades by next week.

Chiropractic Headache Treatment Process

Your Path to Migraine Freedom

Your first visit includes a comprehensive evaluation to identify the root cause of your headaches. We examine spinal alignment, neck mobility, muscle tension patterns, and trigger points that often contribute to migraine pain.

Based on our findings, we develop your personalized treatment plan. This typically includes targeted spinal adjustments to improve nervous system function, soft tissue therapies to release muscle tension, and specific exercises to prevent future episodes. Most patients notice improvements within the first few visits, with significant reduction in both frequency and intensity over the following weeks.

We track your progress closely and adjust your care plan as needed to ensure you get the best possible results.

How effective is chiropractic care for treating migraines and headaches?

Research from Harvard Medical School shows that spinal manipulation reduces migraine frequency by an average of 1.9 days per month when added to usual medical care. Multiple studies demonstrate that chiropractic treatment can be as effective as established medications like amitriptyline, but with significantly fewer side effects.In our practice, we’ve seen patients experience dramatic improvements in both migraine frequency and intensity. Nearly 25% of patients in recent studies reported greater than 90% reduction in migraine attacks. The key is addressing the underlying spinal and nervous system dysfunction that often triggers these debilitating headaches.

What types of headaches respond best to chiropractic treatment?

Evidence strongly supports chiropractic care for migraine headaches and cervicogenic headaches (headaches originating from neck problems). Since over 75% of migraine sufferers also experience neck pain and muscle tension, addressing these musculoskeletal components often provides significant relief.Tension headaches may also respond to specific chiropractic techniques, particularly low-load craniocervical mobilization for longer-term management. During your evaluation, we determine which type of headache you’re experiencing and develop the most appropriate treatment approach. Many patients actually have a combination of headache types that benefit from our comprehensive care.

How long does it take to see results from chiropractic migraine treatment?

Most patients notice some improvement within the first 2-3 visits, though significant changes typically occur over 4-8 weeks of consistent treatment. Research studies showing the most dramatic results involved treatment periods of 2-6 months, with many patients experiencing sustained improvement even after treatment ended.Your timeline depends on factors like how long you’ve had migraines, their frequency and severity, and how well your body responds to treatment. We track your progress closely using validated assessment tools and adjust your care plan as needed. Some patients see rapid improvement, while others require more time to achieve optimal results.

Is chiropractic treatment safe for migraine sufferers during pregnancy?

Yes, chiropractic care is considered safe and effective during pregnancy for treating migraines and headaches. Many pregnant women prefer natural treatment options because migraine medications can have concerning side effects for both mother and developing baby.Pregnancy often increases migraine frequency due to hormonal changes, postural stress, and increased muscle tension. Our gentle chiropractic techniques help support proper pelvic alignment, reduce neck and shoulder tension, and improve overall nervous system function. We modify our treatment approaches specifically for pregnant patients to ensure both safety and effectiveness throughout all stages of pregnancy.

What should I expect during my first visit for headache treatment?

Your initial consultation includes a detailed discussion of your headache history, triggers, frequency, and current symptoms. We’ll perform a comprehensive examination including posture analysis, spinal alignment assessment, neck mobility testing, and identification of muscle tension patterns and trigger points.Based on our findings, we’ll explain what we discovered and how it relates to your headaches. If you’re a good candidate for care, we’ll discuss your personalized treatment plan and may begin gentle treatment that same day. We take time to answer all your questions and ensure you understand exactly how we plan to help you achieve lasting relief from your migraines.

Do you accept insurance for migraine and headache treatment?

We work with most major insurance providers to help make your care as affordable as possible. Many insurance plans cover chiropractic treatment for headaches and migraines, especially when there’s a documented musculoskeletal component to your condition.During your first visit, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and explain exactly what your plan covers before beginning treatment. We also offer a new patient special for those wanting to try our approach. Our goal is to remove any financial barriers that might prevent you from getting the natural migraine relief you deserve.
